ADMINISTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL

SAFEGUARDS: 

DHS/FEMA safeguards records in this 

system in accordance with applicable 

rules and policies, including all 

applicable DHS automated systems 

security and access policies. DHS/ 

FEMA imposes strict controls to 

minimize the risk of compromising the 

information that is being stored. DHS/ 

FEMA limits access to the computer 

system containing the records in this 

system to those individuals who have a 

need-to-know the information for the 

performance of their official duties and 

who have appropriate clearances or 

permissions. 

RECORD ACCESS PROCEDURES: 

Individuals seeking access to and 

notification of any record contained in 

this system of records, or seeking to 

contest its content, may submit a 

request in writing to the Chief Privacy 

Officer and FEMA’s Freedom of 

Information Act (FOIA) Officer whose 

contact information can be found at 

https://www.dhs.gov/foia-contactinformation. If an individual believes 

more than one component maintains 

Privacy Act records concerning him or 

her, the individual may submit the 

request to the Chief Privacy Officer and 

Chief Freedom of Information Act 

Officer, Department of Homeland 

Security, Washington, DC 20528–0655, 

or electronically at https://

www.dhs.gov/dhs-foia-privacy-actrequest-submission-form. Even if neither 

the Privacy Act nor the Judicial Redress 

Act provide a right of access, certain 

records about you may be available 

under the Freedom of Information Act. 

When an individual is seeking records 

about himself or herself from this 

system of records or any other 

Departmental system of records, the 

individual’s request must conform with 

the Privacy Act regulations set forth in 

6 CFR part 5. The individual must first 

verify his/her identity, meaning that the 

individual must provide his/her full 

name, current address, and date and 

place of birth. The individual must sign 

the request, and the individual’s 

signature must either be notarized or 

submitted under 28 U.S.C. 1746, a law 

that permits statements to be made 

under penalty of perjury as a substitute 

for notarization. An individual may 

obtain more information about this 

process at http://www.dhs.gov/foia. In 

addition, the individual should: 

• Explain why he or she believes the 

Department would have information 

being requested; 

• Identify which component(s) of the 

Department he or she believes may have 

the information; 

• Specify when the individual 

believes the records would have been 

created; and 

• Provide any other information that 

will help the FOIA staff determine 

which DHS component agency may 

have responsive records. 

If the request is seeking records 

pertaining to another living individual, 

the request must include an 

authorization from the individual whose 

record is being requested, authorizing 

the release to the requester. 

Without the above information, the 

component(s) may not be able to 

conduct an effective search, and the 

individual’s request may be denied due 

to lack of specificity or lack of 

compliance with applicable regulations. 

CONTESTING RECORD PROCEDURES: 

For records covered by the Privacy 

Act or covered Judicial Redress Act 

records, individuals may make a request 

for amendment or correction of a record 

of the Department about the individual 

by writing directly to the Department 

component that maintains the record, 

unless the record is not subject to 

amendment or correction. The request 

should identify each particular record in 

question, state the amendment or 

correction desired, and state why the 

individual believes that the record is not 

accurate, relevant, timely, or complete. 

The individual may submit any 

documentation that would be helpful. If 

the individual believes that the same 

record is in more than one system of 

records, the request should state that 

and be addressed to each component 

that maintains a system of records 

containing the record. 

NOTIFICATION PROCEDURES: 

See ‘‘Record Access Procedures’’ 

above. 

EXEMPTIONS PROMULGATED FOR THE SYSTEM: 

None.

COMMISSION 

[Investigation Nos. 701–TA–670 and 731– 

TA–1570 (Final)] 

Freight Rail Coupler Systems and 

Components From China 

Determinations 

On the basis of the record 1 developed 

in the subject investigations, the United 

States International Trade Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) determines, pursuant 

to the Tariff Act of 1930 (‘‘the Act’’), 

that an industry in the United States is 

not materially injured or threatened 

with material injury by reason of 

imports of freight rail coupler systems 

and components from China, provided 

for in subheading 8607.30.10 2 of the 

Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the 

United States, that have been found by 

the U.S. Department of Commerce 

(‘‘Commerce’’) to be sold in the United 

States at less than fair value (‘‘LTFV’’), 

and to be subsidized by the government 

of China.3

Background 

The Commission instituted these 

investigations effective September 29, 

2021, following receipt of petitions filed 

with the Commission and Commerce by 

the Coalition of Freight Coupler 

Producers consisting of McConway & 

Torley LLC (‘‘M&T’’), Pittsburgh, PA,

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 131 / Monday, July 11, 2022 / Notices 41145 

