The US International Trade Commission has voted to conduct full five year sunset reviews concerning the countervailing duty order on light walled rectangular pipe and tube from China and the antidumping duty orders on light walled rectangular pipe and tube from China, Korea, Mexico and Turkey to determine whether revocation of these orders would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time.

With respect to imports from Mexico, all six Commissioners concluded that both the domestic group response and the respondent group responses for this review were adequate and voted for a full review.

With respect to imports from China and Korea, all six Commissioners concluded that the domestic group responses for these reviews were adequate and that the respondent group responses were inadequate, but that circumstances warranted full reviews.

With respect to imports from Turkey, Chairman Irving A Williamson and Commissioners Daniel R. Pearson, Shara L. Aranoff, and Dean A. Pinkert concluded that the domestic group response for this review was adequate and that the respondent group responses were inadequate, but that circumstances warranted a full review. With respect to imports from Turkey, Commissioners David S. Johanson and Meredith M. Broadbent concluded that both the domestic group response and the respondent group responses for this review were adequate and voted for a full review.
