The Canadian International Trade Tribunal announced today that will initiate an expiry review of its order made on January 8, 2013 concerning the dumping of hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high‑strength low-alloy plate from China.
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) will first determine, by March 2, 2018, whether the expiry of the order 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 is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping, the Tribunal will conduct an expiry review to determine if the expiry is likely to result in injury.
The products under review include hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high‑strength low-alloy plate not further manufactured than hot-rolled, heat-treated or not, in cut lengths, in widths from 24 in. (+/‑ 610 mm) to 152 in. (+/- 3,860 mm) inclusive, and thicknesses from 0.187 in. (+/‑ 4.75 mm) to 4.0 in. (+/- 101.6 mm) inclusive, but excluding plate for use in the manufacture of pipe and tube (also known as skelp), plate in coil form, plate having a rolled, raised figure at regular intervals on the surface (also known as floor plate) and plate produced to American Society for Testing and Materials specifications A515 and A516M/A516, grade 70 (also known as pressure vessel quality plate) in thicknesses greater than 3.125 in. (+/- 79.3 mm).
