Commerce Initiates Antidumping Duty Investigations on Imported Shrimp
Today the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC) announced the initiation of antidumping duty investigations on imports of certain frozen and canned warmwater shrimp from Brazil, Ecuador, India, the People's Republic of China, Thailand, and Vietnam.
The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) is scheduled to issue its preliminary injury determination on or before February 17, 2004. Should the ITC should find that there is a reasonable indication that the domestic industry is materially injured, or is threatened with material injury, as a result of imports of shrimp, the DOC investigations will proceed. Assuming that the preliminary determinations are not extended, the preliminary less than fair value determinations will be announced in June 2004.
