We were saddened to hear that DHA member Rockshield had an extensive fire at their plant in Cochrane, Ontario. We were relieved by reports that there were no injuries and pleased that there is a good chance the plant will recover.

Imports of hardwood plywood are up by 32% so far this year. Imports from Vietnam and Malaysia are more than double last year. In this atmosphere, continuing vigilance by the Department of Commerce is essential. Commerce's recent preliminary determination in its administrative reviews of the 2022 antidumping and countervailing duties is a good step.

If you have questions or comments, contact me. I look forward to hearing from you.
