[Investigation Nos. 731-TA-1662-1663 (Final)]
Glass Wine Bottles From China and Mexico
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 by reason of imports of glass wine bottles from China and Mexico, provided for in subheading 7010.90.50 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"). 2

2 ?90 FR 76 and 79 (January 2, 2025).
Background
The Commission instituted these investigations effective December 29, 2023, following receipt of petitions filed with the Commission and Commerce by the U.S. Glass Producers Coalition, which is comprised of Ardagh Glass Inc. (Indianapolis, Indiana) and the United Steel, Paper and Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, Energy, Allied Industrial and Service Workers International Union (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania). The Commission scheduled the final phase of the investigations following notification of a preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of glass wine bottles from China were being subsidized by the government of China (89 FR 47533, June 3, 2024). 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 (89 FR 49901, June 12, 2024, and as revised in 89 FR 63445, August 5, 2024). The Commission conducted its hearing on August 14, 2024. All persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to participate.
Although antidumping duty petitions for Chile, China, and Mexico and a countervailing duty petition for China were filed on the same day, December 29, 2023, the investigation schedules became staggered when Commerce did not align its countervailing duty investigation concerning China with its antidumping duty investigations concerning Chile, China, and Mexico and reached an earlier final countervailing duty determination. On October 9, 2024, the Commission issued a final negative determination in its countervailing duty investigation of glass wine bottles from China (89 FR 83515, October 16, 2024).
On December 10, 2024, counsel for the petitioner filed with Commerce a request to withdraw its petition regarding imports of glass wine bottles from Chile. On December 30, 2024, Commerce published notice in the Federal Register of the termination of its subject investigation concerning glass wine bottles from Chile (89 FR 106425) and the Commission subsequently terminated its antidumping duty investigation concerning glass wine bottles from Chile (90 FR 1543, January 8, 2025).
Following notification of final determinations by Commerce that imports of glass wine bottles from China and Mexico were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of section 735(a) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(a)), notice of the supplemental scheduling of the final phase of the Commission's antidumping duty investigations concerning China and Mexico 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 (90 FR 3251, January 14, 2025).
The Commission made these determinations pursuant to §?735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It completed and filed its determinations in these investigations on February 18, 2025. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 5588 (February 2025), entitled Glass Wine Bottles from China and Mexico: Investigation Nos. 731-TA-1662-1663 (Final).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: February 18, 2025.
