Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 137 / Monday, July 18, 2011 / Notices
Department determined that revocation
of the antidumping duty order on PTFE
resin from Italy would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and, therefore, notified the ITC of the
magnitude of the margins likely to
prevail should the order be revoked. See
Granular Polytetrafluoroethylene Resin
From Italy: Final Results of Expedited
Sunset Review of the Antidumping Duty
Order, 76 FR 12939 (March 9, 2011).
On July 7, 2011, the ITC published its
determination in the Federal Register,
pursuant to section 751(c)(1) of the Act,
that revocation of the antidumping duty
order on PTFE resin from Italy would
likely lead to a continuation or
recurrence of material injury to an
industry in the United States within a
reasonably foreseeable time. See
Granular Polytetrafluoroethylene Resin
From Italy, 76 FR 39896 (July 7, 2011),
and USITC Publication 4240 (June
2011), Granular Polytetrafluoroethylene

Scope of the Order
The product covered by the order is
PTFE resin, filled or unfilled. The order

See Granular Polytetrafluoroethylene
Resin From Italy; Final Affirmative
Determination of Circumvention of
Antidumping Duty Order, 58 FR 26100
(April 30, 1993). The order excludes
PTFE dispersions in water and fine

this review, such merchandise was

Schedule of the United States

Continuation of the Order
As a result of the determinations by
the Department and the ITC that
revocation of the antidumping duty
order would likely lead to a
continuation or recurrence of dumping
and material injury to an industry in the
United States, pursuant to section
751(d)(2) of the Act, the Department
hereby orders the continuation of the
antidumping order on PTFE resin from
Italy. U.S. Customs and Border
Protection will continue to collect
antidumping duty cash deposits at the
rates in effect at the time of entry for all
imports of subject merchandise. The
effective date of the continuation of the
order will be the date of publication in
the Federal Register of this notice of
continuation. Pursuant to sections
