China Copper Pipe: Final Results of AD Admin Review
The Commerce Department issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on seamless refined copper pipe and tube from China (A-570-964) (here). Commerce determined both in the administrative review -- Hailiang and Golden Dragon -- did not undersell subject merchandise during the period of review, assigning each a zero percent AD duty rate. Subject merchandise from these four companies entered Nov. 1, 2014, through Oct. 31, 2015, will be liquidated without any assessment of AD duties, and future entries of subject merchandise from these seven companies will not be subject to AD duty cash deposit requirements until further notice. Changes to cash deposit rates from these final results take effect June 16.
