1. On 07/20/2016, the International Trade Commission (ITC) determined that critical circumstances do not exist with respect to certain corrosion-resistant steel products from the People's Republic of China (81 FR 47177). As a result of the ITC's negative determination of critical circumstances, CBP should terminate the suspension of liquidation for all shipments of certain corrosion-resistant steel products from the People's Republic of China that were entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption before 01/04/2016 (the date of publication of Commerce's affirmative preliminary determination notice in the Federal Register). All such entries should be liquidated without regard to antidumping duties (i.e., return all cash deposits).
