[Investigation No. 731–TA–1110 

(Preliminary)] 

Sodium Hexametaphosphate (SHMP) 

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 

section 733(a) of the Tariff Act of 1930 

(19 U.S.C. 1673b(a)) (the Act), that there 

is a reasonable indication that an 

industry in the United States is 

materially injured by reason of imports 

from China of sodium 

hexametaphosphate, provided for in 

subheadings 2835.39.50 and 3823.90.39 

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). 

Commencement of Final Phase 

Investigation 

Pursuant to § 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

provided in section 207.21 of the 

Commission’s rules, upon notice from 

the Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) of an affirmative

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

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 February 8, 2007, a petition was 

filed with the Commission and 

Commerce by ICL Performance 

Products, LP, St. Louis, MO, and 

Innophos, Inc., Cranbury, NJ, alleging 

that an industry in the United States is 

materially injured or threatened with 

material injury by reason of LTFV 

imports of sodium hexametaphosphate 

from China. Accordingly, effective 

February 8, 2007, the Commission 

instituted antidumping duty 

investigation No. 731–TA–1110 

(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 72 FR 7458, 

February 15, 2007. The conference was 

held in Washington, DC, on March 1, 

2007, and all persons who requested the 

opportunity were permitted to appear in 

person or by counsel. 

The Commission transmitted its 

determination in this investigation to 

the Secretary of Commerce on March 26, 

2007. The views of the Commission are 

contained in USITC Publication 3912 

(April 2007), entitled Sodium 

Hexametaphosphate from China: 

Investigation No. 731–TA–1110 

(Preliminary). 

Issued: April 3, 2007.
