Commerce will also impose antidumping duties of 72.85% – 129.63% and 186.84%, respectively, on imports from Thailand and Vietnam (Mexico CVD duties fully offset Mexico AD rates).","length":603,"tagName":"p"},{"type":"text","content":""Today's vote is recognition of the harm unfairly traded imports have caused in the U.S. chassis industry," said Robert E.
