SPECIAL IMPORT MEASURES ACT
Certain steel plate — Decision
On April 17, 2014, the President of the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) made a final determination of dumping pursuant to paragraph 41(1)(a) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), in respect of certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate and high-strength low-alloy steel plate not further manufactured than hot-rolled, heat-treated or not, in cut lengths, in widths from 24 inches (+/− 610 mm) to 152 inches (+/− 3 860 mm) inclusive, and thicknesses from 0.187 inches (+/− 4.75 mm) up to and including 3.0 inches (76.2 mm) [with all dimensions being plus or minus allowable tolerances contained in the applicable standards], but excluding plate for use in the manufacture of pipe and tube (also known as skelp); plate in coil form, plate having a rolled, raised figure at regular intervals on the surface (also known as floor plate), originating in or exported from the Federative Republic of Brazil, the Kingdom of Denmark, the Republic of Indonesia, the Italian Republic, Japan, and the Republic of Korea.
On the same date, pursuant to paragraph 41(1)(b) of the SIMA, the President of the CBSA terminated the dumping investigation in respect of the above mentioned goods originating in or exported from Chinese Taipei.
The subject goods are usually classified under the following Harmonized System classification numbers:
- 7208.51.00.10
- 7208.51.00.91
- 7208.51.00.92
- 7208.51.00.93

- 7208.52.00.91
- 7208.52.00.92
- 7208.52.00.93
- 7208.52.00.94
- 7208.52.00.95
The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (Tribunal) is continuing its inquiry into the question of injury to the domestic industry and will make a finding by May 20, 2014. Provisional duties will continue to apply until this date on imports of subject goods from these six countries.
If the Tribunal finds that the dumping has caused injury or is threatening to cause injury, future imports of subject goods will be subject to anti-dumping duty equal to the margin of dumping on the goods. In that event, the importer in Canada shall pay all such duties.
The Customs Act applies, with any modifications that the circumstances require, with respect to the accounting and payment of anti-dumping duty.
Information
The Statement of Reasons regarding this decision will be issued within 15 days following the decision and will be available on the CBSA Web site at www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/sima-lmsi or by contacting Barbara Chouinard at 613-954-7399 or Jason Huang at 613-954-7388, or by fax at 613-948-4844.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) hereby gives notice that it will, pursuant to subsection 76.03(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), initiate an expiry review (Expiry Review No. RR-2014-001) of its order made on January 6, 2010, in Expiry Review No. RR-2009-001, continuing, with amendment, its findings made on January 7, 2005, in Inquiry No. NQ-2004-005, concerning the dumping of certain carbon steel fasteners originating in or exported from the People's Republic of China and Chinese Taipei and the subsidizing of such products originating in or exported from the People's Republic of China, excluding the products described in Appendix 1 (the subject goods).

The CBSA must provide notice of its determinations within 120 days after receiving notice of the Tribunal's decision to initiate an expiry review, that is, no later than August 21, 2014. The Tribunal will issue its order no later than January 5, 2015, and its statement of reasons no later than January 20, 2015.
Each person or government wishing to participate in this expiry review must file a notice of participation with the Secretary on or before September 3, 2014.
