Certain Liquid Dielectric Transformers
Notice of Expiry Review Decision

Ottawa, December 22, 2017

On July 25, 2017, the Canadian International Trade Tribunal (CITT), pursuant to subsection 76.03(3) of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), initiated an expiry review of its order made on May 31, 2016, in Interim Review No. RD-2013-003, continuing, without amendment, its finding made on November 20, 2012, in Inquiry No. NQ-2012-001, concerning the dumping of liquid dielectric transformers having a top power handling capacity equal to or exceeding 60,000 kilovolt amperes (60 megavolt amperes), whether assembled or unassembled, complete or incomplete, originating in or exported from the Republic of Korea.

As a result of the CITT’s expiry review, on July 26, 2017, the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) initiated an expiry review investigation to determine whether the expiry of the order is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of the subject goods.

The investigation has now been completed and today the CBSA has determined, pursuant to paragraph 76.03(7)(a) of SIMA, that the expiry of the order concerning the dumping of certain liquid dielectric transformers originating in or exported from the Republic of Korea is likely to result in the continuation or resumption of dumping of the subject goods to Canada.

A Statement of Reasons that contains additional details concerning the determination made by the CBSA will be issued within 15 days. The Statement of Reasons will be posted on the CBSA’s website at: www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/sima-lmsi/er-rre/menu-eng.html.

The CITT will now conduct an inquiry to determine whether the expiry of its order is likely to result in injury to the Canadian industry and has announced that it will issue its decision no later than May 31, 2018.
