China Aluminum Extrusions: Corrections to Rates, Cos
The International Trade Administration is correcting its final affirmative antidumping duty determination on aluminum extrusions from China (A-570-967) to correct the AD cash deposit/bond rates for the mandatory and 29 separate rate respondents to their original unadjusted rates of 33.28% and 32.79%, respectively. The original AD final determination had mistakenly lowered one rate and set others at zero.

AD Rates Should Not be Adjusted for Export Subsidies as No CV Duties Now
In the final AD determination, the ITA adjusted the AD duty rate for Guang Ya Group/New Zhongya/Xinya for the export subsidy portion of the rate determined in the final CV duty determination, which was reduced to 33.02% (33.28% minus the export subsidy rate of 0.26%).,
The ITA also adjusted the AD duty rate for the separate rate respondents by the amount of export subsidies included in the all others rate from the final CV duty determination, which was reduced to zero (32.79% minus the export subsidy rate of 42.16%)).
However, the provisional measures in the concurrent CV duty investigation expired on January 6, 2011, and CV rates will only start again if the International Trade Commission makes a final affirmative injury determination and a CV duty order is issued. If and when CV duties are collected again, the AD duty rates will be adjusted for the export subsidy portion of the CV duty rates1.
Full AD Cash Deposits/Bonds to be Collected as of April 4
Because no export subsidy-related duties will be collected during this period, the ITA has determined to collect the full AD cash deposit or bond amounts beginning April 4, 2011, without adjusting for the amount of the export subsidies found in the concurrent CV duty determination.
Therefore, the ITA will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection to collect the full AD cash deposit or bond amounts below for the following exporter/producer combinations, for goods with a time of entry on or after April 4, 2011:

1In addition, if the ITC does make a final affirmative injury determination before May 11, 2011, the provisional measures in the AD investigation will expire, and AD suspension of liquidation will be terminated and no cash deposits for estimated AD duties will be collected until and unless ITC publishes an affirmative final injury determination.
