    The Department of Commerce has determined that silicon metal imports from Bosnia and Iceland are being sold in the U.S. at unfairly low prices. They confirmed that critical circumstances exist for silicon metal from Iceland, meaning there may be immediate harm to U.S. industries. As a result, U.S. Customs will continue to hold off on processing these imports and require a deposit to cover potential anti-dumping duties. The International Trade Commission will soon decide if U.S. industries are being harmed, which might lead to the imposition of extra duties on these imports.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Commerce found that people from Bosnia and Iceland were selling a special kind of metal to the United States at very low prices, which could hurt making stuff here. So, they want to make sure these metals don't cause problems while they decide if any extra taxes need to be paid on them.
