OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES 

TRADE REPRESENTATIVE 

[Docket No. USTR–2010–0015] 

Notice and Modification of Action: 

Canada—Compliance with Softwood 

Lumber Agreement 

AGENCY: Office of the United States 

Trade Representative. 

ACTION: Notice and modification of 

action. 

SUMMARY: Under the 2006 Softwood 

Lumber Agreement (SLA), Canada 

agreed to impose export measures on 

Canadian exports of softwood lumber 

products to the United States. At the 

request of the United States, an arbitral 

tribunal established under the SLA 

determined in March 2008 that Canada 

had breached certain SLA obligations. 

In February 2009, the tribunal issued a 

remedy award instructing Canada to 

collect an additional 10 percent ad 

valorem export charge on softwood 

lumber shipments from Ontario, 

Quebec, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan, 

until an entire amount of CDN $68 

million has been collected. Canada did 

not begin collecting the additional 

export charge. In April 2009, the United 

States Trade Representative (‘‘Trade 

Representative’’) initiated an 

investigation under Section 302 of the 

Trade Act of 1974, as amended (‘‘Trade 

Act’’). In that investigation, the Trade 

Representative determined that 

Canada’s failure to implement the 

tribunal’s remedy award had the effect 

of denying U.S. rights under the SLA; 

and, pursuant to Section 301 of the 

Trade Act, the Trade Representative 

imposed 10 percent ad valorem duties 

on imports of softwood lumber products 

subject to the SLA from the provinces of 

Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, and 

Saskatchewan (the April 2009 action). 

Under the April 2009 action, the duties 

are to remain in place until such time 

as the United States collects $54.8 

million, the U.S. dollar equivalent of 

CDN $68 million at the time. The 

Government of Canada, however, has 

now adopted its own measures to 

address Canada’s breach of the SLA. In 

particular, Canada will begin collection 

of an additional 10 percent charge on 

exports of softwood lumber products 

from the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, 

Manitoba, and Saskatchewan, which 

will be effective with respect to 

softwood lumber products with a 

shipment date of September 1, 2010 or 

later. Per an understanding between the 

Governments of the United States and 

Canada, Canada will collect the 

additional 10 percent charge on exports 

until the total of the amounts collected 

under the U.S. import duty and the 

Canadian charge on exports is equal to 

CDN $68 million. The Trade 

Representative has determined that 

Canada’s measures satisfactorily grant 

the rights of the United States under the 

SLA. Accordingly, the Trade 

Representative has modified the April 

2009 action by removing the 10 percent 

ad valorem duties on imports of 

softwood lumber products subject to the 

SLA from the provinces of Ontario, 

Quebec, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan, 

effective with respect to imports with a 

shipment date of September 1, 2010 or 

later. 

DATES: The modification of the April 

2009 action is effective with respect to 

imports of softwood lumber products 

subject to the SLA from the provinces of 

Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, and 

Saskatchewan with a shipment date of 

September 1, 2010 or later.

Melle, Deputy Assistant USTR for the 

Americas, (202) 395–3412, or Suzanne 

Garner, Assistant General Counsel, (202)

enforcement of U.S. rights under the 

SLA; Heather Sykes, Chief, Trade Policy

B. Canada’s Measures Addressing the 

Breach of the SLA 

Canada has adopted measures to 

comply with the February 2009 remedy 

award by imposing a 10 percent export 

charge on exports of softwood lumber 

products subject to the SLA from the 

provinces of Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, 

and Saskatchewan. Canada enacted the 

necessary legislation, in the form of an 

amendment to the Softwood Lumber 

Products Export Charge Act, 2006, with 

parliamentary approval and royal assent 

on July 12, 2010. On August 4, 2010, 

Canada issued an Order in Council 

setting September 1, 2010 as the date to 

begin imposing the 10% charge on 

shipments of softwood lumber products 

from the provinces of Ontario, Quebec, 

Manitoba, and Saskatchewan. 

Per an understanding between the 

Governments of the United States and 

Canada, Canada will collect the 

additional 10 percent charge on exports 

until the total of the amounts collected 

under the U.S. import duty and the 

Canadian charge on exports is equal to 

CDN $68 million. The understanding 

also provides for the United States and 

Canada to exchange information on the 

ongoing amounts collected under the 

U.S. import duty and the Canadian 

charge on exports.
