OPINION AND ORDER
EATON, Judge.
This matter is before the court on the Canadian Wheat Board's ("CWB") motion for a preliminary injunction pursuant to USCIT Rule 65(a). By its motion, plaintiff seeks an order enjoining the United States, the United States Department of Commerce ("Commerce" or the "Department") and the Bureau of Customs and Border Protection ("Customs") from liquidating or causing or permitting to be liquidated all entries of Canadian hard red spring ("HRS") wheat that were: "(1) entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption prior to January 2, 2006; (2) imported into the United States by or on behalf of the CWB; and (3) subject to the antidumping . . . and countervailing duty . . . orders on HRS wheat from Canada. . . ." Pl.'s Mem. P. & A. Supp. Mot. TRO & Prelim. Inj. 1 ("Pl.'s Mem.");[1]see also HRS Wheat from Canada, 68 Fed. Reg. 60,641 (Dep't of Commerce Oct. 23, 2003) (notice) (antidumping duty order); HRS Wheat from Canada, 68 Fed.Reg. 60,642 (Dep't of Commerce Oct. 23, 2003) *1237 (notice) (countervailing duty order) (collectively, the "AD/CVD Orders").
Plaintiff's substantive challenge is to a legal conclusion contained in Commerce's notice of revocation of the AD/CVD Orders, which was published following a negative injury determination of the United States International Trade Commission ("ITC" or the "Commission"). See HRS Wheat from Canada, Notice of Panel Decision, Revocation of Countervailing and Antidumping Duty Orders and Termination of Suspension of Liquidation, 71 Fed.Reg. 8275 (Dep't of Commerce Feb. 16, 2006) (notice) ("Notice of Revocation"). The ITC made its negative determination following remand from a binational panel assembled pursuant to article 1904 of the North American Free Trade Agreement ("NAFTA"). Specifically, plaintiff takes issue with Commerce's statement in the Notice of Revocation that it would instruct Customs to liquidate, without duties, only those imports that "entered the United States on or after January 2, 2006." Id. For plaintiff, Commerce committed legal error by not making the Notice of Revocation applicable to all entries, the liquidation of which had been suspended, made while the now invalid AD/CVD Orders were in place. Plaintiff claims that its position is supported by this Court's decision in Tembec, Inc. v. United States, 30 CIT ___, 461 F.Supp.2d 1355 (2006) ("Tembec II"), judgment vacated by Tembec, Inc. v. United States, 31 CIT, 475 F.Supp.2d 1393 (2007) ("Tembec III").[2]See id. at ___, 461 F.Supp.2d at 1367 ("Congress did not set up a system to retain duties that are not owed.").
The CWB asserts 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i)(4) (2000)[3] as the jurisdictional basis for its suit. By its opposition to plaintiff's motion, the United States, on behalf of Commerce, argues that the Court lacks jurisdiction over this matter. See Def.'s Opp'n Pl.'s Mot. Prelim. Inj. 4-10 ("Def.'s Opp'n"). For the reasons that follow, the court finds that jurisdiction lies pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i)(4). In addition, the court grants plaintiffs motion for a preliminary injunction.

BACKGROUND
The CWB is an exporter of Canadian HRS wheat. In September 2002, the domestic wheat industry petitioned both Commerce and the ITC seeking investigations into possible dumping and subsidization of Canadian HRS wheat, and the effects of Canadian wheat imports on the U.S. market. Thereafter, the Department published its findings that Canadian HRS wheat was both subsidized and being sold in the United States at less than fair value. See Certain Durum Wheat and HRS Wheat from Canada, 68 Fed.Reg. 52,747 (Dep't of Commerce Sept. 5, 2003) (final affirmative countervailing duty determination); Certain Durum Wheat and HRS Wheat from Canada, 68 Fed.Reg. 52,741 (Dep't of Commerce Sept. 5, 2003) (final affirmative sales at less than fair value determination).
In October 2003, after conducting its own investigation, the ITC determined *1238 that imports of Canadian HRS wheat were materially injuring the domestic industry. See Durum and HRS Wheat from Canada, USITC Pub. 3639, Inv. Nos. 701-TA-430A and 430B and 731-TA-1019A and 1019B (Oct.2003) (Final). Thereafter, on October 23, 2003, Commerce published the AD/ CVD Orders.
