Source: Compiled from data submitted in response to Commission questionnaires.
Of the 45 responding purchasers, four reported that U.S. producers had reduced prices 
in order to compete with lower‐priced imports from China (table V‐20; 22 reported that they 
did not know). The reported estimated price reduction ranged from 10 to 30 percent. In 
describing the price reductions, purchasers indicated that U.S. producers increased discounts 
and offered special pricing for commercial projects.
