The Bureau of Industry and Security is accepting input no later than June 3 on a new Section 232 investigation on commercial aircraft and jet engines and parts thereof. This investigation could result in the imposition of additional tariffs on imports of these products.
Interested parties are invited to submit written comments, data, analyses, or other information pertinent to these investigations. Among other things, BIS is interested in (1) current and projected demand for covered goods, (2) the extent to which domestic production can meet that demand, (3) the role of foreign supply chains, particularly major exporters, in meeting that demand, (4) the concentration of U.S. imports from a small number of suppliers and the associated risks, (5) the impact of foreign government subsidies and predatory trade practices on U.S. industry competitiveness, (6) the economic impact of artificially suppressed prices due to foreign unfair trade practices and state-sponsored overcapacity, (7) the potential for export restrictions by foreign nations, (8) the feasibility of increasing domestic capacity to reduce import reliance, and (9) the impact of current trade policies on domestic production and whether additional measures, including tariffs or quotas, are necessary to protect national security.
