The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of walk-behind lawn mowers from China and Vietnam that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the government of China.
Chairman Jason E. Kearns, Vice Chairman 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 U.S. Department of Commerce will continue with its antidumping and countervailing duty investigations concerning imports of this product from China and Vietnam, with its preliminary countervailing duty determination due on or about August 19, 2020, and its antidumping duty determinations due on or about November 2, 2020.
The Commission’s public report Walk-Behind Lawn Mowers from China and Vietnam (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-648 and 731-TA-1521-1522 (Preliminary), USITC Publication 5091, July 2020) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigations.
The report will be available after August 7, 2020; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: https://www.usitc.gov/commission_publications_library. Read More →
