Preliminary results of AD review on stainless steel bar from Germany

On March 7, 2002, the US Department of Commerce (DOC) imposed an antidumping duty order on stainless steel bar imported from Germany. Upon the request of petitioners, and the request of respondent, the DOC, on April 22, 2005, initiated an antidumping administrative review for imports of subject merchandise from four affiliated German producers/exporters (collectively known as BGH) during the period from March 1, 2004, through February 28, 2005. Subject to the review were BGH Edelstahl Freital GmbH, BGH Edelstahl Lippendorf GmbH, BGH Edelstahl Lugau GmbH, and BGH Edelstahl Siegen GmbH. The Department calculated a preliminary weighted-average dumping margin of 1.06 percent for BGH.
