10072 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 43 / Wednesday, March 5, 1997 / Notices

On December 23, 1996, the parties to

the investigation, pursuant to

Commission rule 210.21(a)(1) and (b)(1),

filed a joint motion to terminate the

investigation as to all issues based upon

a settlement agreement. On January 30,

1997, the presiding ALJ granted the joint

motion and issued his ID (Order No. 10)

terminating the investigation on the

basis of the settlement agreement. The

ALJ found that there is no indication

that termination of the investigation

would have an adverse impact on the

public interest and that termination

based on settlement is generally in the

public interest. No petitions for review

were filed.

This action is taken under the

authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act

of 1930, 19 U.S.C. 1337, and

Commission rule 210.42, 19 CFR 210.42.

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
