The U.S. International Trade Commission Commission (USITC) today determined that revoking the existing antidumping and countervailing duty orders on standard steel welded wire mesh from Mexico would likely lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury within a reasonably foreseeable time.
As a result of the USITC’s affirmative determinations, the existing orders on imports of this product from Mexico will remain in place.
Chairman Brett W. Doyle and Commissioners Jason E. Kearns, Peter-Anthony Pappas, Bart Thanhauser, and David Foley Jr. voted in the affirmative. Commissioner Samuel T. Negatu did not participate in the vote.
Today’s action comes under the five-year (sunset) review process required by the Uruguay Round Agreements Act. See the attached page for background on these five-year (sunset) reviews.
The USITC’s public report, Standard Steel Welded Wire Mesh from Mexico (Inv. Nos. 701-TA-653 and 731-TA-1527 (Review), USITC Publication 5791, September 2026), will contain the views of the USITC and information developed during the reviews.
The report will be available on the USITC website by October 22, 2026.
