ITC determination on AD duties on carbon steel butt-weld pipe fittings

The US International Trade Commission (ITC) yesterday announced its determination regarding antidumping duty investigation into certain carbon steel butt-weld pipe fittings from Brazil, China, Japan, Taiwan and Thailand. According to a notice released in the Federal Register on November 3, 2005, the ITC found that revocation of the existing antidumping duty orders on certain carbon steel butt-weld pipe fittings imported from Brazil, China, Japan, Taiwan and Thailand would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury to the US market. As a result of the ITC's decision, the existing orders on imports of carbon steel butt-weld pipe fittings from Brazil, China, Japan, Taiwan, and Thailand will remain in effect.
