Today, the European Commission issued a “general disclosure document” setting forth its proposed ruling in the antidumping investigation involving U.S. ethanol exports to Europe. Growth Energy and The Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) commented:
“We continue to cooperate with the Commission’s investigation. We are troubled by news that the Commission is recommending a 9.6 percent antidumping duty to its Member States. We remain convinced that if all the facts are considered, the European Union will decide not to impose any antidumping duties on imports of ethanol produced in the United States.”
