Anti-dumping

In a petition filed on May 29, 2009, two U.S. firms sought the imposition of anti-dumping and countervailing duties on imports of steel grating from China. The United States imported $90.7 million worth of this product from China in 2008. No estimates of the dumping or subsidy rates were given in the public version of the petition.
The U.S. Department of Commerce found margins of 62.46% (subsidy) and 136.76-145.15% (dumping). Orders were issued after the U.S. International Trade Commission reached a final affirmative injury determination on June 24, 2010.
