    The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) determined that the US industry is being harmed by imports of prestressed concrete steel wire strand from several countries, which are being sold at less than fair value. These imports, from countries including Argentina, Colombia, and Turkey, are also subsidized by the Turkish government. The USITC's decision follows an investigation that began in April 2020 in response to a petition from US producers. The Commission held hearings and issued its final determinations in January 2021, confirming that these imports are negatively impacting the US market.
