The Canadian International Trade Tribunal announced that it will initiate an expiry review of its order made on December 20, 2013, in Expiry Review No. RR‑2013‑001. That order, which concerns the dumping of structural tubing known as hollow structural sections originating in or exported from South Korea or Turkey, continued, in part, the Tribunal’s order made on December 22, 2008, in Expiry Review No. RR‑2008-001, continuing its finding made on December 23, 2003, in Inquiry No. NQ‑2003‑001.
The review covers products made of carbon and alloy steel, welded, in sizes up to and including 16.0 inches (406.4 mm) in outside diameter for round products and up to and including 48.0 inches (1,219.2 mm) in periphery for rectangular and square products, commonly but not exclusively made to ASTM A500, ASTM A513, CSA G.40.21‑87‑50W and comparable specifications.
In this expiry review, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will first determine whether the expiry of the order in respect of the subject goods is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of the subject goods. If the CBSA determines that the expiry of the order in respect of any goods is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping, the Tribunal will then conduct an expiry review to determine if the continued or resumed dumping is likely to result in injury. The CBSA will provide notice of its determinations within 150 days after receiving notice of the Tribunal’s decision to initiate an expiry review, that is, no later than May 9, 2019. The Tribunal will issue its order and its statement of reasons no later than October 16, 2019.
