imposing a provisional anti-dumping duty on imports of certain organic coated steel products originating in the People's Republic of China

imposing a countervailing duty on imports of certain organic coated steel products originating in the People's Republic of China

Two exporting producers returned the sampling forms but none of them produced organic coated steel products as defined in the Notice of Initiation.

Accordingly, the financing of the organic coated steel industry should be considered a subsidy.

The GOC did not provide any evidence that the situation as established in the Coated Fine Paper and Organic Coated Steel investigations has changed.

During the IP, OCS was manufactured by 22 producers in the Union.

Indeed, the production of the OCS is capital intensive and the industry has relatively high fixed costs.

The total exports of OCS by the Union industry to third countries according to Eurostat decreased by 10 % over the period considered.

The Union industry as a whole is composed of 22 known producers representing all of the Union OCS production according to Eurofer.

It has also been alleged that imposition of measures on Chinese imports would create a shortage of OCS on the EU market.
