Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 210 / Wednesday, November 1, 2023 / Notices 75033 

directed to certain wearable electronic 

devices with light-based pulse oximetry 

functionality and components thereof 

that are imported, sold for importation, 

and/or sold after importation by Apple; 

and a CDO directed to Apple. RD at 2, 

5. The RD additionally recommended 

that the Commission set a zero percent 

(0%) bond (i.e., no bond) during the 

sixty-day period of Presidential review. 

Id. at 6. In its notice instituting this 

investigation, the Commission did not 

instruct the ALJ to make findings and 

recommendations concerning the public 

interest. See 86 FR at 46275–76. 

On January 23, 2023, Complainants 

and Apple each filed a petition for 

review. On January 31, 2023, 

Complainants and Apple each filed 

responses to the other party’s petitions. 

On February 23, 2023, the parties 

filed their public interest statements 

pursuant to 19 CFR 210.50(a)(4). The 

Commission received numerous 

comments on the public interest from 

non-parties. 

On May 15, 2023, after considering 

the parties’ petitions and responses 

thereto, the Commission determined to 

review the Final ID in part. See 88 FR 

32243, 32243–46 (May 19, 2023). In 

particular, the Commission determined 

to review the following findings of the 

Final ID: 

(1) the domestic industry with regard 

to the ’501 patent, the ’502 patent, the 

’648 patent, and the ’745 patent; 

(2) obviousness with regard to the 

’501 patent, the ’502 patent, the ’648 

patent, and the ’745 patent; 

(3) written description with regard to 

claim 28 of the ’502 patent and claim 12 

of the ’648 patent; 

(4) claim construction and 

infringement with regard to the ’745 

patent; and 

(5) subject matter jurisdiction. 

Id. The Commission requested 

briefing on certain issues under review 

and on remedy, the public interest, and 

bonding. See id. 

On June 5, 2023, the parties filed their 

written submissions on the issues under 

review and on remedy, public interest, 

and bonding, and on June 12, 2023, the 

parties filed their reply submissions. 

The Commission also received 

numerous comments on the public 

interest from non-parties. 

Having reviewed the record in this 

investigation, including the written 

submissions of the parties, the 

Commission affirms with modifications 

the Final ID’s domestic industry 

findings (both economic and technical 

prong) as to the ’501, ’502, ’648, and 

’745 patents. The Commission 

additionally affirms with modifications 

the Final ID’s conclusion that the 

asserted claims of the ’501 patent are 

obvious, but the asserted claims of the 

’502, ’648, and ’745 patents are not 

obvious. The Commission has 

determined to reverse the Final ID’s 

finding that Apple proved by clear and 

convincing evidence that claim 28 of the 

’502 patent and claim 12 of the ’648 

patent are invalid for lack of written 

description. Furthermore, the 

Commission affirms the Final ID’s claim 

construction related to the recited term 

‘‘first shape’’ and the related conclusion 

that the Accused Products do not satisfy 

elements [1B] and [20B] of the ’745 

patent. The Commission additionally 

vacates the Final ID’s finding that the 

Commission has subject matter 

jurisdiction over the investigation and 

instead finds that the Commission has 

statutory authority over the 

investigation. The Commission affirms 

the remainder of the Final ID that is not 

inconsistent with the Commission’s 

opinion issued concurrently herewith. 

As a result, the Commission finds that 

Apple has violated section 337 as to 

claims 22 and 28 of the ’502 patent and 

claims 12, 24, and 30 of the ’648 patent. 

The Commission has determined that 

the appropriate form of relief is an LEO 

prohibiting (1) the unlicensed entry of 

infringing wearable electronic devices 

with light-based pulse oximetry 

functionality and components thereof 

manufactured by or on behalf of Apple 

or any of its affiliated companies, 

parents, subsidiaries, or other related 

business entities, or its successors or 

assigns. The Commission has also 

determined to issue a CDO against 

Apple. The Commission has determined 

to include an exemption to the remedial 

orders for service or repair or, under 

warranty terms, replacement of products 

purchased prior to the end of the period 

of Presidential review. 

The Commission has further 

determined that the public interest 

factors enumerated in subsections (d)(l) 

and (f)(1) (19 U.S.C. 1337(d)(l), (f)(1)) do 

not preclude issuance of the abovereferenced remedial orders. 

Additionally, the Commission has 

determined to impose a bond of zero 

(0%) (i.e., no bond) of entered value of 

the covered products during the period 

of Presidential review (19 U.S.C. 

1337(j)). This investigation is 

terminated. 

The Commission vote for this 

determination took place on October 26, 

2023. 

The authority for the Commission’s 

determination is contained in section 

337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as 

amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in part 

210 of the Commission’s Rules of 

Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part 

210). 

By order of the Commission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.—On September 7, 2001, 

the Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Commerce’’) issued antidumping duty 


ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1
75034 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 210 / Wednesday, November 1, 2023 / Notices 

orders on imports of steel concrete 

reinforcing bar from Belarus, China, 

Indonesia, Latvia, Moldova, Poland, and 

Ukraine (66 FR 46777). Commerce 

issued a continuation of the 

antidumping duty orders on imports of 

steel concrete reinforcing bar from 

Belarus, China, Indonesia, Latvia, 

Moldova, Poland, and Ukraine 

following Commerce’s and the 

Commission’s first five-year reviews, 

effective August 9, 2007 (72 FR 44830), 

second five-year reviews, effective July 

22, 2013 (78 FR 43858), and third fiveyear reviews, effective December 17, 

2018 (83 FR 64530). The Commission is 

now conducting fourth reviews 

pursuant to section 751(c) of the Act, as 

amended (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)), to 

determine whether revocation of the 

orders would be likely to lead to 

continuation or recurrence of material 

injury to the domestic industry within 

a reasonably foreseeable time. 

