In a vote on January 20, 2016 the U.S. International Trade Commissionrenewed the existing anti-dumping order against imports of potassiumpermanganate from China.
In a Federal Register notice published on October 25, 2010 the U.S. Department of Commerce renewed the existing anti-dumping order against imports of potassium permanganate from China.
The original order was imposed on January 31, 1984, with the renewed order thus exceeding the five-year 'sunset' standard that generally applies to trade-remedy measures under WTO agreements (i.e., article 21.3 of the Agreement on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures and article 11.3 of the Anti-dumping Agreement).
