OTHER CODES AND NOTATIONS
Provisional Measures  (Column 4):  Provisional measures apply from the date of a
preliminary determination of dumping to the date on which the Canadian International Trade Tribunal
makes its finding regarding injury caused to the Canadian industry (maximum 120 days from the
notice of the preliminary determination).
Definitive Duties  (Column 5):  Either the date of a positive injury finding, in the case of an
investigation or the date of the conclusion of a review of injury; or the date of the conclusion of a
review of normal values and export prices in cases where there is an existing Canadian International
Trade Tribunal finding of injury.  In the case of an investigation, the percentage represents the
weighted average margin of dumping as a percentage of normal value for the final determination ofdumping.
Price Undertaking (Column 6):  This column is used al so to report how Canada implements
the recommendation adopted by the Committee (G/ ADP/9, dated 29 November 2002).  “Informed”
means that the authorities informed exporters, via the public notice, of the possibilities of priceundertakings.  “Price undertaking explored” means that the authorities discussed price undertakings
with the exporters.
Total Trade Volume  (Column 11):  The total trade volume is based on statistical data for the
latest available 12 month period prior to the initiation, unless otherwise indicated.
CF: denotes Confidential.  The information provided to the authorities is given on a
confidential basis or the results of a calculation would disclose information provided on a confidential
basis.
N/A: denotes the information is not available.
R:  This symbol is used in the context of a review of an existing anti-dumping measure.
The symbol R(1)  refers to an administrative review of the normal values and export prices of
an existing anti-dumping measure.  The completion date of the review is shown in column 5;
however, generally it is not possible to state the marg in of dumping as it is not calculated in a review.
The symbol R(2)  refers to a sunset review of an existing anti-dumping measure to determine
whether the measure should be continued.
Renewal :  This indicates that an existing undertaking was renewed following a review.
Amendment :  This indicates a technical amendment was made to the undertaking, normally
to account for changes in the price or terms contained therein.
Not Renewed :  In column 10, the phrase Not Renewed means that an existing undertaking
was not renewed following a review and was allowed to expire on its anniversary date.G/ADP/N/105/CAN

NOTES
Note 1
The margins of dumping indicated in Column 4 reflect the results of the preliminary
determination of dumping and in Column 5 the results of the final determination of dumping.  Under
the prospective system for duty assessment, normal values and export prices are established in
advance of importation of subject goods and provided to known exporters.  Where goods are priced at
or above their specific normal values, they do not incur any duty liability on importation.  As such, the
percentages in Columns 4 and 5 do not necessarily reflect the amount of provisional duty or anti-
dumping duty that may be assessed.
Note 2
As a result of a request to review the orders made by the Canadian International Trade
Tribunal on certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate, the Tribunal initiated an interim review on7 May 2003.  The Tribunal indicated that it would make a decision on whether to amend its orders no
later than 26 June 2003.
On 13 June 2003, the Commissioner of Customs and Revenue initiated an investigation into
the alleged dumping of certain hot-rolled carbon steel plate from Bulgaria, Czech Republic andRomania.  Subsequently, the Tribunal initiated, on 16 June 2003, a preliminary injury inquiry to
determine whether the evidence discloses a reasonable indication that the dumping of the subject
carbon steel plate has caused material injury or retardation or is threatening to cause material injury to
the Canadian industry. As the Tribunal would be examining issues in the preliminary injury inquiry
similar to those raised in the above-mentioned inte rim review, the Tribunal has decided to suspend the
interim review.  The Tribunal will recommence its interim review at a date to be determined.
Note 3
At the preliminary determination of dumping of xanthates, provisional duties were assessed at
29 or 49 per cent of the export price, depending upon the exporter.
Note 4
At the preliminary determination of dumping of steel pipe nipples, couplings and pipe fittings,
provisional duties were assessed as follows: Pipe nipples 238 per cent, threaded couplings 119 percent and pipe fittings 101 per cent of export price.
Note 5
At the preliminary determination of dumping, the provisional duties were assessed as follows:
Hong Kong, China: 42 per cent or 187 per cent; Macao, China 26 per cent or 187 per cent; Viet Nam:
72 per cent or 187 per cent of export price, depending upon the exporter.G/ADP/N/105/CAN
