The Commerce Department is revoking antidumping and countervailing duties on high pressure steel cylinders from China (A-570-977/C-570-978), after no domestic producers sought to participate in five-year sunset reviews conducted by the agency, it said in a notice. Effective for entries on or after Dec. 5, 2022, Commerce will direct CBP to end suspension of liquidation and collection of AD/CVD cash deposits in connection with the now defunct AD/CVD orders, which had been in place since 2012. Entries before Dec. 5, 2022, will remain subject to suspension of liquidation and AD/CVD cash deposit requirements and assessments, Commerce said.

The International Trade Commission will review a final initial determination regarding imported video surveillance equipment (ITC Inv. No. 337-TA-1281), it said in a notice released Jan. 18. The decision follows Administrative Law Judge Bryan Moore's Oct. 24 final initial determination, which found respondent Verkada of San Mateo, California, had violated Section 337 by importing certain video security equipment and systems that infringed one of three patents named in the complaint that are held by Motorola and Avigilon. The ITC then asked for public interest statements (see 2210310032). Both complainants and Verkada submitted public interest statements but no submissions were received from outside parties.
The International Trade Commission issued another request for public interest statements regarding a possible general exclusion order banning all imports of knock-off footwear infringing on trademarks held by Crocs (ITC Inv. No. 337-TA-1270), according to a notice released Jan. 18. The request follows a Jan. 9 final determination by Administrative Law Judge Bryan Moore, which found no violation but recommended a general exclusion order should the commission disagree.

A major new feature is providing the ability to conduct searches of the centralized investigation database that generate in-depth results across multiple practice areas, the ITC said Jan. 12 in an announcement. IDS has the potential to provide "new perspectives and value-added insights for users," and will integrate with the ITC's existing Electronic Document Information System (EDIS) to share core investigation data.
