In conformity with the WTO authorisation to suspend the application of concessions to the United States, the Commission shall adjust the level of suspension annually to the level of nullification or impairment caused by the CDSOA to the Community at that time.

On the basis of the data published by the United States’ Customs and Border Protection, the level of nullification or impairment caused to the Community is calculated at USD 33,38 million. (3)  Since the level of nullification or impairment and conse- quently of suspension has decreased, the last 30 products of the list in Annex I to Regulation (EC) No 673/2005 should be removed from the list in Annex I to that Regulation. (4)  The effect of a 15 % ad valorem additional import duty on imports from the United States of the products in the amended Annex I represents, over one year, a value of trade that does not exceed USD 33,38 million. (5)  To make sure that there are no delays in the customs clearance of goods removed from the scope of the 15 % ad valorem additional import duty, this Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication.
