The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) today announced its injury determinations in its antidumping and countervailing duty investigations concerning hardwood and decorative plywood from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam that the U.S. Department of Commerce (Commerce) determined are subsidized and sold in the United States at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China, Indonesia, and Vietnam.

The USITC defined three domestic like products in these investigations. 

Chairman Brett W. Doyle and Commissioners Jason S. Kearns and Peter-Anthony Pappas voted in the affirmative regarding hardwood and decorative plywood (excluding all softwood structural plywood) from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam. As a result of the USITC’s affirmative determinations regarding hardwood and decorative plywood, Commerce will issue antidumping and countervailing duty orders on imports of this product from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam.

Chairman Doyle and Commissioners Kearns and Pappas found that the imports of softwood structural plywood downfall and stamped and certified softwood structural plywood from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam that Commerce determined are sold at less than fair value and subsidized by the governments of China, Indonesia, and Vietnam are negligible, and voted to terminate the antidumping and countervailing duty investigations for these products from China, Indonesia, and Vietnam. 

Commissioners Bart Thanhauser and David Foley Jr. did not participate in today’s vote.
