INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation No. 731-TA-1315 (Preliminary)]


Ferrovanadium From Korea

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 there is a reasonable indication that an industry in the 
United States is materially injured by reason of imports of 
ferrovanadium from Korea, provided for in subheading 7202.92.00 of the 
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, that are alleged to be 
sold in the United States at less than fair value (``LTFV'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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

Commencement of Final Phase Investigation

    Pursuant to section 207.18 of the Commission's rules, the 
Commission also gives notice of the commencement of the final phase of 
its investigation. The Commission will issue a final phase notice of 
scheduling, which will be published in the Federal Register as provided 
in section 207.21 of the Commission's rules, upon notice from the 
Department of Commerce (``Commerce'') of an affirmative preliminary 
determination in the investigation under section 733(b) of the Act, or, 
if the preliminary determination is negative, upon notice of an 
affirmative final determination in that investigation under section 
735(a) of the Act. Parties that filed entries of appearance in the 
preliminary phase of the investigation need not enter a separate 
appearance for the final phase of the investigation. Industrial users, 
and, if the merchandise under investigation is sold at the retail 
level, representative consumer organizations have the right to appear 
as parties in Commission antidumping and countervailing duty 
investigations. The Secretary will prepare a public service list 
containing the names and addresses of all persons, or their 
representatives, who are parties to the investigation.

Background

    On March 28, 2016, the Vanadium Producers and Reclaimers 
Association and its members AMG Vanadium, LLC, Cambridge, Ohio; Bear 
Metallurgical Company, Butler, Pennsylvania; Gulf Chemical & 
Metallurgical Corporation, Freeport, Texas; and Evraz Stratcor, Inc., 
Hot Springs, Arkansas, filed a petition with the Commission and 
Commerce, alleging that an industry in the United States is materially 
injured and threatened with material injury by reason of LTFV imports 
of ferrovanadium from Korea. Accordingly, effective March 28, 2016, the 
Commission, pursuant to section 733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 
U.S.C. Sec.  1673b(a)), instituted antidumping duty investigation No. 
731-TA-1315 (Preliminary).
    Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigation and of 
a public conference 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 April 1, 2016 (81 FR 18888). The 
conference was held in Washington, DC, on April 18, 2016, and all 
persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in 
person or by counsel.
    The Commission made this determination pursuant to section 733(a) 
of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. Sec.  1673b(a)). It completed and 
filed its determination in this investigation on May 12, 2016. The 
views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 4611 (May 
2016), entitled Ferrovanadium from Korea: Investigation No. 731-TA-1315
