The International Trade Administration published notices in the Feb. 19 Federal Register on the following AD/CV proceedings (any notices that announce changes to AD/CV duty rates, scope, affected firms, or effective dates will be detailed in another ITT article):
The International Trade Administration issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review of purified carboxymethylcellulose from Finland (A-405-803) for one company, CP Kelco. The new rate is effective Feb. 20, and will be implemented by CBP soon.
The International Trade Administration issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review of diamond sawblades and parts thereof from Korea (A-580-855). The final results had been long-delayed; after the December 2011 preliminary results, the ITA began investigating fraud allegations related to false country of origin markings against two Korean companies. The investigations also affected the timetable for the administrative review of diamond sawblades from China. In the end, the ITA found the data submitted by the two companies reliable.
Antidumping and countervailing duty orders on corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products from Germany and Korea will end after the International Trade Commission voted that no injury to domestic industry would result from revocation. The vote was unanimous. As a result of the sunset review determination, the International Trade Administration will revoke the AD duty orders on corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products from Germany (A-428-815) and Korea (A-580-816), and the countervailing duty order on corrosion-resistant carbon steel flat products from Korea (C-580-818). The revocations will take effect on the date five years after the last continuation of the AD/CV duty orders, Feb. 14, 2012.

The International Trade Administration issued the final results of the 2009-10 antidumping duty administrative review of diamond sawblades and parts thereof from China (A-570-900), finding AD rates of de minimis to 9.55 percent and rescinding the review for one company.1 The final results come over a year after the ITA's Dec. 6, 2011, preliminary results because the ITA was investigating fraud allegations that could have resulted in unreliable data for Chinese companies. A court challenge was even filed, and subsequently dismissed, seeking to make the ITA issue the final results (see ITT's Online Archives 12121003 for summary). In the end, the ITA found that the data in question was untainted by the fraud, and reliable. The new rates are effective Feb. 15, and will be implemented by CBP soon.
The International Trade Administration issued an antidumping duty order on utility scale wind towers from Vietnam (A-570-981). The ITA revised its calculations of AD rates, causing them to increase slightly. Because the International Trade Commission did not find that injury to U.S. industry would have occurred if not for suspension of liquidation after the preliminary determination, the ITA will not assess AD duties on subject merchandise entered between the Aug. 2 preliminary determination and the Feb. 13 ITC injury determination, and will refund cash deposits collected during that period.
