Background

    On December 1, 2004, the Commission determined that responses to 
its notice of institution of the subject five-year reviews were such 
that full reviews pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of the Act should 
proceed (69 FR 69954, December 1, 2004). Notice of the scheduling of 
the Commission's reviews and of a public hearing 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 on 
May 4, 2005 (70 FR 24613). The hearing was held in Washington, DC, on 
October 25, 2005, and all persons who requested the opportunity were 
permitted to appear in person or by counsel.
    The Commission transmitted its determinations in these reviews to 
the Secretary of Commerce on December 13, 2005. The views of the 
Commission are contained in USITC Publication 3823 (December 2005), 
entitled Granular Polytetrafluoroethylene Resin from Italy and Japan: 
Investigation Nos. 731-TA-385 and 386 (Second Review).

    Issued: December 2, 2005.

    By order of the Commission.
Marilyn R. Abbott,
Secretary to the Commission.
