SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background.--On March 8, 2010, the 
Commission determined that it should proceed to a full review in the 
subject five-year review pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of the Act (75

interested party group response to its notice of institution (74 FR 
62817, December 1, 2009) was adequate and that the respondent 
interested party group response was inadequate.\11\ The Commission also 
found that other circumstances warranted conducting a full review. A 
record of the Commissioners' votes, the Commission's statement on 
adequacy, and any individual Commissioner's statements are available 
from the Office of the Secretary and at the Commission's Web site.
