Dear U.S. Grains Council Members,

The U.S. Grains Council is pleased that China’s Ministry of Commerce announced the anti-dumping investigation against U.S. DDGS exports to China has been terminated. In the announcement, the Ministry of Commerce stated that the applicants in the case withdrew their petition on May 10, 2012, which resulted in the Ministry terminating the investigation in accordance with China’s anti-dumping regulations. No anti-dumping tariffs will be imposed. 

The Council is appreciative of the thoughtful and constructive way in which the various agencies in China involved with this process have collaborated to resolve this issue. The Council also commends the broad coalition of U.S. stakeholders that supported the Council’s legal efforts in this matter. The Council also extends its thanks to the numerous industry leaders and other stakeholders in China who are leading the growth and modernization of China’s livestock industry and who recognize the value of U.S. DDGS in that effort.

The anti-dumping petition was initially filed Dec. 28, 2010. The U.S. Grains Council immediately reached out to U.S. stakeholders to organize a response. The Council subsequently participated in evidentiary hearings in Beijing and has cooperated fully with the ongoing Chinese disposition of this case. The Council is gratified by the result and looks forward to continuing the mutually beneficial trade relationship between the two countries.

好消息：

美国谷物协会高兴地获悉中国商务部于2012年6月22日宣布终止对美国玉米酒精糟（DDGS）的反倾销调查。商务部在其公告中声明本案申请人于2012年5月10日提出撤销该调查申请，所以商务部根据中国的反倾销条列，终止该调查。并不加征反倾销关税。

协会感谢中国的各相关机构在该调查中所采取的关切和建设性的办法，并使其得到圆满解决。协会称赞协会董事会联合美国利益相关者们支持协会在该调查中所做的努力。协会还感谢中国众多行业的领导和其他利益相关者们，是他们在领导并使中国畜牧业现代化，并认识到美国DDGS 的价值。

该反倾销调查于2010年12月28日开始的。美国谷物协会立即联系到美国的利益相关者们并组织回应。协会随后参加了在北京举行的听证会，并和中国的相关机构合作。协会对该结果很高兴，并期待着中美两国互惠的贸易关系继续发展。
