Commerce also preliminarily found that five other companies selected for review had no suspended entries of subject merchandise during the review period, so it is rescinding the review for them. The companies are: 1) Ancofer Stahlhandel GmbH.; 2) Eastman Chemical Technology BV; 3) NLMK Dansteel A.S.; 4) NV Hengelhoef Concrete Joints; and 5) Steelforce Europe NV. The AD cash deposit rate for these companies will not change as a result of this review. Any subject merchandise entered under their AD case numbers would be liquidated at the 5.4% all-others rate.
Commerce has already ordered liquidation as entered, at the cash deposit rate in effect at the time of entry, for entries during the period of review from all exporters not under review, in a message to CBP (ADCVDWeb Message # 4222429).
(The period of review is 05/01/23 - 04/30/24. See the notice for additional information, including the scope of the order, potential cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc.)
