APP Expects Coated Paper Ruling to be Overturned

The Department of Commerce's final rulings on the AD and CVD cases are expected to be released in September. The last phase of the cases takes place in October or early November, when the U.S. International Trade Commission will determine if the U.S. paper industry has been harmed. Only an affirmative ruling at that time would lead to the imposition of an AD/CVD duty order on the coated paper in question from China and Indonesia.
