INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-692 and 731-TA-1628 (Final)]
Certain Pea Protein From China
Determinations
On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject
investigations, the United States International Trade Commission
(``Commission'') determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the
Act''), that an industry in the United States is materially injured by
reason of imports of certain pea protein from China, provided for in
subheadings 2106.10.00, 3504.00.10, 3504.00.50, and 2308.00.98 of the
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that have been found
by the U.S. Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') to be sold in the
United States at less than fair value (``LTFV''), and imports of the
subject merchandise from China that have been found to be subsidized by
the government of China.<SUP>2 3 4</SUP>
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The record is defined in Sec. 207.2(f) of the Commission's
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).
\2\ 89 FR 55557 and 55559 (July 5, 2024).
\3\ Commissioner David S. Johanson determined that a U.S.
industry is threatened with material injury by reason of subject
imports from China.
\4\ The Commission also finds that imports subject to Commerce's
affirmative critical circumstances determination are likely to
undermine seriously the remedial effect of the countervailing and
antidumping duty orders on certain pea from China. Commissioner
Rhonda K. Schmidtlein makes negative critical circumstances
determinations in the antidumping and countervailing duty
investigations. Commissioner Johanson did not assess critical
circumstances because he finds that the domestic industry is
threatened with material injury and does not determine that the
industry in the U.S. is materially injured.

Background
The Commission instituted these investigations effective July 12,
2023, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and
Commerce by Puris Proteins, LLC, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The final
phase of the investigations was scheduled by the Commission following
notification of preliminary determinations by Commerce that imports of
certain pea protein from China were subsidized within the meaning of
section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and sold at LTFV within
the meaning of 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the
scheduling of the final phase of the Commission's investigations and of
a public hearing to be held in connection therewith was given by
posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S.
International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the
notice in the Federal Register on March 5, 2024 (89 FR 15895). The
Commission conducted its hearing on June 25, 2024. All persons who
requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec. Sec.
705(b) and 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C.
1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determinations in these
investigations on August 15, 2024. The views of the Commission are
contained in USITC Publication 5529 (August 2024), entitled Certain Pea
Protein from China: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-692 and 731-TA-1628
(Final).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: August 15, 2024.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
