The US International Trade Commission (ITC) has decided that lifting the current anti-dumping duty order on clad steel plate imports from Japan would probably cause ongoing or renewed harm within a foreseeable period. Consequently, the existing import order from Japan will stay in effect following the ITC's positive ruling. Chairman David S. Johanson and Commissioners Rhonda K. Schmidtlein, Jason E. Kearns, and Amy A. Karpel all voted in favor of this decision.
