  2. for previously reviewed or investigated companies not listed above, the cash deposit rate will continue to be the company-specific rate published for the most recent final results in which that manufacturer or exporter participated;
  3. if the exporter is not a firm covered in this review, a prior review, or the original LTFV investigation, but the manufacturer is, the cash deposit rate will be the rate established for the most recent final results for the manufacturer of the merchandise; and
  4. if neither the exporter nor the manufacturer is a firm covered in this or any previous review conducted by the Department, the cash deposit rate will be 14.74 percent, the all-others rate established in the LTFV investigation.

Assessment Instructions

The ITA will determine, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will assess, AD duties on all appropriate entries. (See notice for special instructons for Borusan Group and Erbosan.) The ITA states it intends to issues its assessment instructions within 15 days of October 19.
