Abstract: the Steel Import Monitoring and Analysis (SIMA) System is vital to facilitate the real-time monitoring of steel imports in a volatile market. This is a continuation of the licensing and monitoring system which began as part of the 201 steel safeguards. Extension of the SIMA system has been expanded to over all steel mill products. SIMA is operating under authority as part of the Census Act (13 U.S.C. 301(a) and 302).
