Polyethylene Terephthalate Resin – Notice of Final Decisions
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) trminated the subsidy investigation in respect of certain polyethylene terephthalate resin (PET resin) exported to Canada from the Sultanate of Oman (Oman) by OCTAL SAOC FZC (Octal), and exported to Canada from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan (Pakistan) by Novatex Limited (Novatex) and originating in or exported from Pakistan by all other exporters, as the amounts of subsidy were insignificant.
On the same day, the CBSA, pursuant to paragraph 41(1)(b) of SIMA, made a final determination of dumping in respect of certain PET resin originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China (China), the Republic of India (India), Oman and Pakistan, and a final determination of subsidizing in respect of certain PET resin originating in or exported from China and India.
As all exporters of goods originating in or exported from Oman and Pakistan have an insignificant amount of subsidy, the termination of the subsidy investigation in respect of subject goods from these exporters will effectively end the CBSA’s subsidy proceedings in respect of goods from Oman and Pakistan.
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT) is continuing its inquiry into the question of injury to the domestic industry and will make an order or finding by March 16, 2018.
Provisional duties will continue to be applied on imports of dumped and subsidized subject goods originating or exported from China, India, Oman and Pakistan until the CITT concludes its inquiry and issues its finding. However, provisional countervailing duties on goods exported from Oman by Octal, and exported from Pakistan by Novatex and originating in or exported from Pakistan by all other exporters, will cease, and all provisional countervailing duties paid or security posted on these goods, will be returned.
Steel Piling Pipe – Expiry Review Determination
The Canada Border Services Agency determined that the expiry of the finding made by the Canadian International Trade Tribunal;
is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of certain steel piling pipe originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China; and
is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of subsidizing of certain steel piling pipe originating in or exported from the People’s Republic of China.
Copper Pipe Fittings – Preliminary Determinations
Concerning the preliminary determinations with respect to the dumping and subsidizing of Certain Copper Pipe Fittings originating in or exported from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) made preliminary determinations on January 25, 2018 respecting the dumping and subsidizing of certain copper pipe fittings originating in or exported from the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.
Certain Gypsum Board, Notice of Re-investigation
The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has initiated a re-investigation to update the normal values and export prices respecting certain gypsum board originating in or exported from the United States of America, imported into Canada for use or consumption in the provinces of British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba, as well as the Yukon and Northwest Territories (Western Canada), in accordance with the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA).
The re-investigation is part of the ongoing enforcement of the injury finding issued on January 4, 2017 by the CITT.  It is anticipated that this re-investigation will be concluded by June 29, 2018.
Where an exporter of subject goods does not provide sufficient information to determine specific normal values or does not permit verification of information submitted, anti dumping duties will be assessed at the rate of 324.1% of the export price of the subject goods imported into Western Canada, in accordance with a ministerial specification pursuant to section 29 of SIMA.
Exporters that are not the manufacturer of the subject goods (e.g. trading companies, vendors, etc.) will receive normal values only to the extent that their suppliers/manufacturers provide sufficient information to permit the determination of normal values and export prices.
Please note that, for the current re-investigation, the CBSA is contacting all known and potential exporters. However, any importers or exporters who have not received a letter from the CBSA with the accompanying RFIs, and who wish to provide a response to the RFI are advised to contact one of the officers identified below. Similarly, it is suggested that importers contact their exporter(s) to determine if the exporter(s) has received the exporter RFI and whether they intend to cooperate with the CBSA in this re-investigation.
The closing of the record for parties will be at noon on June 1, 2018. Case arguments and reply submissions from parties shall be filed by noon, on June 11, 2018 and June 18, 2018, respectively.
