ITC Announces Expected Postponement of AD/CVD Deadlines

As promised, the International Trade Commission is extending by 16 days all deadlines in its antidumping and countervailing duty proceedings, on account of the Oct. 1-16 federal government shutdown. The Commerce Department granted a similar extension for its own AD/CVD deadlines (see 13101821). The ITC said it would toll AD/CVD deadlines at the beginning of the shutdown (see 13100212). The commission also set new dates for conferences on its preliminary injury determinations in three ongoing AD/CVD proceedings on monosodium glutamate, grain-oriented electrical steel (GOES), and non-oriented electrical steel (NOES).
