Countervailing Duty Order 

On July 28, 2008, in accordance with 

section 705(d) of the Act, the ITC 

notified the Department of its final 

determination that the industry in the 

United States producing LWRP is 

materially injured within the meaning 

of section 705(b)(1)(A)(i) of the Act by 

reason of subsidized imports of LWRP 

from the PRC. 

Therefore, countervailing duties will 

be assessed on all unliquidated entries 

of LWRP from the PRC entered, or 

withdrawn from warehouse, for 

consumption on or after November 30, 

2007, the date on which the Department 

published its preliminary affirmative 

countervailing duty determination in 

the Federal Register,1 and before March 

29, 2008, the date the Department 

instructed U.S. Customs and Border 

Protection (CBP) to discontinue the 

suspension of liquidation in accordance 

with section 703(d) of the Act. Section 

703(d) of the Act states that the 

suspension of liquidation pursuant to a 

preliminary determination may not 

remain in effect for more than four 

months. Therefore, entries of LWRP 

made on or after March 29, 2008, and 

prior to the date of publication of the 

ITC’s final determination in the Federal 

Register are not liable for the 

assessment of countervailing duties due 

to the Department’s discontinuation, 

effective March 29, 2008, of the 

suspension of liquidation. 

In accordance with section 706 of the 

Act, the Department will direct CBP to 

reinstitute the suspension of liquidation 

for LWRP from the PRC, effective the 

date of publication of the ITC’s notice of 

final determination in the Federal 

Register and to assess, upon further 

advice by the Department pursuant to 

section 706(a)(1) of the Act, 

countervailing duties for each entry of 

the subject merchandise in an amount 

based on the net countervailable 

subsidy rates for the subject 

merchandise as noted below.
