INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-712-714 and 731-TA-1679-1681 (Final)]


Ferrosilicon From Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia

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 ferrosilicon from Brazil, Kazakhstan, and 
Malaysia, provided for in subheadings 7202.21 and 7202.29 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 subsidized by the 
governments of Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia.<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\ 90 FR 14075, 14077, 14105, 14108, 14112, and 14114 (March 
28, 2025).
    \3\ The Commission also finds that imports subject to Commerce's 
affirmative critical circumstances determinations are not likely to 
undermine seriously the remedial effect of the countervailing duty 
orders on Brazil and Malaysia.

Background

    The Commission instituted these investigations effective March 28, 
2024, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by CC Metals and Alloy, LLC, Calvert City, Kentucky, and 
Ferroglobe USA, Inc., Beverly, Ohio. The Commission scheduled the final 
phase of the investigations following notification of preliminary 
determinations by Commerce that imports of ferrosilicon from Russia 
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 of 
July 9, 2024 (89 FR 56407). All persons who requested the opportunity 
were permitted to participate.
    The investigation schedules became staggered when Commerce 
postponed its preliminary determinations for the antidumping and 
countervailing duty investigations with respect to Brazil, Kazakhstan, 
and Malaysia, but not its preliminary determinations for the 
antidumping and countervailing duty investigations with respect to 
Russia. Following notification of final determinations by Commerce that 
imports of ferrosilicon from Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia were 
being subsidized by the governments of Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia 
within the meaning of section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) 
and sold at LTFV within the meaning of section 735(a) of the Act (19 
U.S.C. 1673d(a)), notice of the supplemental scheduling of the final 
phase of the Commission's countervailing duty and antidumping duty 
investigations 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 April 4, 2025 
(90 FR 14869).
    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 May 12, 2025. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5620 (May 2025), entitled Ferrosilicon 
from Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-712-
714 and 731-TA-1679-1681 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: May 12, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
