Background

    The Commission instituted this investigation effective January 13, 
2022, following receipt of antidumping and countervailing duty 
petitions filed with the Commission and Commerce by Chemtrade Chemicals 
US LLC, Parsippany, New Jersey. The Commission established a general 
schedule for the conduct of the final phase of its investigations of 
sodium nitrite from India and Russia following publication of a 
preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of sodium nitrite 
were subsidized by the government of Russia. Notice of the scheduling 
of the final phase of the Commission's investigations 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 April 20, 2022 (87 FR 23567). In light of the restrictions 
on access to the Commission building due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 
Commission conducted its hearing through written testimony and video 
conference on June 21, 2022. All persons who requested the opportunity 
were permitted to participate.
    The investigation schedules became staggered when Commerce did not 
align its countervailing duty investigation on Russia with either of 
the corresponding antidumping duty investigations; did not postpone the 
final determination of its antidumping duty investigation on Russia; 
and aligned its countervailing duty investigation on sodium nitrite 
from India with its postponed antidumping duty investigation regarding 
India. On August 15, 2022, the Commission issued a final affirmative 
determination in its countervailing duty investigation of sodium 
nitrite from Russia (87 FR 51141, August 19, 2022). Following 
publication of a final determination by Commerce that imports of sodium 
nitrite from Russia were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of 
section 735(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(a)), notice of the 
supplemental scheduling of the final phase of the Commission's 
antidumping duty investigation on Russia 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 23, 2022 (87 FR 58136).
    The Commission made this determination pursuant to Sec.  735(b) of 
the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determination 
in this investigation on October 27, 2022. The views of the Commission 
are contained in USITC Publication 5379 (October 2022), entitled Sodium 
Nitrite from Russia: Investigation No. 731-TA-1586 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: October 28, 2022.
Katherine Hiner,
Acting Secretary to the Commission.
