China Forged Steel Fittings: Amended Final Results of CVD Admin Review
The Commerce Department is amending the final results of a countervailing duty administrative review on forged steel fittings from China (C-570-068) to correct a duty calculation for Both-Well (Taizhou) Steel Fittings, Co., Ltd. In the final results of that review, covering the period March 14, 2018, to Dec. 31, 2018, Commerce assigned to Both-Well, the mandatory respondent, a dumping margin of 25.9%.

The amendment corrects the dumping margin to 15.36% for Both-Well, aligning Commerce's results with those determined in a court case over Commerce's final results in that review, but will not affect the current cash deposit rate -- 13.48% is the rate for Both-Well -- assigned in the most recent final results of the CVD administrative review of subject goods (see 2206090039).
Since there have been final results published in a subsequent administrative review, Commerce said it will not issue revised cash deposit instructions to CBP. The amended results are effective Sept. 23.
The notice also said that Commerce remains, at this time, enjoined by court order from liquidating entries "that were produced and/or exported by Both-Well, and were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption during the period March 14, 2018, through December 31, 2018. These entries will remain enjoined pursuant to the terms of the injunction during the pendency of any appeals process."
(The review period is 03/14/18 - 12/31/18. See Commerce's notice for more information, including the scope of the order, detailed cash deposit and assessment instructions, etc. See 2103170014 for a summary of the original final results of this administrative review.)
