The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that revoking the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of steel concrete reinforcing bar from Mexico and Turkey 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 this product from Mexico and Turkey will remain in place.
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.
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 Steel Concrete Reinforcing Bar from Mexico and Turkey (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-502 and 731-TA-1227 (Review), USITC Publication 5122, October 2020) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the reviews.
The report will be available by October 28, 2020; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library. Read More→
