US mills target coated imports in another circumvention inquiry

The US Commerce Department has launched another duty circumvention inquiry targeting coated steel imports at the request of two domestic mills, according to a Federal Register filing.

Nucor and Steel Dynamics Inc. (SDI) requested the investigation, alleging that CORE from Thailand made using Korean components is circumventing US anti-dumping and countervailing duties (AD/CVDs) on CORE from Korea.
