Determination
On the basis of the record 1 developed
in the subject investigation, the United
States International Trade Commission
(Commission) determines, pursuant to
section 735(b) of the Tariff Act of 1930
(19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)) (the Act), that an
industry in the United States is not
materially injured or threatened with
material injury, and the establishment of
an industry in the United States is not
materially retarded, by reason of
imports from France of sodium metal,
provided for in subheading 2805.11.00
of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States, that have been found
by the Department of Commerce
(Commerce) to be sold in the United
States at less than fair value (LTFV).
Background
The Commission instituted this
investigation effective October 23, 2007,
following receipt of a petition filed with
the Commission and Commerce by E.I.
du Pont de Nemours and Co.,
Wilmington, DE. The final phase of the
investigation was scheduled by the
Commission following notification of a
preliminary determination by
Commerce that imports of sodium metal
from France were being sold at LTFV
within the meaning of section 733(b) of
the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of
the scheduling of the final phase of the
Commission’s investigation 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 of June 11, 2008 (73 FR 33115).
The hearing was held in Washington,
DC, on October 14, 2008, and all
persons who requested the opportunity
were permitted to appear in person or
by counsel.
The Commission transmitted its
determination in this investigation to
the Secretary of Commerce on
November 24, 2008. The views of the
Commission are contained in USITC
Publication 4045 (November 2008),
entitled sodium metal from France:
Investigation No. 731–TA–1135 (Final).
Issued: November 25, 2008.
