Anonymous Producer Files an Antidumping Duty Petition
November 5, 2021 |AD/CVD

A coalition of superabsorbent polymer producers that includes one anonymous member on Nov. 2 filed at the Commerce Department a petition seeking imposition of antidumping duties on that product from South Korea. The coalition, dubbed the Ad Hoc Coalition of American SAP Producers, includes BASF, Evonik and another member redacted in the public version of the petition. The partially anonymous petition follows an entirely anonymous anti-circumvention inquiry request alleging that solar cell imports from Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam are circumventing AD duties on China (see 2109300075). The anonymous solar cell producers say they should be treated as anonymous due to the threat of Chinese retaliation.

Roster members may not be affiliated with any of the three USMCA governments, except for judges, who will be appointed to the roster “to the fullest extent practicable.”
