INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation No. 731-TA-1534 (Final)]


Methionine From France

Determination

    On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject 
investigation, the United States International Trade Commission 
(``Commission'') determines, pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930 (``the 
Act''), that an industry in the United States is materially injured by 
reason of imports of methionine from France, provided for in 
subheadings 2930.40.00 and 2930.90.46 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule 
of the United States, that have been found by the U.S. Department of 
Commerce (``Commerce'') to be sold in the United States at less than 
fair value (``LTFV'').2 3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The record is defined in Sec.  207.2(f) of the Commission's 
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).
    \2\ 86 FR 26697 (May 17, 2021).
    \3\ The Commission also finds that imports subject to Commerce's 
affirmative critical circumstances determination are not likely to 
undermine seriously the remedial effect of the antidumping duty 
order on France.

Background

    The Commission instituted this investigation effective July 29, 
2020, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Novus International, Inc., St. Charles, Missouri. The 
Commission scheduled the final phase of the investigation following 
notification of a preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of 
methionine 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 March 9, 2021 (86 FR 13585). In light 
of the restrictions on access to the Commission building due to the 
COVID-19 pandemic, the Commission conducted its hearing by video 
conference on May 11, 2021. All persons who requested the opportunity 
were permitted to participate.
    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 June 30, 2021. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5206 (June 2021),
