Low Speed Personal Transportation Vehicles From China; 
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 materially injured by 
reason of imports of low speed personal transportation vehicles from 
China, provided for in subheadings 8703.10.50, 8703.90.01,

[[Page 38177]]

8706.00.15, and 8707.10.00 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 imports of the subject merchandise from China that have 
been found to be subsidized by the government of China.\2\ \3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \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\ 90 FR 26530, June 23, 2025; 90 FR 26536, June 23, 2025.
    \3\ The Commission also finds that imports subject to Commerce's 
affirmative critical circumstances determination are likely to 
undermine seriously the remedial effect of the countervailing and 
antidumping duty orders on how speed personal transportation 
vehicles from China (Commissioner David S. Johanson dissenting).

Commerce by the American Personal Transportation Vehicle Manufacturers 
Coalition.\4\ The final phase of the investigations was scheduled by

Commerce that imports of low speed personal transportation vehicles 
from China 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
