The CBSA has requested information relating to the subject goods from possible exporters and importers of subject goods. All parties have been clearly advised of the CBSA's information requirements and the time frames for providing their responses.
Exporters that wish to participate are required to provide a complete and accurate submission by November 27, 2009. For exporters that co-operate with the CBSA in this re-investigation, the normal values that are established will be effective for subject goods released from the CBSA on or after February 23, 2010, or the date of the ruling letter to the exporter, whichever occurs first. In addition, the new normal values may be applied to any entries of subject goods under appeal that have yet to be re-determined at the time of the conclusion of this re-investigation.
When sufficient information has not been submitted to the CBSA to permit the determination of specific normal values for subject goods, the normal values will be determined on the basis of an advance of 49% over the export price in accordance with a ministerial specification pursuant to section 29 of Special Import Measures Act. This will result in the assessment of anti-dumping duty at the rate of 49% of the export price
Responses to the Importer Request for Information are due by November 12, 2009.
