reason of imports of slag pots from China, provided for in subheadings 
7309.00.00 and 8454.20.00 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 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\ 90 FR 41986 and 90 FR 41990 (August 28, 2025).
    \3\ Commissioner David S. Johanson determined that an industry 
in the United States is threatened with material injury by reason of

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background

    The Commission instituted these investigations effective December 
31, 2024, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by WHEMCO-Steel Castings, Inc., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The 
final phase of the investigations was scheduled by the Commission 
following notification of preliminary determinations by Commerce that 
imports of slag pots 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 June 24, 2025 (90 FR 26826).\4\ The 
Commission conducted its hearing on August 27, 2025. All persons who 
requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ Due to the lapse in appropriations and ensuing cessation of 
Commission operations, all import injury investigations conducted 
under authority of Title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930 have been 
tolled pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1671d(b)(2) and 1673d(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 November 25, 2025. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5679 (November 2025), entitled Slag Pots 
from China: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-753 and 731-TA-1731 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: November 26, 2025.
Susan Orndoff,
Supervisory Attorney.
