Final Results of CCR
For the reasons stated in the Preliminary Results, Commerce
continues to find that Kader Exports is the successor-in-interest to
the Liberty Group. As a result of this determination and consistent
with established practice, we find that Kader Exports should receive
the AD cash deposit rate previously assigned to the Liberty Group.
Consequently, Commerce will instruct U.S. Customs and Border Protection
to suspend liquidation of all shipments of subject merchandise produced
or exported by Kader Exports and entered, or withdrawn from warehouse,
for consumption on or after the publication date of this notice in the
Federal Register at zero percent, which is the current AD cash deposit
rate for the Liberty Group.\7\ This cash deposit

requirement shall remain in effect until further notice.
