Regarding the Final Determination for anti-dumping investigation for Non-Oriented Electrical Steel in the United States
November 7,2014
Eiji Hayashida
Chairman
The Japan Iron and Steel Federation
On November 6, the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) determined as a result of an anti-dumping investigation that the domestic steel industry in the United States has been materially injured by imports of Non-Oriented Electrical Steel from Japan.
During the anti-dumping investigation by ITC, the Japanese steel industry stated that exports of Non-Oriented Electrical Steel from Japan have caused no injury to the domestic industry in the United States.
We believe that it is unjust and extremely regrettable that ITC has rejected our statements, concluded that the domestic industry in the United States has been injured by imports of Non-Oriented Electrical Steel from Japan, and decided to enact the anti-dumping measures.
The Japanese steel industry will carefully study this decision and, after holding discussions with Japanese government, determine a proper course of action.
