ITC - Wind Tower Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Orders Review
Summary
The US International Trade Commission has determined that revoking antidumping and countervailing duty orders on utility scale wind towers from Canada, Indonesia, South Korea, and Vietnam would likely lead to the continuation or recurrence of material injury to the US industry. This decision maintains existing trade protections for domestic manufacturers.
What changed
The United States International Trade Commission (ITC) has issued a final determination in its five-year reviews of antidumping and countervailing duty orders concerning utility scale wind towers from Canada, Indonesia, South Korea, and Vietnam. The Commission found that revoking these orders would likely result in the continuation or recurrence of material injury to the domestic industry. This decision means that the existing antidumping and countervailing duties will remain in place.
This determination has significant implications for importers and domestic manufacturers of utility scale wind towers. The existing duty orders remain in effect, continuing to impose financial burdens on imports from the specified countries and providing protection to the US industry. Regulated entities involved in the import or domestic production of these goods should continue to comply with the existing duty requirements. No immediate new actions are required beyond maintaining compliance with current trade remedy measures.
What to do next
- Continue compliance with existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on utility scale wind towers.
- Monitor any future trade remedy reviews or challenges related to these products.
