The International Trade Commission has initiated a Section 201 investigation to determine whether fresh, chilled, or frozen lamb meat is being imported in such increased quantities as to be a substantial cause or threat of serious injury to the U.S. industry producing like or directly competitive products.
Imports of lamb meat may enter under HTSUS subheadings 0204.10.00, 0204.21.00, 0204.22.20, 0204.22.40, 0204.23.20, 0204.23.40, 0204.30.00, 0204.41.00, 0204.42.20, 0204.42.40, 0204.43.20, and 0204.43.40.
Imports of live lambs and sheep and meat of mature sheep (mutton) are excluded from the scope of this investigation.
If the ITC’s determination is affirmative, potential remedies could include tariff increases, quotas, tariff-rate quotas, trade adjustment assistance, or any combination thereof.
