The Commerce Department announced the opportunity to request administrative reviews by Sept. 30 for producers and exporters subject to 40 antidumping duty orders, 12 countervailing duty orders and one suspension agreement with September anniversary dates.

The Commerce Department is giving advance notice that in automatic five-year sunset reviews scheduled to begin in October it will consider revoking the antidumping duty orders on strontium chromate from Austria (A-433-813) and France (A-427-830). These orders will be revoked, or investigation terminated, unless Commerce finds that revocation would lead to dumping and the International Trade Commission finds that revocation would result in injury to U.S. industry, Commerce said.

The Commerce Department and the International Trade Commission began five-year sunset reviews of the antidumping and countervailing duty orders on circular welded carbon quality steel line pipe from China (A-570-935/C-570-936) and refillable stainless steel kegs from China (A-570-093/C-570-094); as well as the antidumping duty orders on welded large diameter line pipe from Japan (A-588-857); diffusion-annealed, nickel-plated flat-rolled steel products from Japan (A-588-869); uncovered innerspring units from China (A-570-928), South Africa (A-791-821) and Vietnam (A-552-803); and refillable stainless-steel kegs from Mexico (A-201-849), Commerce said in a notice released Aug. 30.

The International Trade Commission is beginning a Section 337 investigation on allegations that imports of semiconductor devices from Innoscience are infringing on patents held by Infineon Technologies, the ITC said in a notice released Aug. 29. Infineon's complaint, filed in July (see 2408010017), said Innoscience is incorporating Infineon’s patented gallium nitride (GaN) technology into its power transistors and circuit products, including GaN-on-Si semiconductor devices, GaN Field Effect Transistors (FETs) and GaN high electron mobility transistors, as well as downstream chips that incorporate the transistors and circuits. The ITC will consider whether to issue a limited exclusion order and cease and desist order banning import and sale of infringing products from Innoscience.

The Commerce Department issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review on carbon and alloy steel cut-to-length plate from France (A-427-828). Commerce set an AD rate of zero percent for Dillinger France S.A., unchanged from the preliminary results. As a result, importers of subject merchandise from Dillinger France entered May 1, 2022, through April 30, 2023, won't be assessed AD, and future entries from Dillinger France wouldn't be subject to AD cash deposits until further notice. The new zero AD rate for Dillinger France takes effect Aug. 28.
