U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC)

The U.S. International Trade Commission is a federal agency which is independent, nonpartisan and quasi-judicial. The ITC (also commonlty referred to as the USITC) provides trade analysis to the President and Congress. The Commission serves as a forum to adjudicate intellectual property and trade disputes. The USITC investigates and makes determinations in cases involving imports which injure U.S. industry, including antidumping and countervailing duty cases, or violate U.S. intellectual property rights, such as in Section 337 cases. It also maintains the U.S. Harmonized Tariff Schedule. The USITC is headed by six Commissioners who are appointed by Congress.

Fluid End Block Exporter Trying to Add End Use Requirement to Orders, US Says
May 22, 2025 by Kathryn Nucci|Litigation

Fluid end block exporter BGH Edelstahl Siegen attempted to "inject" an end-use requirement into antidumping and countervailing duty orders on forged steel fluid end blocks, the U.S. said in a motion for judgment at the Court of International Trade. BGH Edelstahl argues that its forged steel blocks are not “fluid end blocks" because they aren't specifically meant for use in hydraulic pumps, it said (see 2503190024) (BGH Edelstahl Siegen GmbH v. United States, CIT # 24-00176).
