INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-685 and 731-TA-1599-1601 and 1603 (Final)]


Tin Mill Products From Canada, China, Germany, and South Korea; 
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 not materially injured 
or threatened with material injury, and the establishment of an 
industry in the United States is not materially retarded by reason of 
imports of tin mill products from Canada, China, and Germany, provided 
for in subheadings 7210.11.00, 7210.12.00, 7210.50.00, 7212.10.00, 
7212.50.00, 7225.99.00, and 7226.99.01 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 imports of the subject 
merchandise from China that have been found to be subsidized by the 
government of China.\2\ The Commission further finds that imports of 
these products from South Korea that Commerce has determined are sold 
in the United States at LTFV are negligible and terminates the 
antidumping duty investigation concerning South Korea.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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 January 
18, 2023, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. (``Cleveland-Cliffs''), Cleveland, 
Ohio, and the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, 
Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union 
(``USW''), Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The final phase of the 
investigations was scheduled by the Commission following notification 
of preliminary determinations by Commerce that imports of tin mill 
products from China were subsidized within the meaning of section 
703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and imports from Canada, China, 
and Germany, were sold at LTFV within the meaning of 733(b) of the Act 
(19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)).\3\ 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 
(88 FR 60484, September 1, 2023, revised 88 FR 65194, September 21, 
2023). The Commission conducted its hearing on January 4, 2024. All 
persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ Commerce published notice in the Federal Register of an 
affirmative final determination in connection with the investigation 
concerning tin mill products from South Korea (89 FR 1545, January 
10, 2024) and negative final determinations in connection with the 
investigations concerning tin mill products from the Netherlands, 
Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom (89 FR 1524, 89 FR 1526, 89 
FR 1520, 89 FR 1535, January 10, 2024). Accordingly, effective 
January 10, 2024, the Commission terminated its antidumping duty 
investigations concerning tin mill products from the Netherlands, 
Taiwan, Turkey, and the United Kingdom (89 FR 3694, January 19, 
2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    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 February 26, 2024. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5492 (February 2024), entitled Tin Mill 
Products from Canada, China, Germany, and South Korea: Investigation 
Nos. 701-TA-685 and 731-TA-1599-1601 and 1603 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.
