INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-776 and 731-TA-1761 (Preliminary)]


Unwrought Pallidum From Russia; 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 an industry in the 
United States is materially injured by reason of imports of unwrought 
palladium from Russia, provided for in subheading 7110.21.00 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 
subsidized by the government of Russia.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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 41032, August 22, 2025 and 90 FR 41039, August 22, 
2025.

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 30, 2025, Stillwater Mining Company and the United Steel, 
Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Industrial and 
Services Workers International Union, AFL-CIO, CLC filed petitions with 
the Commission and Commerce, alleging that an industry in the United 
States is materially injured or threatened with material injury by 
reason of subsidized imports of unwrought palladium from Russia and 
LTFV imports of unwrought palladium from Russia. Accordingly, effective 
July 30, 2025, the Commission instituted countervailing duty 
investigation No. 701-TA-776 and antidumping duty investigation No. 
731-TA-1761 (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 August 4, 2025 (90 FR 36451). The 
Commission conducted its conference on August 20, 2025. All persons 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 
September 15, 2025. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC 
Publication 5671 (September 2025), entitled Unwrought Palladium from 
Russia: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-776 and 731-TA-1761 (Preliminary).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: September 15, 2025.
