The International Trade Administration issued an antidumping duty order on utility scale wind towers from China (A-570-981).

President Barack Obama touted his executive order on cybersecurity during his State of the Union speech Tuesday as a step to “strengthen our cyberdefenses by increasing information sharing, and developing standards to protect our national security, our jobs, and our privacy,” and urged Congress to pass legislation to further the order’s goals. Enemies of the U.S. are “seeking the ability to sabotage our power grid, our financial institutions, and our air traffic control systems,” he said. “We cannot look back years from now and wonder why we did nothing in the face of real threats to our security and our economy."

The International Trade Administration issued the final results of the antidumping duty administrative review of narrow woven ribbons with woven selvedge from China (A-570-952). In the August 2012 preliminary results, the ITA found Hubschercorp uncooperative and assigned it the China-wide rate, and found Stribbons to be part of the China-wide entity because of a late separate rate certification. The ITA made no changes in these final results, continuing to find Hubschercorp uncooperative. The new rates are effective Feb. 13, and will be implemented by CBP soon.