Plaintiff challenged the ITC's affirmative determination before a NAFTA panel. On June 7, 2005, the NAFTA panel found unsupported by substantial evidence the ITC's affirmative material injury determination and remanded the matter to the Commission for further consideration. See HRS Wheat from Canada, USA-CD2003-1904-06 (panel decision) at 64 (June 7, 2005), available at http://www.nafta-secalena.o rg/app/DocRepository/1/Disput e/english/NAFTA_Chapter_19/USA/ua03060e.pdf (last visited Apr. 24, 2007). On remand, the ITC reversed its original affirmative determination and concluded "that an industry in the United States is not materially injured, or threatened with material injury, by reason of imports of [HRS] wheat from Canada found to be subsidized and sold in the United States at less than fair value." HRS Wheat from Canada, USITC Pub. 3806, Inv. Nos. 701-TA-430B and 731-TA-1019B (Oct.2005) (Remand).
The domestic wheat industry then challenged the ITC's negative determination before the NAFTA panel. On December 12, 2005, the NAFTA panel sustained the ITC's negative determination and ordered the U.S. NAFTA Secretary to issue a Notice of Final Panel Action. See HRS Wheat from Canada, USA-CDA-2003-1904-06 (panel decision on remand determination) at 5, 21-22 (Dec. 12, 2005), available at http://www.nafta-sec-alena.org/app/ DocRepository/1/ua03061e.pdf (last visited Apr. 24, 2007). That notice was issued on December 23, 2005.
On January 30, 2006, the U.S. NAFTA Secretary published in the Federal Register a Notice of Completion of Panel Review, which by its terms was effective as of January 24, 2006. See Article 1904 NAFTA Panel Reviews; Completion of Panel Review, 71 Fed.Reg. 4896 (Dep't of Commerce Jan. 30, 2006) (notice).
On January 31, 2006, pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(B), Commerce published in the Federal Register notice that the NAFTA panel's final decision was not in harmony with the Commission's original affirmative injury determination. See HRS Wheat from Canada: NAFTA Panel Decision, 71 Fed.Reg. 5050 (Dep't of Commerce Jan. 31, 2006) ("Timken Notice"); see also Timken Co. v. United States, 893 F.2d 337, 340 (Fed.Cir.1990). This notice had an effective date of January 2, 2006.[4] The notice stated that it "serve[d] to suspend liquidation of entries of subject merchandise entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption on or after January 2, 2006, i.e., 10 days from the issuance of the Notice of Final Panel Action, at the current cash deposit rate." Timken Notice, 71 Fed.Reg. at 5051. Thus, the notice preserved from liquidation those entries made on or after January 2, 2006, but did nothing to prevent *1239 liquidation of earlier entries made with unfair trade duties in place.
Commerce took this action even though it recognized that the ITC's negative determination removed the foundation for the AD/CVD Orders. That is, the ITC's October 2003 affirmative injury determination had been reversed. In keeping with this reversal, on February 16, 2006, the Department published the Notice of Revocation, which "revok[ed] the countervailing duty order and antidumping duty order on [HRS] wheat from Canada. . . ." Notice of Revocation, 71 Fed.Reg. at 8275. Nonetheless, Commerce explicitly stated that the Notice of Revocation "[did] not affect the liquidation of entries made prior to January 2, 2006." Id.
Plaintiff's entries were made in September 2004. At the time plaintiff entered its merchandise, the goods were subject to the duties imposed by the then-existing AD/CVD Orders. As a result, the CWB paid cash deposits based on the 5.29 percent net subsidy rate and 8.86 percent antidumping duty margin.[5] Liquidation of these entries was suspended on October 31, 2005, when the CWB filed a request for an administrative review of the AD/CVD Orders. See Pl.'s Mem. 6. On February 26, 2007, however, the CWB withdrew its request for an administrative review, thereby exposing its entries to liquidation under the terms of the Notice of Revocation. See Pl.'s Mem. 7.
On February 21, 2007, nearly one year after the publication of the Notice of Revocation, the CWB commenced this action. Plaintiff now asks the court to enjoin preliminarily the liquidation of its merchandise to allow it to litigate the merits of its case.

DISCUSSION
The Courts have developed the familiar four-part test requiring a party seeking injunctive relief to establish that: (1) it is likely to succeed on the merits of its complaint; (2) absent an injunction, it will be irreparably harmed; (3) the balance of hardships on the parties favors the movant; and (4) the public interest would be better served by the issuance of the injunction. See FMC Corp. v. United States, 3 F.3d 424, 427 (Fed.Cir.1993); Zenith Radio Corp. v. United States, 710 F.2d 806, 809 (Fed.Cir.1983).
In determining whether the movant has carried its burden and satisfied the four-part test, "[n]o one factor, taken individually is necessarily dispositive." FMC Corp., 3 F.3d at 427. Indeed, "[a]s a basic proposition, the matter lies largely within the sound discretion of the [Court]." Id.
I. Likelihood of Success on the Merits
The court first addresses plaintiff's claim that it is likely to succeed on the merits of its case. Here, the most significant obstacle facing it is defendant's assertion that the Court lacks jurisdiction to grant the relief sought.
The Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has held that "[t]he question of jurisdiction closely affects the [movant]'s likelihood of success on its motion for a preliminary injunction." U.S. Ass'n of Imps. of Textiles & Apparel v. U.S. Dep't of Commerce, 413 F.3d 1344, 1348 (Fed. Cir.2005). The importance of addressing *1240 the question of jurisdiction when deciding a motion for a preliminary injunction is amplified by the Federal Circuit's statement that failure to do so is legal error. See id. While this rule may be most applicable where a court grants rather than denies a motion seeking an injunction, see Nippon Steel Corp. v. United States, 219 F.3d 1348, 1353 (Fed.Cir.2000), here, a discussion of jurisdiction appears to be mandatory.
Plaintiff claims that the Court may hear this case under its residual provision of jurisdiction set forth in 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i). The important caveat to finding jurisdiction under this provision is that "[s]ection 1581(i) jurisdiction may not be invoked when jurisdiction under another subsection of § 1581 is or could have been available, unless the remedy provided under that other subsection would be manifestly inadequate." Miller & Co. v. United States, 824 F.2d 961, 963 (Fed.Cir.1987). Thus, as an initial matter, the court must address defendant's contention that plaintiff is precluded from litigating its action under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i)(4) because jurisdiction was available under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c).[6]
A. Notice of Revocation and Reviewability Pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1516a
The court first takes up the question of whether the Notice of Revocation constitutes a reviewable determination under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a and thus may be reviewed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c). Defendant insists that this is this case, while plaintiff claims that the Notice of Revocation is not a reviewable determination and thus lies outside the Court's 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c) jurisdiction.[7] While plaintiff acknowledges that the Notice of Revocation contains a legal conclusion resulting from Commerce's application of the unfair trade laws, it maintains that the notice did not announce a final determination within the meaning of 19 U.S.C. § 1516a. Rather, plaintiff argues that the Notice of Revocation merely implemented the ITC's negative injury determination. Further, plaintiff asserts that because the Notice of Revocation reflects Commerce's administration and enforcement of the antidumping and countervailing duty laws, it is reviewable by this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i)(4).
The Department's primary objection to plaintiff's assertion of jurisdiction is that the "CWB could have challenged the Notice of Revocation pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c). . . ." Def.'s Opp'n 4. Underlying the Department's position is its contention that the Notice of Revocation is a reviewable determination under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(B)(i), and therefore judicial review was available at the time of its issuance. See Def.'s Opp'n 5. Thus, the Department claims that because plaintiff could have obtained the same remedy it now seeks had it proceeded under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c), the exercise of jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i) is prohibited. See Def.'s Opp'n 4 (citing Int'l Custom Prods., Inc. v. United States, 467 F.3d 1324, 1327 (Fed.Cir.2006); Norcal/Crosetti *1241 Foods, Inc. v. United States, 963 F.2d 356, 359 (Fed.Cir.1992)).
Specifically, the Department states that in issuing the Notice of Revocation:
Commerce reapplied the antidumping duty statutes with respect to the issuance of antidumping duty orders and concluded that the orders should be revoked only prospectively. In essence, Commerce amended its determinations in the investigations, which pursuant to [Freeport Minerals Co. v. United States, 758 F.2d 629 (Fed.Cir.1985)],[8] were reviewable pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1516a and 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c).
Def.'s Opp'n 7.
In keeping with this argument, Commerce asserts that because it believes the Notice of Revocation was a final determination subject to review in this Court pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1516a and 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c), plaintiff untimely commenced the instant action. According to Commerce:
CWB is impermissibly attempting [to] bring a claim that it could have brought pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c) more than a year ago, when the Notice of Revocation was issued. Such a claim is untimely pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(A), and CWB may not circumvent that statutory bar by attempting to invoke the Court's jurisdiction pursuant to section 1581(i).
Def.'s Opp'n 4-5.[9] Thus, because plaintiff waited more than a year from the publication of the Notice of Revocation to sue, defendant insists that its claim is barred by the 30-day statute of limitations applicable to determinations reviewable under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a. See 28 U.S.C. § 2636(c).
Commerce's arguments notwithstanding, the court finds that the Notice of Revocation is not a reviewable final determination under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a and, as a result, plaintiff had no remedy available to it under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c). While the agency may have had internal discussions regarding the contents of the Notice of Revocation, its legal conclusion that the *1242 revocation of the orders should be prospective only, was reached without notice, public hearings or briefing by the parties and was outside of the reviewable determinations found in 19 U.S.C. § 1516a. In other words, the Notice of Revocation "was not made during any proceeding that would culminate in a determination for which judicial review is provided under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a and 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c)." Ceramica Regiomontana, S.A. v. United States, 5 CIT 23, 26, 557 F.Supp. 596, 600 (1983) (emphasis in original); see also Consol. Fibers, Inc. v. United States, 30 CIT ___, ___, 465 F.Supp.2d 1338, 1341 (2006) (finding no jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c) to hear plaintiffs claim challenging ITC's denial of its request for reconsideration of ITC final determination and stating that "[h]ad the Commission commenced a reconsideration proceeding, then the resulting reconsideration determination would have been reviewable under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c) . . . ").
