The Commerce Department looks set to recognize a Canadian company's name change for the purposes of countervailing duties on softwood lumber products from Canada (C-122-858). The agency preliminarily found that TRAPA Forest Products Ltd. is the successor-in-interest to Trans-Pacific Trading Ltd. in the preliminary results of a changed circumstances review published Jan. 31. The agency preliminarily found that Trans-Pacific changed its name to TRAPA but otherwise continues to operate as the same business entity as before. If Commerce confirms its findings in the final results, TRAPA will inherit the CVD rate assigned to Trans-Pacific Trading, which was 6.74% (the review average rate) in the final results of a CVD administrative review for Jan. 1, 2021, and Dec. 31, 2021, published in August 2024 (see 2408160017). Commerce has recognized the name change and allowed TRAPA to inherit Trans-Pacific's rate for the purposes of the antidumping duties on subject merchandise (see 2409200061).

The Commerce Department said it's rescinding the administrative review of the antidumping duty order on oil country tubular goods from China (A-570-943) for the period of review May 1, 2023, through April 30, 2024, because there were no reviewable, suspended entries of subject merchandise during the review period for the two companies for which the review had been requested. Copley International Group Co. Limited and Lixin Energy Group (HK) Co., Ltd. had requested the administrative review cover Petroleum Equipment (Thailand) Co., Ltd., and Thai Oil Pipe Co., Ltd. As a result, no cash deposit rates will change, and the current cash deposit requirements will remain in effect until further notice. Commerce will instruct CBP to assess AD on all appropriate entries, at rates equal to the cash deposit of estimated AD required at the time of entry, or withdrawal from warehouse, for consumption, it said.
