INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION
[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-793 and 731-TA-1789 (Preliminary)]
Tris (Hydroxymethyl) Aminomethane and Tris (Hydroxymethyl)
Aminomethane Hydrochloride (``Tris and Tris HCl'') From China;
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 Tris and
Tris HCl from China, provided for in subheading 2922.19.96 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 China that are alleged to be
subsidized by the government of China.\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 28559 and 91 FR 28566 (May 18, 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
[[Page 35266]]
(``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 April 21, 2026, Advancion Corporation (``Advancion''), Buffalo
Grove, Illinois, 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 Tris
and Tris HCl from China and LTFV imports of Tris and Tris HCl from
China. Accordingly, effective April 21, 2026, the Commission instituted
countervailing duty investigation No. 701-TA-793 and antidumping duty
investigation No. 731-TA-1789 (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 April 24, 2026 (91 FR 22166). The
Commission conducted its conference on May 12, 2026. 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 June
5, 2026. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication
5751 (June 2026), entitled Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and
Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane Hydrochloride (``Tris and Tris HCl'')
from China: Investigation Nos. 701 TA-793 and 731-TA-1789
(Preliminary).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: June 5, 2026.
