Russia Hot-Rolled Steel: Prelim Results of AD Admin Review

The Commerce Department issued the preliminary results of its antidumping duty administrative review on hot-rolled carbon steel flat products from Russia (A-821-809) (here). The agency assigned an AD rate of 184.56% for the only company under review, Severstal PAO and its affiliate Severstal Export. Any changes to Severstal's cash deposit rate would take effect on the publication date of the final results of this review, currently due in May. Once it issues its final results, Commerce will assess AD duties at importer-specific rates for entries of subject merchandise from Severstal entered between Dec. 19, 2014, and Nov. 30, 2015.