In like manner, the court finds without merit the Department's contention that the Notice of Revocation, because it revoked the AD/CVD Orders for all entries made on or after January 2, 2006, and reaffirmed the orders' application to all other entries, is a reviewable determination as defined by 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(B)(i). See Def.'s Opp'n 5. This argument is merely a different iteration of Commerce's previous claim.
Under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(B)(i), this Court may review final affirmative and negative determinations made by Commerce regarding countervailable subsidies or sales at less than fair value. The Department urges that the Notice of Revocation was a final affirmative determination in that it reasserted the legal effect of the affirmative determinations in the AD/CVD Orders with respect to entries made prior to January 2, 2006, and was a negative determination with respect to subject entries made after that date. In other words, the Department claims that the Notice of Revocation contains both a final affirmative and a final negative determination.
This contention is impossible to credit. In Norsk Hydro Canada, Inc. v. United States, 472 F.3d 1347 (Fed.Cir.2006), the Federal Circuit instructed this Court to "look to the true nature of [an] action." Id. at 1355 (internal quotation marks & citation omitted). The true nature of plaintiffs case can be seen by examining what it is not. That is, it is not a case "contesting any factual findings or legal conclusions" contained in the final determinations of either the ITC or Commerce, following their investigations. 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(1). Both Commerce's and the ITC's final determinations were published before the Notice of Revocation. The conclusion that the AD/CVD Orders should be revoked only prospectively was found in neither. Indeed, as the prevailing party, plaintiff had no dispute with the ITC's final negative determination that resulted in the Notice of Revocation. That being the case, the teaching of Consolidated Bearings Co. v. United States, 348 F.3d 997 (Fed.Cir.2003), is useful.
In Consolidated Bearings, an importer challenged Commerce's liquidation instructions to Customs, seeking to compel the application of the antidumping duty rates from the Department's final determination to its merchandise. The Federal Circuit confirmed jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i) after finding that "Consolidated [did] not object to the final results. Rather Consolidated [sought] application of those final results to its entries. . . ." Consol. Bearings, 348 F.3d at 1002. The Federal Circuit based its finding on its conclusion that plaintiffs "case involve[d] a challenge to [Commerce's] 1998 instructions, *1243 which is not an action defined under [19 U.S.C. § 1516a]." Id. The Federal Circuit further found that "[b]ecause Consolidated [was] not challenging the final results, [28 U.S.C. § 1581(c)] is not and could not have been a source of jurisdiction for this case." Id. Finally, after concluding that jurisdiction did not lie pursuant to § 1581(c), the Federal Circuit found the case "squarely within the provisions of subsection (i)." Id. Specifically, the Federal Circuit observed that "Commerce's liquidation instructions direct Customs to implement the final results of administrative reviews. Consequently, an action challenging Commerce's liquidation instructions is not a challenge to the final results, but a challenge to the `administration and enforcement' of those final results." Id.
Likewise, the Federal Circuit found in Shinyei Corp. of America v. United States, 355 F.3d 1297 (Fed.Cir.2004), that Commerce's liquidation instructions were reviewable under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i)(4):
As we have recently held, a challenge to Commerce instructions on the ground that they do not correctly implement the published, amended administrative review results, "is not an action defined under [19 U.S.C. § 1516a] of the Tariff Act." [19 U.S.C. § 1516a] is limited on its face to the judicial review of "determinations" in countervailing duty and antidumping duty proceedings.
Id. at 1309 (quoting Consol. Bearings, 348 F.3d at 1002).
The case law from the Federal Circuit, then, confirms that the Notice of Revocation is not a reviewable determination within the meaning of 19 U.S.C. § 1516a and thus plaintiffs challenge to its contents could not be heard by this Court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c). That is, if a legal conclusion, found in liquidation instructions based on Commerce's own final determination, is reviewable under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i), then a legal conclusion found in the Notice of Revocation resulting from an ITC final determination is too.
The court finds that the Notice of Revocation implemented the ITC's final determination that domestic wheat producers were not injured or threatened with injury by imports of Canadian FIRS wheat. Thus, although containing a legal conclusion with respect to the prospective application of the revocation, the Notice of Revocation cannot be categorized as a final affirmative determination subject to judicial review under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(B)(i) and 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c).
