The Commission’s determination in any expedited review will be based on the facts available, which may include information provided in response to this notice. Definitions.

(2) The Subject Country in this review is China. (3) The Domestic Like Product is the domestically produced product or products which are like, or in the absence of like, most similar in characteristics and uses with, the Subject Merchandise.

(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S. producers as a whole of the Domestic Like Product, or those producers whose collective output of the Domestic Like Product constitutes a major proportion of the total domestic production of the product. In its original determination, the Commission defined a single Domestic Industry consisting of all domestic producers of frontseating service valves, regardless of size, but not including producers of backseating valves or ball valves. (5) The Order Date is the date that the antidumping duty order under review became effective. In this review, the Order Date is April 28, 2009.

Investigation 731-TA-1148 is a U.S. International Trade Commission antidumping (AD) proceeding on Frontseating Service Valves from the People's Republic of China, Inv. No. 731-TA-1148 (Review). The ITC determines whether U.S. industry is materially injured (or threatened) by imports under investigation; Commerce determines whether dumping or subsidization is occurring. Both findings are required for an AD/CVD order to be issued.
731-TA-1148 is in the review phase, with status completed. Review phase — typically a sunset review (every 5 years) to determine whether revoking the order would lead to recurrence of dumping/injury. Affirmative findings keep the order in force; negative findings revoke it.
Not yet. 731-TA-1148 has not produced an AD/CVD order in Tandom's catalog. If both Commerce and the ITC issue affirmative final determinations, an order would issue and link to this investigation. Until then, no cash deposits apply.
