"However, we are extremely disappointed that this ruling fails to address the core issue: that American makers of innovative outdoor apparel have no domestic commercial sources to rely upon, yet continue to be included in quota systems that unfairly exposed businesses to potential embargoes," said Frank Hugelmeyer, president of Outdoor Industry Association.

OIA and SIA will continue to work with the administration and Congress to address the remaining problems with the exemption.

Apparel companies impacted by the quotas on Chinese goods are strongly urged to review their own supply requirements and to move quickly to obtain the necessary quota to cover their 2006 imports.

SIA is the national non profit trade association founded in 1954 whereby competing on-snow product suppliers work together for the development of on snow sports and the snow sports industry.

OIA programs include representation in government/legislative affairs, market research, educational events, member cost saving benefits and outreach initiatives to grow participation in outdoor activities and promote healthier lifestyles. It is the exclusive endorser of the Outdoor Retailer tradeshow.
