ITC issues affirmative preliminary injury determination in truck trailer duty investigation

The US International Trade Commission has determined there is a reasonable indication a US industry is materially injured by imports of van-type trailers and subassemblies from Canada, China and Mexico that are alleged to be sold at less than their value and alleged to be subsidized.

The commission filed its determinations Feb. 11. The decision allows the antidumping and countervailing duty investigation to proceed into the final phase.