4 Initially, Petitioner was M&T and another 

domestic producer. However, the other domestic 

producer withdrew, and USW was added to the 

petitions. 

and the United Steel, Paper and 

Forestry, Rubber, Manufacturing, 

Energy, Allied Industrial and Service 

Workers International Union, AFLCIO, 

CLC (‘‘USW’’).4 The final phase of the 

investigations was scheduled by the 

Commission following notification of 

preliminary determinations by 

Commerce that imports of freight rail 

coupler systems and components from 

China were subsidized within the 

meaning of section 703(b) of the Act (19 

U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and sold at LTFV 

within the meaning of 733(b) of the Act 

(19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the 

scheduling of the final phase of the 

Commission’s investigations and of a 

public hearing to be held in connection 

therewith was given by posting copies 

of the notice in the Office of the 

Secretary, U.S. International Trade 

Commission, Washington, DC, and by 

publishing the notice in the Federal 

Register on March 8, 2022 (87 FR 

14037). The Commission conducted its 

hearing on May 12, 2022. All persons 

who requested the opportunity were 

permitted to participate. 

The Commission made these 

determinations pursuant to §§ 705(b) 

and 735(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 

1671d(b) and 19 U.S.C. 1673d(b)). It 

completed and filed its determinations 

in these investigations on July 5, 2022.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Commission instituted this investigation 

on June 14, 2016, based on a complaint 

filed by complainants Ajinomoto Co., 

Inc. of Tokyo, Japan and Ajinomoto 

Heartland Inc. of Chicago, Illinois 

(collectively, ‘‘Ajinomoto’’). See 81 FR 

38735–36 (June 14, 2016). The 

complaint, as supplemented, alleged 

violations of section 337 of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 

1337) (‘‘section 337’’), based upon the 

importation into the United States, the 

sale for importation, and the sale within 

the United States after importation of 

certain L-tryptophan, L-tryptophan 

products, and their methods of 

production by reason of infringement of 

certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 

7,666,655 (‘‘the ’655 patent’’) and U.S. 

Patent No. 6,180,373 (‘‘the ’373 patent’’). 

See id. The notice of investigation 

named CJ CheilJedang Corp. of Seoul, 

Republic of Korea, CJ America, Inc. of 

Downers Grove, Illinois, and PT 

CheilJedang Indonesia of Jakarta, 

Indonesia (collectively, ‘‘CJ’’) as 

respondents in this investigation. See 

id. The Office of Unfair Import 

Investigations was not a party to the 

investigation. 

On December 18, 2017, the 

Commission issued a final 

determination finding a violation of 

section 337 with respect to certain 

tryptophan-producing bacteria strains 

(‘‘the later strains’’), but no violation of 

section 337 with respect to other strains 

(‘‘the earlier strains’’). The Commission 

issued the remedial orders, i.e., an LEO 

against the infringing articles and a CDO 

against CJ America. 

On February 16, 2018, Ajinomoto 

filed an appeal with the United States 

Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit 

(‘‘Federal Circuit’’) from the 

Commission’s final determination 

finding no violation of section 337 with 

respect to the earlier strains. On 

February 27, 2018, CJ also filed an 

appeal with the Federal Circuit from the 

Commission’s final determination 

finding a violation of section 337 with 

respect to the later strains. 

On May 25, 2018, CJ filed a motion for 

partial dismissal of the appeal with 

respect to the ’373 patent based on 

expiration of that patent. On June 27, 

2018, the Federal Circuit issued an 

order dismissing the appeal with respect 

to the ’373 patent. On August 6, 2019, 

the Federal Circuit affirmed the 

Commission’s final determination with 

respect to the remaining ’655 patent. 

On June 3, 2022, Ajinomoto and CJ 

filed a joint petition to rescind the 

remedial orders based on settlement. 

The petition includes a confidential and 

public version of the settlement 

agreement and indicates that there are 

no other agreements, written or oral, 

express or implied between the parties 

concerning the subject matter of the 

investigation. No response to the 

petition was filed. 

Having reviewed the petition and the 

settlement agreement between 

Ajinomoto and CJ provided therewith, 

the Commission finds that the 

conditions which led to the issuance of 

the remedial orders no longer exist, and 

therefore, granting the joint petition to 

rescind is warranted under section 

337(k) (19 U.S.C. 1337(k)). The 

Commission also finds that the 

requirements of Commission Rule 

210.76(a) (19 CFR 210.76(a)) are 

satisfied. Accordingly, the Commission 

has determined to institute a rescission 

proceeding and to grant the joint 

petition to rescind the remedial orders. 

The rescission proceeding is terminated. 

The Commission vote for this 

determination took place on July 5, 

2022. 

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.
