    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
        Background.--In November 2024, the Commission determined that an
    industry in the United States was materially injured by reason of
    imports of aluminum lithographic printing plates from China and Japan
    that were sold in the United States at less than fair value and
    subsidized by the government of China. Aluminum Lithographic Printing
    Plates from China and Japan, Inv. Nos. 701-TA-694 and 731-TA-1641-1642
    (Final), USITC Pub. No. 5559 (Nov. 2024). Respondents Fujifilm North
    America Corporation, Fujifilm Corporation, and Fujifilm Printing Plate
    (China) Co. Ltd. contested the Commission's determinations before the
    U.S. Court of International Trade (``CIT''). The CIT remanded for the
    Commission to reconsider ``whether {Fujifilm Manufacturing USA, Inc.
    (``Fujifilm Greenwood''){time}  is a related party,'' discussing ``the
    four factors in 19 U.S.C. 1677(4)(B)(ii),'' and whether ``appropriate
    circumstances exist to exclude Fujifilm Greenwood from the domestic
    industry,'' addressing ``how the instant facts are an `appropriate'
    case for excluding a related party in light of the example provided in
    the legislative history . . . .'' Fujifilm N. Am. Corp. v. United
    States, Court No. 24-00251, Slip Op. 26-17 (Ct. Int'l Trade Feb. 18,
    2026).
        Participation in the remand proceedings.--Only those persons who

    investigations. The Secretary will maintain a service list containing
    the names and addresses of all persons or their representatives who are
    parties to the remand proceedings, and the Secretary will maintain a
    separate list of those authorized to receive BPI under the
    administrative protective order during the remand proceedings.
