Assessment Instructions for the Review Period (08/01/04 - 07/31/05)
The ITA states that it will issue appropriate assessment instructions for subject merchandise to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 15 days after January 17, 2007.
Additionally, the ITA states that it calculated importer-specific duty assessment rates for subject merchandise, which trade sources note may differ significantly from the AD cash deposit rate listed above (which is a weighted average).
The ITA adds that for entries of subject merchandise during the review period produced by Solvay for which it did not know its merchandise was destined for the U.S., the ITA will instruct CBP to liquidate unreviewed entries at the "all-others" rate if there is no rate for the intermediate company(ies) involved in the transaction.
