INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-732 and 731-TA-1701 (Preliminary)]
Tungsten Shot 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 there is a reasonable indication that the establishment of
an industry in the United States is materially retarded by reason of
imports of tungsten shot from China, provided for in subheadings
9306.29.00 and 8101.99.80 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States, that are alleged to be sold in the United States at less
than fair value (``LTFV'') and alleged to be subsidized by the
government of China.<SUP>2 3</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 65852 and 89 FR 65856 (August 13, 2024).
\3\ Commissioner Jason E. Kearns did not participate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Commencement of Final Phase Investigations
Pursuant to section 207.18 of the Commission's rules, the
Commission also gives notice of the commencement of the final phase of
its investigations. The Commission will issue a final phase notice of
scheduling, which will be published in the Federal Register as provided
in Sec. 207.21 of the Commission's rules, upon notice from the U.S.
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') of affirmative preliminary
determinations in the investigations under Sec. Sec. 703(b) or 733(b)
of the Act, or, if the preliminary determinations are negative, upon
notice of affirmative final determinations in those investigations
under Sec. Sec. 705(a) or 735(a) of the Act. Parties that filed
entries of appearance in the preliminary phase of the investigations
need not enter a separate appearance for the final phase of the
investigations. Any other party may file an entry of appearance for the
final phase of the investigations after publication of the final phase
notice of scheduling. Industrial users, and, if the merchandise under
investigation is sold at the retail level, representative consumer
organizations have the right to appear as parties in Commission
antidumping and countervailing duty investigations. The Secretary will
prepare a public service list containing the names and addresses of all
persons, or their representatives, who are parties to the
investigations. As provided in section 207.20 of the Commission's
rules, the Director of the Office of Investigations will circulate
draft questionnaires for the final phase of the investigations to
parties to the investigations, placing copies on the Commission's
Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>),
for comment.
Background
On July 10, 2024, Tungsten Parts Wyoming, Inc., Laramie, Wyoming,
filed petitions with the Commission and Commerce, alleging that the
establishment of a domestic industry is materially retarded or that an
industry in the United States is materially injured or threatened with
material injury by reason of subsidized and LTFV imports of tungsten
shot from China. Accordingly, effective July 10, 2024, the Commission
instituted countervailing duty investigation No. 701-TA-732 and
antidumping duty investigation No. 731-TA-1701 (Preliminary).
Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigations and of
a public conference 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 of July 16, 2024 (89 FR 57941). The
Commission conducted its conference on July 31, 2024. All persons
[[Page 70667]]
who requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec. Sec.
703(a) and 733(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(a) and 1673b(a)). It
completed and filed its determinations in these investigations on
August 26, 2024. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC
Publication 5542 (August 2024), entitled Tungsten Shot from China:
Investigation Nos. 701-TA-732 and 731-TA-1701 (Preliminary).
By order of the Commission.
