The International Trade Administration is initiating an antidumping duty changed circumstances review of diamond sawblades and parts thereof from China (A-570-900) to determine whether Husqvarna (Hebei) Co. is the successor-in-interest to Hebei Husqvarna Jikai Diamond Tools Co. for purposes of determining AD duty liability. Husqvarna Jikai's current AD cash deposit rate is 48.5 percent, which was assigned in the original investigation. No subsequent administrative reviews have been completed pending resolution of fraud allegations.

The International Trade Administration issued the final results of its antidumping administrative review of light-walled rectangular pipe and tube from Mexico (A-201-836), finding zero AD rates for Maquilacero S.A. de C.V. and Regiomontana de Perfiles y Tubos S.A. de C.V. The ITA made no changes from the preliminary results. The ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate all entries of subject merchandise from either Maquilacero or Regiomontana during the period of review without regard to AD duties, and will not require an AD cash deposit on such merchandise until further notice. The new rates are effective Jan. 8, and will be implemented by CBP soon.

The ITA found preliminary AD rates for xanthan gum from Austria and China of 17.18 percent, and 21.69 to 154.07 percent, respectively. The official notice of the ITA's preliminary determinations, which will trigger the implementation of the AD cash deposit requirements for subject merchandise, will be published in the Federal Register soon.
