It was reported that the US Department of Commerce (USDOC) received lots of suggestions from the domestic and foreign aluminum producers and users regarding how to improve the proposed aluminum import monitoring (AIM) system.

The US’ aluminum producers and extruders concerned mainly on the issue that whether this new system could avoid Chinese and Russian suppliers to evade the 10% tariff through Mexico, which was exempted from Trump’s steel and aluminum tariffs.

Besides, the Aluminum Association hoped the license list of aluminum imports could involve scrap and secondary aluminum under HTS heading of 7602, which were excluded from the 10% aluminum tariffs.
