"We commend Customs and Border Protection for initiating this important investigation," said Tim Brightbill, partner at Wiley Rein LLP and trade counsel for the Coalition for Fair Trade in Hardwood Plywood. "With 200 percent duties on hardwood plywood imports from China, evasion and circumvention of these duties has been rampant. We welcome this strong enforcement step and hope this is the first of several such actions that CBP takes publicly to address this cheating and duty evasion."
