U.S. DOC Initiates Circumvention Probe on Cold Rolled
Written by John Packard
On Monday the U.S. Department of Commerce initiated an investigation against China for trying to circumvent antidumping and countervailing duty orders. The DOC was responding to petitions filed by the domestic steel industry on cold rolled. The DOC also initiated an investigation on CORE (corrosion resistant) which SMU will cover in a separate article.
There are some interesting comments made in the DOC response that SMU readers will need to understand as they go about their normal buying of foreign steel products.
