Background
On May 31, 2017, DAK Americas LLC,
Charlotte, NC; Nan Ya Plastics
Corporation, America, Lake City, SC;
and Auriga Polymers Inc., Charlotte, NC
filed a petition 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 fine denier polyester staple fiber from
China and India and LTFV imports of
fine denier polyester staple fiber from
China, India, Korea, Taiwan, and
Vietnam. Accordingly, effective May 31,
2017, the Commission, pursuant to
sections 703(a) and 733(a) of the Act (19

the Department of Commerce
terminated its antidumping duty
investigation of imports of fine denier
polyester staple fiber from Vietnam,
following a request for withdrawal of
the petition. Accordingly, the
Commission has also terminated its
antidumping duty investigation
concerning fine denier polyester staple
fiber from Vietnam (Investigation No.
731–TA–1373).
Notice of the institution of the
Commission’s investigations and of a
public conference to be held in
connection therewith was given by

of the Secretary, U.S. International
Trade Commission, Washington, DC,
