05/10/2013 - The United States International Trade Commission (USITC) determined that there is a reasonable indication that a U.S. industry is materially injured by reason of imports of diffusion-annealed, nickel-plated flat-rolled steel products from Japan that are allegedly sold in the U.S. at less than fair value.

Chairman Irving A. Williamson and Commissioners Shara L. Aranoff, Dean A. Pinkert, David S. Johanson, and Meredith M. Broadbent voted in the affirmative. Commissioner Daniel R. Pearson voted in the negative.
