Commission Opinion, In the Matter of

Certain Devices for Connecting

Computers via Telephone Lines, Inv.

No. 337–TA–360.

If the Commission contemplates some

form of remedy, it must consider the

effects of that remedy upon the public

interest. The factors the Commission

will consider include the effect that an

exclusion order and/or cease and desist

orders would have on (1) the public

health and welfare, (2) competitive

conditions in the U.S. economy, (3) U.S.

production of articles that are like or

directly competitive with those that are

subject to investigation, and (4) U.S.

consumers. The Commission is

therefore interested in receiving written

submissions that address the

aforementioned public interest factors

in the context of this investigation.

If the Commission orders some form

of remedy, the President has 60 days to

approve or disapprove the

Commission’s action. During this

period, the subject articles would be

entitled to enter the United States under

a bond, in an amount to be determined

by the Commission and prescribed by

the Secretary of the Treasury. The

Commission is therefore interested in

receiving submissions concerning the

amount of the bond that should be

imposed.

Written Submissions

The parties to the investigation are

requested to file written submissions on

the issues under review. The

submission should be concise and

thoroughly referenced to the record in

this investigation, including references

to exhibits and testimony. Additionally,

the parties to the investigation,

interested government agencies, and any

other interested persons are encouraged

to file written submissions on the issues

of remedy, the public interest, and

bonding. Such submissions should

address the ALJ’s December 13, 1999,

recommended determination on remedy

and bonding. Complainant and the

Commission investigative attorney are

also requested to submit proposed

remedial orders for the Commission’s

consideration. The written submissions

and proposed remedial orders must be

filed no later than the close of business

on February 15, 2000. Reply

submissions must be filed no later than

the close of business on February 22,

2000. No further submissions will be

permitted unless otherwise ordered by

the Commission.

Persons filing written submissions

must file with the Office of the Secretary

the original and 14 true copies thereof

on or before the deadlines stated above.

Any person desiring to submit a

document (or portion thereof) to the

Commission in confidence must request

confidential treatment unless the

information has already been granted

such treatment during the proceedings.

All such requests should be directed to

the Secretary of the Commission and

must include a full statement of the

reasons why the Commission should

grant such treatment. See 19 CFR 201.6.

Documents for which confidential

treatment is granted by the Commission

will be treated accordingly. All

nonconfidential written submissions

will be available for public inspection at

the Office of the Secretary.

This action is taken under the

authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act

of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337),

and in sections 210.42–.45 of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure (19 CFR 210.42–.45).

Copies of the public version of the

ALJ’s ID and all other nonconfidential

documents filed in connection with this

investigation are or will be available for

inspection during official business

hours (8:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.) in the

Office of the Secretary, U.S.

International Trade Commission, 500 E

Street, SW, Washington, DC 20436,

telephone 202–205–2000.

Issued: February 1, 2000.

By order of the Commission.

Secretary.
