Russia and Venezuela Ferrosilicon: Commerce Postpones CV Duty Preliminary Determinations

The Commerce Department is postponing until March 4 its preliminary determinations in the countervailing duty investigations on ferrosilicon from Russia and Venezuela (C-821-820, C-307-824). The agency’s preliminary findings were originally due Jan. 13, but the domestic petitioners requested an extension. Commerce also said it needs more time to review information "critical to the proceedings." Commerce may begin to require CV duty cash deposits when it publishes its preliminary determination in the Federal Register.
