he United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that a U.S. industry is not materially injured or threatened with material injury by reason of imports of steel nails from India, Oman, and Turkey that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has determined are subsidized.
The Commission further found that the imports of these products from Sri Lanka that Commerce has determined are subsidized are negligible and voted to terminate the countervailing duty investigation concerning Sri Lanka.
Chairman David S. Johanson and Commissioners Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, Jason E. Kearns, Randolph J. Stayin, and Amy A. Karpel voted in the negative with respect to the countervailing duty investigations for India, Oman, and Turkey. They made a finding of negligibility with respect to the countervailing duty investigation involving Sri Lanka.
As a result of the Commission’s negative determinations, no countervailing duty orders will be imposed on imports for India, Oman, and Turkey. As a result of the finding of negligibility, the countervailing duty investigation regarding imports from Sri Lanka will be terminated.
The Commission’s public report Steel Nails from India, Oman, Sri Lanka, and Turkey (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-673-675 and 677 (Final), USITC Publication 5370, September 2022) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.
