No Domestic Parties Participated in Sunset Review
In May 2010, the ITA initiated a five-year sunset review of subject merchandise from China. Because the domestic interested parties did not file a notice of intent to participate in the sunset review, the ITA finds that no domestic interested party is participating in this sunset review.
(See ITT’s Online Archives or 05/04/10 news, 10050438, for BP summary of the initiation of the sunset review.)
Liquidation Resumes, No AD Cash Deposits Required Effective June 27

Subject merchandisewith a time of entry prior to June 27 will continue to be subject to suspension of liquidation and AD duty deposit requirements.
