Brass Rod from Israel Injures U.S. Industry, Says USITC

The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today determined that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of brass rod from Israel that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) has determined are sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the Government of Israel.

Chair Amy Karpel and Commissioners Rhonda K. Schmidtlein and Jason E. Kearns voted in the affirmative. Commissioner David S. Johanson voted in the negative.

As a result of the Commission’s affirmative determinations, Commerce will issue antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of this product from Israel. 

The Commission’s public report Brass Rod from Israel (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-687 and 731-TA-1614 (Final), USITC Publication 5545, September 2024) will contain the views of the Commission and information developed during the investigation.

The report will be available by October 17, 2024; when available, it may be accessed on the USITC website at: http://pubapps.usitc.gov/applications/publogs/qry_publication_loglist.asp.

Status of proceedings, links to relevant documents, and additional information for these investigations can be found at the Commission’s Investigations Database System (IDS).
