Separation costs relate to the planned portfolio repositioning actions. See Note 11. The decrease in Other for the third quarter reflects an $18 million gain on payments received related to dumping duties collected by U.S. Customs from 2006 through 2010, but not distributed to affected domestic producers until resolution of certain legal challenges to the U.S. Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act.
