AD Q&V Questionnaires due May 10

According to the Q&V questionnaire, the ITA is requesting information on the quantity and U.S. dollar sales value of all sales of steel wheels from China covered by the scope of the AD duty investigation to the U.S. during the period July 1 through December 31, 2010.

Q&V questionnaires are due by May 10, 2011.

AD Separate Rate Apps due 60 Days After FR Publication

The ITA also requires exporters and producers seeking separate rate status in the AD duty investigation to submit a separate rate application, which will be due 60 days from Federal Register publication date of the initiation notice.

(The ITA has previously stated that it requires that all non-market economy (NME) exporters/producers submit a response to both the Q&V questionnaire and the separate rate application in order to receive consideration for separate rate status.)
