For a list of the issues raised by interested parties in the Issues and Decision Memorandum, see Appendix II. Methodology Commerce conducted this investigation in accordance with section 701 of the Tariff Act of 1920, as amended (the Act). For each of the subsidy programs found to be countervailable, Commerce determines Determination, 89 FR 54429 (July 1, 2024) (Preliminary Determination) and accompanying Preliminary Decision Memorandum (PDM). 2 See Memorandum, ‘‘Tolling of Deadlines for Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings,’’ dated July 22, 2024. 3 See Memorandum, ‘‘Issues and Decision Memorandum for the Final Affirmative Determination of the Countervailing Duty Investigation of Certain Paper Plates from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam,’’ dated concurrently with, and hereby adopted by, this notice (Issues and Decision Memorandum).

Final Affirmative Determination of Critical Circumstances, in Part In accordance with sections 703(e)(1) and 776(a) and 776(b) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.206, Commerce continues to find that critical circumstances exist with respect to imports of paper plates from Vietnam for Xie Li Vietnam International Company Limited (Xie Li), the non-responsive companies,7 and all other producers and exporters. In addition, we continue to find that critical circumstances do not exist with respect to imports of paper plates from Go-Pak.
