SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Effective September 24, 2024, the Commission
established a general schedule for the conduct of the final phase of
its countervailing duty investigations on melamine from Germany, India,
Qatar, and Trinidad and Tobago and its antidumping duty investigations
on melamine from Germany, India, Japan, Netherlands, Qatar, and
Trinidad and Tobago (89 FR 79637, September 30, 2024), following
preliminary determinations by the U.S. Department of Commerce
(``Commerce'') that imports of melamine are being subsidized by the
governments of Germany, India, Qatar, and Trinidad and Tobago (89 FR
59045, 59053, 59055, and 59057, July 22, 2024) and imports of melamine
from Germany, India, Japan, Netherlands, Qatar, and Trinidad and Tobago
are being sold at less than fair value (89 FR 77814, 77819, 77822,
77824, 77829, and 77832, September 24, 2024). Notice of the scheduling
of the final phase of the Commission's investigations and of a public
hearing 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 September 30, 2024 (89 FR 79637). The Commission conducted
its in-person hearing on December 3, 2024. All persons who requested
the opportunity were permitted to participate.
On December 9, 2024, Commerce issued final affirmative
countervailing duty determinations with respect to melamine from
Germany, Qatar, and Trinidad and Tobago (89 FR 97586, 97593, and 97599)
and final affirmative antidumping duty determinations with respect to
melamine from Germany, Japan, Netherlands, and Trinidad and Tobago (89
FR 97584, 97590, 97598, and 97601).\1\ The Commission subsequently
issued its final determinations that an industry in the United States
was materially injured by reason of imports of melamine from Germany
and Qatar provided for in subheading 2933.61.00 of the Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (``HTSUS'') that have been found
by Commerce to be subsidized by the governments of Germany and Qatar
and by reason of imports of melamine from Germany, Japan, and
Netherlands that have been found by Commerce to be sold at LTFV. The
Commission also issued its final determinations that an industry in the
United States is threatened with material injury by reason of imports
of melamine from Trinidad and Tobago that have been found by Commerce
to be subsidized by the government of Trinidad and Tobago and sold in
the United States at LTFV (90 FR 8405, January 29, 2025).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Commerce also made a final negative determination with
respect to melamine from Qatar. Commerce also found that imports of
melamine from Qatar were not being sold at LTFV (89 FR 97592,
December 9, 2024). On December 20, 2024, the Commission published
notice of its termination of the antidumping duty investigation on
imports of melamine from Qatar (89 FR 104206).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On February 12, 2025, Commerce's final affirmative countervailing
duty and antidumping duty determinations with respect to imports of
melamine from India (90 FR 9413 and 9415) were published in the Federal
Register. Accordingly, the Commission currently is issuing a
supplemental schedule for its countervailing duty and antidumping duty
investigations on imports of melamine from India.
This supplemental schedule is as follows: the deadline for filing
supplemental party comments on Commerce's final countervailing duty and
antidumping duty determinations is 5:15 p.m. on February 24, 2025.
Supplemental party comments may address only Commerce's final
countervailing duty and antidumping duty determinations regarding
imports of melamine from India. These supplemental final comments may
not contain new factual information and may not exceed five (5) pages
in length. The supplemental staff report in the final phase of the
current investigations will be placed in the nonpublic record on March
12, 2025, and a public version will be issued thereafter.
For further information concerning this proceeding see the
Commission's notice cited above and the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201), and part
207, subparts A and C (19 CFR part 207).
Additional written submissions to the Commission, including
requests pursuant to section 201.12 of the Commission's rules, shall
not be accepted unless good cause is shown for accepting such
submissions, or unless the submission is pursuant to a specific request
by a Commissioner or Commission staff.
In accordance with sections 201.16(c) and 207.3 of the Commission's
rules, each document filed by a party to the investigations must be
served on all other parties to the investigations (as identified by
either the public or BPI service list), and a certificate of service

filing without a certificate of service.
Please note the Secretary's Office will accept only electronic
filings during this time. Filings must be made through the Commission's
Electronic Document Information System (EDIS, <a href="https://edis.usitc.gov">https://edis.usitc.gov</a>).
No in-person paper-based filings or paper copies of any electronic
filings will be accepted until further notice.
