Three more companies are now set to be exempt from antidumping duties on multilayered wood flooring from China, after the Commerce Department on July 25 issued a notice implementing a recent Court of International Trade decision. Dunhua City Jisen Wood Industry Co., Ltd., Fine Furniture (Shanghai) Limited, and Armstrong Wood Products (Kunshan) Co., Ltd. will all be exempt from AD duties should the decision become final, Commerce said. All three of the companies had sought to be individually examined in the original AD duty investigation, but Commerce improperly denied their requests, CIT said. The partial revocation of the orders is set to take effect for entries on or after July 13, 2018. Commerce will set these companies’ cash deposit rates to zero until the period for appealing the CIT decision runs out, it said.

CBP is withdrawing a proposed ruling revocation on children's fishing rod and reel combinations after further review, CBP said in the July 11 Customs Bulletin (Vol. 52, No. 28). CBP proposed the revocation in September of 2016 (see 1609290012), saying that because children’s fishing rods and reels are not principally used for amusement purposes, they are not classifiable as a “toy” under heading 9503. Additional consideration of physical characteristics of fishing rods led to CBP's decision to withdraw its proposal, it said.
