The International Trade Administration issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review of steel nails from China (A-570-803). The ITA assigned a zero AD rate to Stanley, so entries manufactured and exported by the company will be liquidated without regard to AD duties, and no cash deposit will be collected. The ITA also rescinded the review for twelve companies,1 so these companies will continue to have the same AD cash deposit rates established in prior reviews. The new rates are effective March 18, and will be implemented by CBP soon.
House Communications Subcommittee Chairman Greg Walden, R-Ore., said Thursday at a subcommittee oversight hearing he’s concerned the FirstNet board is not sufficiently consulting state officials as it develops the first interoperable public safety network.

The Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act requires that the FirstNet board represent the interests of a broad range of stakeholders, including: public safety; states, territories, tribes and localities; and urban and rural representation.
