US DOC: Preliminary results of AD review on WR from Canada

On November 6, 2006, the US Department of Commerce (DOC) initiated a changed circumstances review of the antidumping duty order on imports of carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod from Canada to determine whether Ivaco Rolling Mills 2004 L.P. is the successor-in-interest to Ivaco Rolling Mills L.P.; and whether Sivaco Ontario, a division of Sivaco Wire Group 2004 L.P., is the successor-in-interest to Ivaco Inc. The DOC has preliminarily determined that Ivaco Rolling Mills 2004 L.P. is the successor-in-interest to Ivaco Rolling Mills L.P.; and Sivaco Ontario is the successor-in-interest to Ivaco Inc. As a result, Ivaco Rolling Mills 2004 L.P., and Sivaco Ontario (collectively “Ivaco”) should receive the same antidumping duty treatment with respect to carbon and certain alloy steel wire rod from Canada as Ivaco Rolling Mills L.P. and Ivaco Inc.
