The Commerce Department published notices in the April 3 Federal Register on the following AD/CV duty proceedings (any notices that announce changes to AD/CV duty rates, scope, affected firms, or effective dates will be detailed in another ITT article):
The Commerce Department initiated two antidumping duty new shipper reviews on frozen fish fillets from Vietnam (A-552-801) pursuant to requests from Nam Phuong Seafood Co., Ltd. and NTACO Corporation for merchandise each company both produces and exports. Commerce will determine whether Nam Phuong and NTACO are eligible for estimated AD cash deposit rates other than the Vietnam-wide entity rate they currently receive.
The Commerce Department will order the refund of antidumping duty cash deposits on oil country tubular goods from Taiwan (A-583-850), after the discovery of an error in its preliminary determination prompted the agency to drop AD duty rates for all Taiwanese companies to zero. Commerce had originally suspended liquidation and required cash deposits in February upon finding dumping of OCTG from Taiwan by Tension Steel (see 14022413), but the agency now says it committed a “major” error and the AD rate for Tension Steel should have been zero. With AD rates for all Taiwanese companies now set to zero, Commerce will also end suspension of liquidation for entries of Taiwan OCTG for the time being.

The Commerce Department is postponing until May 21 the preliminary determination in its antidumping duty investigation on 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane from China (A-570-998). The preliminary determination was originally due April 21, but Commerce said the investigation is “extraordinarily complicated,” so it needs more time to analyze company data and request more if necessary. Cash deposits of estimated AD duties may be required beginning on the date of Commerce’s preliminary determination, and in certain circumstances cash deposit requirements may be made retroactive 90 days before the agency’s preliminary finding.
The Commerce Department issued the preliminary results of its antidumping duty administrative review on magnesium metal from China (A-570-896). The agency said the only company under review, Tianjin Magnesium International Co., Ltd. (TMI), had no exports of subject merchandise to the U.S. during the period under review. If Commerce's "no shipments" finding for TMI is continued in the final results, TMI won't get a new AD rate. Instead, subject merchandise from that company will continue to enter at AD rates set in the most recent previous review. Commerce will make its final decision when it issues the final results of this review, currently due in July.
