UNITED STATES – ANTI-DUMPING AND COUNTERVAILING MEASURES
ON LARGE RESIDENTIAL WASHERS FROM KOREA
STATUS REPORT REGARDING IMPLEMENTATION OF THE
DSB RECOMMENDATIONS AND RULINGS
BY THE UNITED STATES
Addendum
The following communication, dated 9 July 2018, from the delegation of the United States to the
Chairperson of the Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated pursuant to Article 21.6 of the DSU.

The United States submits this report in accordance with Article 21.6 of the Understanding o n
Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes ("DSU").

On 26 September 2016, the Dispute Settlement Body ( "DSB") adopted its recommendations in
United States – Anti-Dumping and Countervailing Measures on Large Residential Washers from
Korea (WT/DS464). At the following DSB meeting, on 26 October 201 6, the United States
informed the DSB of its intention to implement the recommendations of the DSB in connection
with this matter. Korea requested that the reasonable period of time for the United States to
implement the recommendations of the DSB be determined through arbitration pursuant to
Article 21.3(c) of the DSU. The Arbitrator determined the reasonable period of time to be
15 months, expiring on 26 December 2017.

On 15 December 2017, the United States Trade Representative requested that the US Department
of Commerce ( "Commerce") initiate a proceeding under section 129 of the Uruguay Round
Agreements Act to address the DSB 's recommendations relating to Commerce 's countervailing
duty investi gation of washers from Korea. On 18 December 2017, Commerce initiated a
section 129 proceeding. Following initiation, Commerce issued initial and supplemental
questionnaires seeking additional information. On 4 April 2018, Commerce issued a preliminary
determination. Following issuance of the preliminary determination, Commerce provided interested
parties with the opportunity to submit comments on the issues and analysis in the preliminary
determination and rebut tal comments. Commerce reviewed those comments and rebuttal
comments and took them into account for purposes of preparing the final determination. On
4 June 2018, Commerce issued a final determination, in which Commerce revised certain aspects
of its origi nal determination. Specifically, Commerce revised the analysis underlying the CVD
determination, as it pertains to certain tax credit programs, in accordance with findings adopted by
the DSB.

The United States continues to consult with interested parties on options to address the
recommendations of the DSB relating to anti-dumping measures challenged in this dispute.
