Written by John Packard
On June 3rd Nucor, US Steel, ArcelorMittal USA, AK Steel, Steel Dynamics and California Steel filed antidumping and countervailing duty petition against China, Taiwan, India, South Korea and Italy on corrosion-resistant steels. To put this into layman’s terms the domestic mills filed a dumping (AD) and CVD suit on producers of galvanized and Galvalume (zinc-aluminum) products.
There are provisions in the law that allow for the petitioners to request an extension of the preliminary determination findings which are currently scheduled for August 27th. Submissions have to be made 25 days prior to the August 27th deadline.
