U.S. Continues Investigations Into Imported Hardwood Plywood

On July 3, The U.S. International Trade Commission "determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by imports of hardwood and decorative plywood from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam that are allegedly sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China, Indonesia, and Vietnam."

The decision was unanimous: all three commissioners voted yes. As a result, the U.S. Department of Commerce will continue its investigations of imports of hardwood and decorative plywood from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam. Commerce will determine preliminary countervailing duties on or about August 15 and preliminary antidumping duties on or about October 29.
