Income For Continued Dumping And Subsidy Offset Act [Text Block]	Income for Continued Dumping and Subsidy Offset Act (CDSOA) The CDSOA provides for distribution of monies collected by U.S. Customs and Border Protection for imports covered by antidumping duty orders entering the United States through September 30, 2007 to qualified domestic producers. During 2012, we recorded income of $39.3 million, net of related expenses, from CDSOA distributions previously withheld by Customs pending resolution of non-supporting producers’ claims seeking to share in these distributions. Although these claims have not been completely resolved by the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, Customs distributed the holdback to the supporting producers in April of 2012. Based on what we know today, we believe there is only a remote possibility that Customs will seek and be entitled to obtain a return of all or a portion of our share of the distributed funds. We recorded income of $4.0 million and $1.6 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively, from CDSOA payments and other related payments, net of legal expenses.
