USITC institutes five-year reviews of polyethylene retail carrier bags from six countries

The USITC instituted five-year reviews on September 1, 2026, to determine whether revocation of the countervailing duty order on polyethylene retail carrier bags from Vietnam and the antidumping duty orders on polyethylene retail carrier bags from China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. Interested parties must respond to the notice by October 1, 2026, to be assured of consideration, and comments on the adequacy of responses may be filed by November 16, 2026.
