The U.S. Department of Commerce and the International Trade Commission have decided to continue the antidumping duty order on persulfates imported from China. The decision is based on findings that removing the order could lead to the continuation of unfair pricing and harm to U.S. industries. This means that customs will keep collecting duties on imports of persulfates at current rates, which is intended to maintain fair market conditions. The continuation comes as part of a regular review process that occurs every five years.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. has decided to keep a special rule that charges extra money on a particular chemical coming from China to stop it from being sold for really cheap, which can hurt local businesses. This means U.S. companies that make similar stuff can still compete fairly.
