21, 2015, the ITC notified the
Department of its final determination
pursuant to section 705(d) of the Act
that an industry in the United States is
materially injured within the meaning
of section 705(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by
reason of subsidized imports of subject
merchandise from the PRC.2
Scope of the Order
The product covered by this order is
calcium hypochlorite, regardless of form
(e.g., powder, tablet (compressed),
crystalline (granular), or in liquid
solution), whether or not blended with
other materials, containing at least 10
percent available chlorine measured by
actual weight. The scope also includes
bleaching powder and hemibasic
calcium hypochlorite.
Calcium hypochlorite has the general
chemical formulation Ca(OCl)2, but may
also be sold in a more dilute form as
bleaching powder with the chemical
formulation,
Ca(OCl)2.CaCl2.Ca(OH)2.2H2O or
hemibasic calcium hypochlorite with
the chemical formula of
2Ca(OCl)2.Ca(OH)2 or
Ca(OCl)2.0.5Ca(OH)2. Calcium
hypochlorite has a Chemical Abstract
Service (‘‘CAS’’) registry number of
7778–54–3, and a U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (‘‘EPA’’) Pesticide
Code (‘‘PC’’) Number of 014701. The
subject calcium hypochlorite has an
International Maritime Dangerous

1748, 2880, or 2208 or Class 5.1/8 UN
3485, 3486, or 3487.
Calcium hypochlorite is currently
classifiable under the subheading
2828.10.0000 of the Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States
(‘‘HTSUS’’). The subheading covers
commercial calcium hypochlorite and
other calcium hypochlorite. When

materials, calcium hypochlorite may be
entered under other tariff classifications,
such as 3808.94.5000 and 3808.99.9500,
which cover disinfectants and similar
products. While the HTSUS
