The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that revoking the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of lightweight thermal paper from China 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 and countervailing duty orders on imports of this product from China will remain in place.
Chairman David S. Johanson and Commissioners Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, Jason E. Kearns, Randolph J. Stayin, and Amy A. Karpel voted in the affirmative.
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 Lightweight Thermal Paper from China (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-451 and 731-TA-1126 (Second Review), USITC Publication 5070, June 2020) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the reviews.
The report will be available by July 14, 2020; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library. Read More →
