Liquidation 'as Entered' for Entries From Exporters Not Subject to Review
Only the exporters for which an administrative review was requested are covered by this review. Cash deposit rates for all other exporters will not change. Commerce has ordered liquidation “as entered” for entries during the period of review from all exporters for which a review was not requested or review requests were withdrawn (ADCVDWeb Message # 4074439).
Commerce said it is also rescinding the review for nine companies listed in Appendix II of its notice, as there are no reviewable, suspended entries from these companies during the review period. Those include the following companies that submitted evidence of no shipments during the review period: Benxi Flooring Factory (General Partnership); Dongtai Fuan Universal Dynamics, LLC; HaiLin LinJing Wooden Products Co., Ltd.; Jiashan On-Line Lumber Co., Ltd.; Suzhou Dongda Wood Co., Ltd.; and Zhejiang Shiyou Timber Co., Ltd. Entries from these companies also will be liquidated as entered.
Cash Deposit Requirements
For companies that remain subject to review, new CV duty cash deposit requirements may take effect beginning on the date of publication of the final results in the Federal Register, currently scheduled for July. Commerce preliminarily calculated the following CVD cash deposit rates:
| Producer/Exporter | CVD Rate (Prelim) |
|---|---|
| Riverside Plywood Corp. / Baroque Timber Industries (Zhongshan) Co., Ltd. / Suzhou Times Flooring Co., Ltd. / Zhongshan Lianjia Flooring Co., Ltd. | 11.17% |
