The US Department of Commerce (DOC) has initiated an investigation into whether the present quantities or circumstances of vanadium imports into the United States threaten to impair the national security.
This decision follows review of the petition filed by domestic producers, AMG Vanadium LLC (Cambridge, OH), and US Vanadium LLC (Hot Springs, AR), on November 19, 2019, requesting that the Department of Commerce launch an investigation into vanadium imports under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962, as amended.