B. Choice of Forum and Jurisdiction
The court now turns to the question of whether plaintiffs decision to challenge the original ITC affirmative injury determination before a NAFTA panel rather than in this Court precludes jurisdiction over its claim under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i).
Commerce asserts that the "CWB could also have obtained an adequate remedy by challenging the ITC's original 2003 determination in this Court pursuant to section 1581(c) and, thus, section 1581(i) jurisdiction is unavailable. . . ." Def.'s Opp'n 7-8. Put another way, the Department maintains that by choosing to appeal the Commission's original affirmative injury determination to a NAFTA panel, the CWB is now "foreclosed from seeking relief from the Court, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i), to enforce the NAFTA panel decision or to obtain relief that it might have obtained had it elected to proceed in this Court in the first place." Def.'s Opp'n 8.
The Department recognizes that a similar line of argument was found wanting by this Court in Tembec, Inc. v. United States, 30 CIT ___, 441 F.Supp.2d 1302 *1244 (2006) ("Tembec I").[10]Tembec I involved plaintiffs' appeal of an affirmative injury determination from the ITC to a NAFTA panel. The panel found the ITC determination unsupported by substantial evidence and remanded the matter to the Commission. On remand, the Commission issued a negative injury determination. Thereafter, Commerce revoked the unfair trade orders prospectively.
Unlike here, the plaintiff in Tembec I also instituted a parallel proceeding before the World Trade Organization ("WTO"). That proceeding resulted in an affirmative injury determination by the ITC and a direction by the United States Trade Representative ("USTR") to Commerce to amend the unfair trade orders to implement the determination. The plaintiffs in Tembec I filed a lawsuit in this Court challenging the action taken by the USTR directing the implementation of the determination. See Tembec I, 30 CIT at ___, 441 F.Supp.2d at 1306.
The Tembec I Court found that plaintiffs' appeal of the final determination to a NAFTA panel did not preclude the exercise of jurisdiction by this Court to hear a separate challenge to the USTR's administration and enforcement of the determination. Thus, "the court [had] jurisdiction to review the administration and enforcement of that determination regardless of where the substance of the determination [was] being reviewed." Tembec I, 30 CIT at ___, ___, 441 F.Supp.2d at 1316 n. 19. In addition, the Tembec I Court acknowledged the general rule reiterated by the Federal Circuit in International Custom Products, Inc. v. United States, 467 F.3d 1324 (Fed.Cir.2006), that "section 1581(i) jurisdiction may not be invoked when jurisdiction under another subsection of § 1581 is or could have been available, unless the remedy provided under that other subsection would be manifestly inadequate," Tembec I, 30 CIT at ___, 441 F.Supp.2d at 1317 (internal quotation marks, citations & alteration omitted), but stated that "[t]his constraint does not mean, however, that Plaintiffs must forgo their right to NAFTA panel review of the substance of [a determination] in order to seek review of a completely separate action taken to administer and enforce [the determination]." Id. at ___, 441 F.Supp.2d at 1317.
Likewise, the CWB's challenge to the ITC's original affirmative injury determination before a NAFTA panel did not *1245 oust this Court of jurisdiction to entertain its challenge to Commerce's administration and enforcement of that determination. Therefore, because: (1) the legal conclusion found in the Notice of Revocation was not reviewable pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1516a and 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c); and (2) plaintiffs decision to contest the ITC's original affirmative injury determination before a NAFTA panel does not preclude the exercise of jurisdiction to hear plaintiffs challenge to the administration and enforcement of that determination, the court finds that it has jurisdiction over plaintiffs claim pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i)(4).
C. Prospective Revocation of AD/CVD Orders
As plaintiffs asserted basis of jurisdiction has been found to be valid, the court now addresses the likelihood that plaintiff will succeed on the substantive merits of its case. While the applicable standard for determining whether a movant has satisfied the likelihood of success on the merits portion of the four-part test remains unsettled by the Federal Circuit, it is apparent that the court must, at minimum, weigh plaintiffs arguments in favor of its position against those raised in opposition by defendant. See U.S. Ass'n of Imps. of Textiles and Apparel 413 F.3d at 1347 ("[T]he movant's evidence and arguments must actually be weighed against those of the non-movant to determine whether the movant's likelihood of success meets the applicable standard, whatever that standard may be.") (citations & footnote omitted).
The parties agree that plaintiff's case hinges on the interpretation and application of 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(B) and (C). Section 1516a(g)(5)(B) contains the general rule for the liquidation of pre-Timken notice entries and provides:
In the case of a determination for which binational panel review is requested pursuant to article 1904 of the NAFTA or of the Agreement, entries of merchandise covered by such determination shall be liquidated in accordance with the determination of the administering authority or the Commission, if they are entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, for consumption, on or before the date of publication in the Federal Register by the administering authority of notice of a final decision of a binational panel, or of an extraordinary challenge committee, not in harmony with that determination. Such notice of a decision shall be published within 10 days of the date of the issuance of the panel or committee decision.
