The Department of Commerce (DOC) and the International Trade Commission (ITC) will review a petition filed on finished and unfinished carbon and alloy forged steel fittings to determine if these goods have been sold into the commerce of the United States at less than fair market value and/or received subsidies from the foreign governments for the manufacturing, in the case of fittings from India.
This investigation will cover tariff numbers 7307.92.3010, 7307.92.3030, 7307.92.9000, 7307.93.3010, 7307.93.3040, 7307.93.6000, 7307.93.9010, 7307.93.9040, 7307.93.9060, 7307.99.1000, 7307.99.3000, 7307.99.5045, and 7307.99.5060.
The petition filed alleges that the India origin goods have a margin of 114.47 percent and the Korea origin goods carry a margin of 45 to 198.67 percent. The DOC and ITC will now determine whether an investigation should be launched.
