In a June 6 ruling, Mu Si received a preliminary duty of 103.55% and Bon Ten received a 0% duty.
The DOC extended the review for 60 days in response to issues Mu Si and the petitioners have raised regarding their shipments.
The final duties assigned to these companies will apply to wood bedroom furniture shipments made to the U.S. between Jan. 1 and July 1 of 2007. The final duties for the review period in question are to be paid by companies that import from these factories.
