INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation No. 731-TA-1313 (Final)]


1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane (R-134a) From China

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 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (``R-134a'') from China, 
provided for in subheading 2903.39.20 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule 
of the United States, that have been found by the Department of 
Commerce (``Commerce'') to be sold in the United States at less than 
fair value (``LTFV'').\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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\ 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 China.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Background

    The Commission, pursuant to section 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 
1673d(b)), instituted this investigation effective March 3, 2016, 
following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and Commerce 
by the American HFC Coalition and its individual members (Amtrol, Inc., 
West Warwick, Rhode Island; Arkema, Inc., King of Prussia, 
Pennsylvania; The Chemours Company FC LLC, Wilmington, Delaware; 
Honeywell International Inc., Morristown, New Jersey; Hudson 
Technologies, Pearl River, New York; Mexichem Fluor Inc., St. Gabriel, 
Louisiana; and Worthington Industries, Inc., Columbus, Ohio) and 
District Lodge 154 of the International Association of Machinists and 
Aerospace Workers. The Commission scheduled the final phase of the 
investigation following notification of a preliminary determination by 
Commerce that imports of R-134a from China 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 November 7, 2016 
(81 FR 78186). The hearing was held in Washington, DC, on February 23, 
2017, and all persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to 
appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission made this determination pursuant to section 735(b) 
of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It completed and filed its 
determination in this investigation on April 5, 2017. The views of the 
Commission are contained in USITC Publication 4679 (April 2017),
