South Korea and Turkey Welded Line Pipe: Commerce Postpones Preliminary AD Duty Determinations

The Commerce Department is postponing until May 14 the due date for its preliminary determination in the antidumping duty investigations on welded line pipe from South Korea and Turkey (A-580-876, A-489-822) (here). The group of U.S.-based manufacturers that requested the investigation asked for the extension. Once Commerce makes its preliminary determination, it can suspend liquidation and require cash deposits of estimated AD duties. The preliminary determination was originally due March 25.
