Trade Victory for USW and Industry--ITC Ruling Paves Way for Duties on Seamless Pipe from China

摘要

Chinese makers of seamless carbon and alloy steel line and pressure pipe sold in the United States at less than fair value arc being ordered to pay antidumping and countervailing duties. "This is the sixth successful trade case against Chinese imported pipe products that we"ve participated in since June 2007," said International President Leo W. Gerard. "All affirm the predatory practices of dumping and subsidy that steal good American jobs." The U.S. International Trade Commission paved the way for the duties on Oct. 15 when its six members voted unanimously that the practice threatened the U.S. industry with material injury.
