ITA Postpones Final AD Determination to May 7th
The respondents in this investigation requested that the ITA postpone its final AD duty determination by 60 days, and extend the application of the provisional measures from a 4-month period to a 6-month period.
Because the ITA's preliminary determination is affirmative, the requesting exporters account for a significant proportion of exports of the subject merchandise, and no compelling reasons for denial exist, the ITA is granting the request and is postponing the final determination until no later than 135 days after the publication date of the preliminary determination, which is May 7, 2010.
Suspension of liquidation will be extended accordingly.
