China Carbon Steel Plate: Final Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department issued the final results of its antidumping duty administrative review on cut-to-length carbon steel plate from China (A-570-849) (here). Commerce found the only exporter that cooperated with the review, Wuyang Iron & Steel Co, Ltd., had no shipments of subject merchandise to the U.S. during the period under review. As a result, Wuyang's cash deposit rate will not change.

Commerce also assigned five companies to the China-wide entity with a rate of 128.59%, as follows: Hebei Iron & Steel Co., Ltd.; Hunan Valin; Jiangyin Xingcheng Plastic Chemical Co., Ltd.; Jiangyin Xingcheng Special Steel Works Co., Ltd.; and Xiamen C&D Paper & Pulp Co., Ltd. Any changes to these companies' cash deposit rates from these final results take effect Dec. 7.

Commerce will set final assessment rates on importers of subject merchandise entered Nov. 1, 2013 through Oct. 31, 2014. For the five China-wide companies, Commerce will liquidate any entries of subject merchandise during that period at the China-wide rate. Any entries under Wuyang's case number during the period of review will also be liquidated at the China-wide rate.

(The review period is 11/01/13 -- 10/31/14. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 1508100035 for summary of the preliminary results of this administrative review.)
