China CTL Steel Plate: Final Results of AD Admin Review
The Commerce Department issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on cut-to-length carbon steel plate from China (A-570-849) (here). Commerce found Hunan Valin Xiangtan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. did not demonstrate independence from state control, assigning the company the China-wide AD duty rate of 128.59%. Commerce will assess AD duties at this rate on subject merchandise from Huvan Valin entered between Nov. 1, 2014, and Oct. 31, 2015. A 128.59% AD duty cash deposit rate for Hunan Valin takes effect Dec. 19.

Commerce also found Wuyang Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. did not have any shipments to the U.S. during the period of review, so the company's AD duty rate is unchanged. Any entries under its case number will be assessed AD duties at the 128.59% China-wide rate.
Additionally, for any other exporters of subject merchandise that were not under review (i.e., all exporters of subject merchandise except Hunan Valin and Wuyang), cash deposit rates will also remain at the level set in the most recent review of each respective company. For companies that have never been assigned a cash deposit rate by Commerce, the China-wide rate applies.
(The review period is 11/01/14 -- 10/31/15. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
