Notice and Modification of Action:
Canada—Compliance with Softwood
Lumber Agreement
Office of the United States
Trade Representative.
ACTION: Notice and modification of
action.
AGENCY:
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.
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.

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.