19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(B).
There is, however, an exception to the general rule in 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(C), which is entitled "Suspension of liquidation" and states:
Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (B), in the case of a determination described in clause (iii) [administrative review] or (vi) [scope ruling] of subsection (a)(2)(B) of this section for which binational panel review is requested pursuant to article 1904 of the NAFTA or of the Agreement, the administering authority, upon request of an interested party who was a party to the proceeding in connection with which the matter arises and who is a participant in the binational panel review, shall order the continued suspension of liquidation of those entries of merchandise covered by the determination that are involved in the review pending the final disposition of the review.
19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(C)(i).
For Commerce, the language of § 1516a(g)(5)(B) applies and all plaintiffs entries made prior to the publication of the *1246 Timken Notice are to be liquidated in accordance with the original determination. See Def.'s Opp'n 13. For plaintiff, the exception found in § 1516a(g)(5)(C) applies and preserved its entries for liquidation with no duties following revocation of the AD/CVD Orders.
Plaintiff relies on Tembec II as support for its position that its entries, all of which were made prior to the Timken Notice, should be liquidated in accordance with the ITC's negative injury determination. In Tembec II, the Court found that the general rule of 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(B) did not apply to pre-Timken notice entries when liquidation of those entries had been suspended. In that case, the court found that 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(C) controlled. See Tembec II, 30 CIT at ___, 461 F.Supp.2d at 1367 ("Entries, the liquidation of which has been suspended, cannot, then, be liquidated with AD/CV duties under these conditions. . . . Rather, Congress provided for a suspension of liquidation to keep entries available for liquidation in accordance with law."); see also Asociacion Colombiana de Exportadores de Flores v. United States, 916 F.2d 1571, 1577 (Fed.Cir.1990) ("The flaw in the government's argument is that without a valid antidumping determination in the original order, there can be no valid determination in a later annual review."). Thus, the Tembec II Court ordered Commerce to instruct Customs to liquidate all of plaintiffs' subject entries, including those made prior to the Timken notice, without unfair trade duties.
The court cannot discern a substantial difference between the facts presented in this case and those faced by the Court. in Tembec II. Therefore, this Court's decision in Tembec II indicates that plaintiff will likely succeed on the merits of its case and thus this part of the four-part test favors granting plaintiffs motion.
II. Irreparable Harm
The next part of the four-part test requires a movant to demonstrate that it will suffer irreparable harm in the absence of an injunction. Plaintiff asserts that it will be irreparably harmed if liquidation is not enjoined because "[i]f Customs is permitted to liquidate the CWB's entr[ies] at issue in this action prior to the completion of judicial review, the CWB may be denied its only remedy for Commerce's failure to revoke the AD/CVD Orders and liquidate its entr[ies] in accordance with law." Pl.'s Mem. 10. In other words, plaintiff contends that if liquidation is not enjoined, Customs may liquidate its pre-January 2, 2006, entries with the unfair trade duties in place and the CWB will lose its opportunity to reclaim its deposits with respect to those entries. The Department does not oppose plaintiff's assertion of irreparable harm. See Tr. Oral Argument 24:7-8 ("Likewise, turning to irreparable injury, we agree that . . . under [Zenith Radio Corp. v. United States, 710 F.2d 806 (Fed. Cir.1983)] plaintiff[] would meet that prong.").
It has long been established that liquidation renders without meaning a movant's "statutory right to obtain judicial review" with respect to the liquidated entries and, thus, that the "consequences of liquidation do constitute irreparable injury." Zenith, 710 F.2d at 810 ("The statutory scheme has no provision permitting reliquidation in this case or imposition of higher dumping duties after liquidation if [plaintiff] is successful on the merits. Once liquidation occurs, a subsequent decision by the trial court on the merits . . . can have no effect on the dumping duties assessed. . . ."). Here, plaintiff opened up its pre-January 2, 2006, entries to liquidation by withdrawing its request for an administrative review. If some or all of *1247 those entries are liquidated, plaintiff would lose its right to judicial review as to those entries, although other issues might remain to be litigated. Therefore, the court finds that plaintiff has demonstrated that as to any pre-January 2, 2006, entries that face liquidation, it will suffer irreparable harm absent a preliminary injunction. This factor, then, also favors granting plaintiff's motion.
