(b) If the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original AD investigation, but the manufacturer is, the AD duty cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and

(c) The AD duty cash deposit rate for all other manufacturers or exporters will continue to be 11.30%, the "all others" rate from the AD investigation.

Assessment Instructions for the Review Period (02/01/05 - 01/31/06)

The ITA states that it intends to issue assessment instructions for subject merchandise to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 15 days after February 5, 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 Agro Dutch 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.
