The United States Department of Commerce and the International Trade Commission have decided to continue imposing antidumping duties on non-malleable cast iron pipe fittings from China. This decision comes after a review that determined ending these duties could lead to dumping and harm the U.S. industry. The order was originally implemented to prevent unfair pricing that would damage domestic production. As a result, U.S. Customs will continue collecting duties on these imports to maintain fair market conditions.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. is keeping a rule that makes China pay extra money on certain pipe parts because, without this rule, China might sell them too cheaply, hurting American businesses.
