BP Note on China

In the amended preliminary AD duty determination for polyethylene retail carrier bags from China, the ITA indicated that the AD rates listed for the individually listed companies were applicable only when the individually listed companies both produce and export subject merchandise.

However, in the final and amended final AD duty determinations and in the order, ITA sources explain that this statement was omitted as the ITA realized it was inaccurate.
