INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-778 and 731-TA-1764 (Preliminary)]
Fresh Mushrooms From Canada
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 fresh
mushrooms from Canada, provided for in subheading 0709.51.01 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
imports of the subject merchandise from Canada that are alleged to be
subsidized by the government of Canada.\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\ 91 FR 663 and 91 FR 668 (January 8, 2026).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 September 16, 2025, the Fresh Mushrooms Fair Trade Coalition and
its individual members \3\ 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 fresh mushrooms from Canada and LTFV imports of fresh
mushrooms from Canada. Accordingly, effective September 16, 2025, the
Commission instituted countervailing duty investigation No. 701-TA-778
and antidumping duty investigation No. 731-TA-1764 (Preliminary).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ The individual members of the Fresh Mushrooms Fair Trade
Coalition are: Giorgio Fresh Co. (including Donna Bella Farms LLC
and Giorgi Mushroom Co.); J-M Farms LLC; Kennett Square Mushroom
Operation LLC; Modern Mushroom Farms, Inc.; Needham's Mushroom
Farms, Inc.; and Sher-Rockee Mushroom Farms.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 September 19, 2025 (90 FR 45245).\4\
The Commission conducted its conference on November 21, 2025. All
persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ Due to the lapse in appropriations and ensuing cessation of
Commission operations, the Commission tolled its schedule for this
proceeding. The schedule was revised in a subsequent notice
published in the Federal Register on November 19, 2025 (90 FR
52094). The Commission subsequently published a second revised
schedule on January 16, 2026 (91 FR 2151) to conform with Commerce's
new schedule after Commerce extended the deadline for its initiation
determinations from December 15, 2025 to January 2, 2026 (90 FR
60059, December 23, 2025).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
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
January 16, 2026. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC
Publication 5695 (January 2026), entitled Fresh Mushrooms from Canada:
Investigation Nos. 701-TA-778 and 731-TA-1764 (Preliminary).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: January 16, 2025.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
