The dumping and subsidy claims will be evaluated by the U.S. Department of Commerce (DOC), which will determine if these practices occurred and will calculate the duties needed to offset these practices. The U.S. International Trade Commission will determine if U.S. producers were harmed by these practices (\u201cinjury\u201d in trade law terms).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the DOC finds in the affirmative on either dumping or subsidies allegations, and the ITC determines U.S. manufacturers were injured, duties will be imposed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A detailed description of the scope of the action prepared by the law firm White and Case can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitecase.com\/insight-alert\/information-regarding-antidumping-and-countervailing-duty-petitions-epoxy-resin-china\">here<\/a>.
