DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE (COMMERCE) HAS REVOKED THE COUNTERVAILING
DUTY ORDER ON CUT-TO-LENGTH CARBON STEEL PLATE FROM BRAZIL

TERMINATE THE SUSPENSION OF LIQUIDATION FOR ALL SHIPMENTS OF
CUT-TO-LENGTH CARBON STEEL PLATE FROM BRAZIL, ENTERED OR

ALL ENTRIES OF THE SUBJECT MERCHANDISE THAT WERE SUSPENDED ON OR

3. THE ASSESSMENT OF COUNTERVAILING DUTIES BY CBP ON ENTRIES OF

DUTIES. THE INTEREST PROVISIONS ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO CASH OR

BE CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF PAYMENT OF ESTIMATED

COUNTERVAILING DUTIES THROUGH THE DATE OF LIQUIDATION. THE RATE
