USITC MAKES DETERMINATIONS IN FIVE-YEAR (SUNSET) REVIEWS CONCERNING KITCHEN APPLIANCE SHELVING AND RACKS FROM CHINA

The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that revoking the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of kitchen appliance shelving and racks from China would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time. 

The Commission found two like products in these reviews: refrigerator shelving and oven racks.  With respect to each, Chair Jason E. Kearns, Vice Chair Randolph J. Stayin, and Commissioners David S. Johanson, Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, and Amy A. Karpel voted in the affirmative.

As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, the orders on imports of these products from China will remain in place. 

Today’s action comes under the five-year (sunset) review process required by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act.  See the attached page for background on these five-year (sunset) reviews.

The Commission’s public report Kitchen Appliance Shelving and Racks from China (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-458 and 731-TA-1154 (Second Review), USITC Publication 5123, September 2020) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the reviews.

The report will be available by October 21, 2020; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library. Read More→