III. Balance of Hardships
"In evaluating whether to grant a motion for injunctive relief, the court must `determine which party will suffer the greatest adverse effects as a result of the grant or denial of the preliminary injunction.'" Nat'l Fisheries Inst., Inc. v. U.S. Bureau of Customs & Border Protection, 30 CIT ___, ___, 465 F.Supp.2d 1300, 1329 (2006) (quoting Ugine-Savoie Imphy v. United States, 24 CIT 1246, 1250, 121 F.Supp.2d 684, 688 (2000)).
Plaintiff contends that the balance of hardships leans in its favor because only an injunction can "preserve fully the CWB's statutory right to challenge the failure of Commerce to act in accordance with law." Pl.'s Mem. 13. For plaintiff, this outweighs any harm the United States might endure because the government "already holds the CWB's antidumping and countervailing duty cash deposits for the relevant entr[ies], which ensures that its rights are fully protected." Pl.'s Mem. 13-14 (citing Böhler-Uddeholm Corp. v. United States, 23 CIT 801, 803, 1999 WL 1001191 (1999) (not reported in the Federal Supplement)) (internal quotation marks omitted).
For its part, the Department states that "the balance of hardships . . . counsel[s] against issuance of an injunction concerning a question that could have been before the international body that is charged with making the same findings that plaintiff[] [is] asking the Court to make." Def.'s Opp'n 19. In other words, the Department relies on its jurisdictional arguments to support its assertion that the balance of hardships leans in its favor.
The court finds that defendant will suffer comparably less harm as the result of an injunction than would plaintiff in the absence of equitable relief. Here, the United States currently holds plaintiffs cash deposits. Therefore, "at most, the decision to grant an injunction . . . will only delay liquidation." Fundicao Tupy S.A. v. United States, 11 CIT 635, 638, 671 F.Supp. 27, 30 (1987). Plaintiff, on the other hand, risks losing a portion of its deposits. Thus, the court concludes that the balance of hardships weighs in favor of granting plaintiff's motion.
IV. Public Interest
The final part of the four-part test requires the movant to demonstrate that the public interest would be better served by the issuance of an injunction. Plaintiff contends that this part favors granting its motion because "the public interest is best served by ensuring that duties are assessed under the trade statutes in accordance with law." Pl.'s Mem. 14. That is, because it maintains that Commerce acted unlawfully by limiting the effect of the Notice of Revocation to those entries made on or after January 2, 2006, plaintiff argues that final judicial resolution of the legality of Commerce's application of the unfair trade statute would, no matter the outcome, assure the public that Commerce was or would ultimately be complying with the law.
The Department urges that "the integrity of the NAFTA binational panel process and the public policy inherent in Congress'[s] clear separation between binational panels and the courts would suffer, both to the detriment of the Executive *1248 Branch and to public policy in general" were the injunction to be issued. Def.'s Opp'n 19-20.
"[T]he public interest is served by ensuring that [Commerce] complies with the law, and interprets and applies [the] international trade statutes uniformly and fairly." Ugine-Savoie Imphy, 24 CIT at 1252, 121 F.Supp.2d at 690 (internal quotation marks & citations omitted) (third alteration in original). Plaintiffs complaint raises an important question concerning whether Commerce complied with the law when it issued the Notice of Revocation. Thus, because of the public's interest in ensuring that duties are assessed in accordance with law, this factor also favors granting plaintiffs motion.

CONCLUSION
Based on the foregoing, the court finds that plaintiff has demonstrated its entitlement to injunctive relief. Therefore, it is hereby
ORDERED that plaintiffs motion for a preliminary injunction is granted; and it is further
ORDERED that the parties consult and jointly submit to the court the form of the preliminary injunction on or before May 7, 2007. The parties' submission shall be made to Casey Arm Cheevers, Case Manager, United States Court of International Trade, One Federal Plaza, New York, New York, 10278.
NOTES
[1]  Pursuant to this Court's entry of a temporary restraining order on February 28, 2007, and the subsequent extension of that order for 60 days on March 14, 2007, plaintiff's merchandise is not presently at risk of being liquidated. See Can. Wheat Bd. v. United States, Ct. No. 07-00058 (CIT Feb. 28, 2007) (order granting plaintiff's motion for TRO) (Ridgway, J.); Can. Wheat Bd. v. United States, Ct. No. 07-00058 (CIT Mar. 14, 2007) (order extending TRO for 60 days) (Eaton, J.).
[2]  The Tembec III Court vacated as moot its prior judgment in Tembec II, but, having found "that the issues in Tembec II were decided within the context of a live controversy," kept the Tembec II decision in place. Tembec III, 31 CIT at ___, 475 F.Supp.2d at 1402.
