Russia Ferrosilicon: AD Preliminary Negative Determination, No Duties Imposed
The Commerce Department will not yet suspend liquidation and impose an antidumping duty cash deposit requirement on imports of ferrosilicon from Russia (A-821-820), after finding Russian companies didn't dump subject merchandise in the U.S. in its preliminary AD duty determination. The agency calculated zero AD duty rates for the only respondent, RFA International. Commerce will revisit the issue when it issues its final determination, and may at that point suspend liquidation and impose an AD duty cash deposit requirement if it finds dumping. If Commerce doesn't change its finding, then no AD duty order will be issued.
