INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMISSION

[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-614 and 731-TA-1431 (Final)]


Magnesium From Israel

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 magnesium from Israel, provided for in subheadings 
8104.11.00, 8104.19.00, and 8104.30.00 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 
government of Israel.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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, pursuant to sections 705(b) and 735(b) of the Act 
(19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)), instituted these 
investigations effective October 24, 2018, following receipt of 
petitions filed with the Commission and Commerce by US Magnesium LLC, 
Salt Lake City, Utah. The final phase of the investigations was 
scheduled by the Commission following notification of preliminary 
determinations by Commerce that imports of magnesium from Israel were 
subsidized within the meaning of section 703(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 
1671b(b)) and 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 
August 5, 2019 (84 FR 38057). The hearing was held in Washington, DC, 
on November 21, 2019, and all persons who requested the opportunity 
were permitted to appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission made these determinations pursuant to sections 
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 January 13, 2020. The views of the Commission are 
contained in USITC Publication 5009 (January 2020), entitled Magnesium 
from Israel: Investigation Nos. 701-TA-614 and 731-TA-1431 (Final).

    By order of the Commission.