[3]  Section 1581(i)(4) grants this Court exclusive jurisdiction to entertain "any civil action commenced against the United States, its agencies, or its officers, that arises out of any law of the United States providing for . . . (4) administration and enforcement with respect to the matters referred to in paragraphs (1)(3) of this subsection and subsections (a)-(h) of this section." 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i)(4).
[4]  In Timken Co. v. United States, 893 F.2d 337, 340 (Fed.Cir.1990), the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit held that 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(c)(1) required Commerce to "publish notice of a . . . decision not in harmony [with the original determination] within 10 days of the issuance of the decision. . . ." This requirement is equally applicable to NAFTA panel decisions not in harmony with the original challenged determination. See 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(g)(5)(B). Thus, even though the Timken Notice was published later than 10 days after the NAFTA panel decision, it obtained legal effect on January 2, 2006, the last day the notice could lawfully `be published.
[5]  According to Customs's fiscal year 2004 annual report, as of October 1, 2004, $176,171.37 in cash deposits had been paid on entries of Canadian HRS wheat. See http://www.cbp.gov/linkhandl er/cgov/import/add_cvd/cont_d ump/cdsoa_04/fy2004_annual/clearing_account.ctt/clearing_account.pdf (last visited April 24, 2007). This amount includes any cash deposits paid by the CWB on its September 2004 entries.
[6]  Congress granted the Court "exclusive jurisdiction of any civil action commenced under [19 U.S.C. § 1516a]." 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c).
[7]  The dispute centers on whether the Notice of Revocation falls within the terms of 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(B)(i), which provides for judicial review of:

[f]inal affirmative determinations by the administrating authority and by the Commission under section 1671d [final determinations regarding countervailable subsidies] or 1673d [final determinations regarding sales at less than fair value] of this title, including any negative part of such a determination (other than a part referred to in clause (ii)).
[8]  As support for its position, Commerce relies on the Federal Circuit's decision in Freeport Minerals Co. v. United States, 758 F.2d 629 (Fed.Cir.1985). The court finds this reliance misplaced. The controversy here involves a legal conclusion found in the Notice of Revocation. Freeport Minerals involved a challenge to a final determination made on remand. Such final determinations are indeed reviewable under 19 U.S.C. § 1516a. As in Tembec, Inc. v. United States, 30 CIT ___, ___, 441 F.Supp.2d 1302, 1316 n. 19 (2006) ("Tembec I"), defendant misstates the "matter" to be reviewed. Here, the matter is the validity of the administration and enforcement of a final determination, not the validity of the final determination itself. See Tembec I, 30 CIT at ___, 441 F.Supp.2d at 1318 ("Plaintiffs have brought a challenge to the administration and enforcement of a determination, not to the validity of the determination itself. Consequently, the availability of a remedy under § 1581(c) as to the underlying determination does not bar suit under § 1581(i)."). Thus, the teaching of Freeport Minerals does not apply.
[9]  Pursuant to 19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(A):

Within thirty days after 
(i) the date of publication in the Federal Register of . . .
(II) an antidumping or countervailing duty order based upon any determination described in clause (i) of subparagraph
(B) . . .
an interested party who is a party to the proceeding in connection with which the matter arises may commence an action in the United States Court of International Trade by filing a summons, and within thirty days thereafter a complaint, each with the content and in the form, manner, and style prescribed by the rules of that court, contesting any factual findings or legal conclusions upon which the determination is based.
19 U.S.C. § 1516a(a)(2)(A).
[10]  In support of its contention that the Tembec I rationale with respect to jurisdiction no longer applies, Commerce cites the Federal Circuit's recent decision in International Custom Products, Inc. v. United States, 467 F.3d 1324 (Fed.Cir.2006) ("ICP"). In Commerce's view, the Tembec I Court incorrectly focused on the nature of plaintiffs' claims instead of examining the remedies available under the other subsections of section 1581. Here, Commerce maintains that the Federal Circuit's holding in ICP precludes the exercise of jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i) because "[r]elief was `otherwise available,' but [plaintiff] simply elected not to pursue such relief." Def.'s Opp'n 8. Commerce further asserts that in this case, when determining the propriety of exercising jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(i), the Court must, in accordance with ICP, "focus upon the remedies available and upon the fact that CWB could have received the same remedy it seeks here, had it originally challenged the ITC's 2003 injury determination," in this Court. Def.'s Opp'n 10.

The court finds nothing in ICP requiring it to abandon the reasoning in Tembec I that a party's decision to challenge the substance of a final determination before a NAFTA panel does not preclude it from contesting the administration and enforcement of that final determination in this Court. Indeed, as has been previously noted, the CWB's challenge is to a legal conclusion found in a notice of revocation, which is not a final determination within the meaning of 19 U.S.C. § 1516a. Thus, plaintiff had no avenue to relief under 28 U.S.C. § 1581(c).
