The U.S. International Trade Commission Commission (USITC) today determined that revoking the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on quartz surface products 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 orders on imports of these products from China will remain in place.
Chair Amy A. Karpel and Commissioners David S. Johanson, Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, and Jason E. Kearns 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 Quartz Surface Products from China (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-606 and 731-TA-1416 (Review), USITC Publication 5578, January 2025) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the reviews.
The report will be available by February 14,2025; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library.
