ITC Announces Final Determinations for Cold Rolled, Russia Dropped from Case

The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) reported their Final Determinations in the antidumping and countervailing duty investigation on cold rolled steel from Brazil, India, Korea, United Kingdom and Russia. The ITC affirmed injury from all of the countries with the exception of Russia. Imports of cold rolled out of Russia were determined to be negligible and as a result there will be no order issued against Russia (they are free to export cold rolled to the United States).

The cases against China and Japan cold rolled were announced separately (June 22, 2016) as both countries did not participate in defending themselves and were found to have injured the U.S. steel industry. A complete look at each country and their projected cash deposit rates is shown at the end of this article.