Provisions concerning the conduct of 

this proceeding may be found in the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure at 19 CFR part 201, subparts 

A and B, and 19 CFR part 207, subparts 

A and F. The Commission will assess 

the adequacy of interested party 

responses to this notice of institution to 

determine whether to conduct full or 

expedited reviews. The Commission’s 

determinations in any expedited 

reviews will be based on the facts 

available, which may include 

information provided in response to this 

notice. 

Definitions.—The following 

definitions apply to these reviews: 

(1) Subject Merchandise is the class or 

kind of merchandise that is within the 

scope of the five-year reviews, as 

defined by Commerce. 

(2) The Subject Countries in these 

reviews are Belarus, China, Indonesia, 

Latvia, Moldova, Poland, and Ukraine. 

(3) The Domestic Like Product is the 

domestically produced product or 

products which are like, or in the 

absence of like, most similar in 

characteristics and uses with, the 

Subject Merchandise. In its original 

determinations, its full first and second 

five-year reviews, and its expedited 

third five-year reviews, the Commission 

defined the Domestic Like Product as 

steel concrete reinforcing bar, 

coextensive with Commerce’s scope. 

(4) The Domestic Industry is the U.S. 

producers as a whole of the Domestic 

Like Product, or those producers whose 

collective output of the Domestic Like 

Product constitutes a major proportion 

of the total domestic production of the 

product. In its original determinations, 

three Commissioners based their 

material injury analysis on a national 

industry consisting of all producers of 

steel concrete reinforcing bar and three 

Commissioners found a regional 

industry consisting of all domestic 

production facilities producing the 

Domestic Like Product in the region 

consisting of the 30 contiguous states 

from New England to Texas and from 

the Gulf of Mexico north on both sides 

of the Mississippi up to the Canadian 

border, plus the District of Columbia 

and Puerto Rico. In its full first five-year 

review determinations, the Commission 

found that appropriate circumstances 

did not exist to conduct a regional 

industry analysis and defined the 

Domestic Industry to consist of all 

domestic producers of steel concrete 

reinforcing bar. In its full second fiveyear review determinations and its 

expedited third five-year review 

determinations, the Commission 

defined the Domestic Industry to 

include all domestic producers of steel 

concrete reinforcing bar. For purposes of 

this notice, you should report Domestic 

Industry information based on the 

Commission’s three most recent 

determinations defining the Domestic 

Industry to consist of all domestic 

producers of steel concrete reinforcing 

bar. 

(5) An Importer is any person or firm 

engaged, either directly or through a 

parent company or subsidiary, in 

importing the Subject Merchandise into 

the United States from a foreign 

manufacturer or through its selling 

agent. 

Participation in the proceeding and 

public service list.—Persons, including 

industrial users of the Subject 

Merchandise and, if the merchandise is 

sold at the retail level, representative 

consumer organizations, wishing to 

participate in the proceeding as parties 

must file an entry of appearance with 

the Secretary to the Commission, as 

provided in § 201.11(b)(4) of the 

Commission’s rules, no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. The Secretary will 

maintain a public service list containing 

the names and addresses of all persons, 

or their representatives, who are parties 

to the proceeding. 

Former Commission employees who 

are seeking to appear in Commission 

five-year reviews are advised that they 

may appear in a review even if they 

participated personally and 

substantially in the corresponding 

underlying original investigation or an 

earlier review of the same underlying 

investigation. The Commission’s 

designated agency ethics official has 

advised that a five-year review is not the 

same particular matter as the underlying 

original investigation, and a five-year 

review is not the same particular matter 

as an earlier review of the same 

underlying investigation for purposes of 

18 U.S.C. 207, the post-employment 

statute for Federal employees, and 

Commission rule 201.15(b) (19 CFR 

201.15(b)), 79 FR 3246 (Jan. 17, 2014), 

73 FR 24609 (May 5, 2008). 

Consequently, former employees are not 

required to seek Commission approval 

to appear in a review under Commission 

rule 19 CFR 201.15, even if the 

corresponding underlying original 

investigation or an earlier review of the 

same underlying investigation was 

pending when they were Commission 

employees. For further ethics advice on 

this matter, contact Charles Smith, 

Office of the General Counsel, at 202– 

205–3408. 

Limited disclosure of business 

proprietary information (BPI) under an 

administrative protective order (APO) 

and APO service list.—Pursuant to 

§ 207.7(a) of the Commission’s rules, the 

Secretary will make BPI submitted in 

this proceeding available to authorized 

applicants under the APO issued in the 

proceeding, provided that the 

application is made no later than 21 

days after publication of this notice in 

the Federal Register. Authorized 

applicants must represent interested 

parties, as defined in 19 U.S.C. 1677(9), 

who are parties to the proceeding. A 

separate service list will be maintained 

by the Secretary for those parties 

authorized to receive BPI under the 

APO.
