The
US International Trade Commission (USITC) determined that revoking the existing antidumping duty order on cut‐to‐length carbon steel plate from China and terminating the suspended investigations on cut‐to‐length carbon steel plate from Russia and Ukraine would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time.
As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, the existing antidumping duty order on imports of this product from China and the existing suspension agreements concerning these products from Russia and Ukraine will remain in place.
Vice Chairman Dean A. Pinkert and Commissioners Irving A. Williamson, David S. Johanson, and Rhonda K. Schmidtlein voted in the affirmative. Chairman Meredith M. Broadbent and Commissioner F. Scott Kieff voted in the affirmative with respect to China and Russia and in the negative with respect to Ukraine.
The Commission’s public report Cut-to-Length Carbon Steel Plate from China, Russia, and Ukraine (Inv. Nos. 731-TA-753, 754, and 756 (Third Review), USITC Publication 4581, December 2015) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the reviews.
