Constraints and changes, as the sources state them
- “In April, the U.S. International Trade Commission determined that a United States industry was materially injured by imports of ferrosilicon (subheadings 7202. and 7202. of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States) from Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia and issued countervailing and antidumping duty orders on imports of ferrosilicon from those countries.” USGS ↗
- “This followed the U.S. Department of Commerce’s determination that ferrosilicon had been sold at less than fair value and was subsidized by the Governments of Brazil, Kazakhstan, and Malaysia.” USGS ↗
