Background

    On May 2, 2003, a petition was filed with the Commission and 
Commerce by Five Rivers Electronic Innovations, LLC, Greeneville, TN, 
the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (``IBEW''), 
Washington, DC, and the IUE-CWA, the Industrial Division of the 
Communications Workers of America, Washington, DC, alleging that an 
industry in the United States is materially injured and threatened with 
further material injury by reason of LTFV imports of certain color 
television receivers from China and Malaysia. Accordingly, effective 
May 2, 2003, the Commission instituted antidumping duty investigations 
Nos. 731-TA-1034 and 1035 (Preliminary).
    Notice of the institution of the Commission's investigations and of 
a public conference to be held in connection therewith was given by 
posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 
International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the 
notice in the Federal Register of May 13, 2003 (68 FR 25627). The 
conference was held in Washington, DC, on May 23, 2003, and all persons 
who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in person or by 
counsel.
    The Commission transmitted its determinations in these 
investigations to the Secretary of Commerce on June 16, 2003. The views 
of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 3607 (June 2003), 
entitled Certain Color Television Receivers from China and Malaysia:
