Aluminum Foil From Armenia, Brazil, Oman, Russia, and Turkey; 
Determinations

    On the basis of the record \1\ developed in the subject 
investigations, 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 aluminum foil from Armenia, Brazil, Oman, Russia, 
and Turkey, provided for in subheadings 7607.11.30, 7607.11.60, 
7607.11.90, and 7607.19.60 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''), and to be subsidized by the governments of Oman and Turkey.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The record is defined in Sec.  207.2(f) of the Commission's 
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 207.2(f)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background

    The Commission instituted these investigations effective September 
29, 2020, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by the Aluminum Association Trade Enforcement Working Group, 
Arlington, Virginia and its individual members--Gr[auml]nges Americas 
Inc., Franklin, Tennessee; JW Aluminum Company, Daniel Island, South 
Carolina; and Novelis Corporation, Atlanta, Georgia. The final phase of 
the investigations was scheduled by the Commission following 
notification of preliminary determinations by Commerce that imports of 
aluminum foil from Oman and Turkey were subsidized within the meaning 
of section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and imports of 
aluminum foil from Armenia, Brazil, Oman, Russia, and Turkey were sold 
at LTFV within the meaning of 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). 
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 on May 25, 2021 (86 FR 
28146). 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 September 14, 
2021. All persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to 
participate.
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to Sec. Sec.  
705(b) and 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C. 
1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determinations in these 
investigations on November 5, 2021. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5235 (November 2021), entitled Aluminum 
Foil from Armenia, Brazil, Oman, Russia, and Turkey: Investigation Nos. 
701-TA-658-659 and 731-TA-1538-1542 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: November 5, 2021.
