Only the exporters for which an administrative review was requested are covered by these reviews. Cash deposit rates for all other exporters will not change. Commerce has ordered liquidation “as entered” for entries during the period of review from all exporters for which a review was not requested (ADCVDWeb Messages # 3138407, 3137416).
Commerce is also ending its antidumping and countervailing duty reviews of two companies that had requests for their review withdrawn. Commerce will also liquidate entries from the two companies -- BDP International and Sung Jin Steel Co., Ltd. -- as entered.
