SPECIAL IMPORT MEASURES ACT

Polyiso insulation board — Decision

On April 6, 2010, 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 faced rigid cellular polyurethane-modified polyisocyanurate thermal insulation board (polyiso insulation board) originating in or exported from the United States of America.

The goods in question are usually classified under the following Harmonized System classification number: 3921.13.99.10.

The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (Tribunal) is continuing its inquiry into the question of injury to the domestic industry and will make an order or finding by May 6, 2010. Provisional duties will continue to apply until this date.

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’s Web site at www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/sima-lmsi or by contacting either Ron McTiernan at 613-954-7271 or Wayne Tian at 613-946-2574, or by fax at 613-948-4844.
