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 U.S. Trade
Representative, as delegated by the
President, has 60 days to approve or
disapprove the Commission’s action.
See Presidential Memorandum of July
21, 2005. 70 FR 43251 (July 26, 2005).
During this period, the subject articles
would be entitled to enter the United
States under bond, in an amount
determined by the Commission. The
Commission is therefore interested in
receiving submissions concerning the
amount of the bond that should be
imposed.
Written Submissions: Parties to the
investigation, interested government
agencies, and any other interested
parties are encouraged to file written
submissions on the issues of remedy,
the public interest, and bonding. Such
submissions should address the
recommended determination by the ALJ
on remedy and bonding. Complainant
and the Commission investigative
attorney are also requested to submit
proposed remedial orders for the
Commission’s consideration.
Complainant is further requested to
provide the expiration date of the ’748
patent and state the HTSUS numbers
under which the accused articles are
imported. The written submissions and
proposed remedial orders must be filed
no later than the close of business on
August 4, 2011. Reply submissions must
be filed no later than the close of
business on August 12, 2011. No further
submissions on these issues will be
permitted unless otherwise ordered by
the Commission.
Persons filing written submissions
must file the original document and 12
true copies thereof on or before the
deadlines stated above with the Office
of the Secretary. 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
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 223001
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 section 201.6 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure, 19 CFR 201.6. Documents for
which confidential treatment by the
Commission is sought will be treated
accordingly. All nonconfidential written
submissions will be available for public
inspection at the Office of the Secretary.
The authority for this action is
contained in section 337 of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C.
1337), and in sections 210.42–.46 and
.50 of the Commission’s Rules of
Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.42–

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
Notice of Lodging of Joint Stipulation
Under the Clean Air Act
Notice is hereby given that on July 25,
2011, a proposed Joint Stipulation to
Modify the Sixth Amendment to the
Consent Decree entered in United States
v. BP Exploration and Oil Co., et al.,
(Civil No. 2:96 CV 095 RL) (‘‘Joint
Stipulation’’), was lodged with the
United States District Court for the
Northern District of Indiana.
The Joint Stipulation modifies the
Supplemental Environmental Project
(referred to as the ‘‘Natural Gas
Conversion SEP’’) required as part of the
Sixth Amendment to the Consent
Decree. The Sixth Amendment to the
Consent Decree resolved the United
States’ civil claims against BP Products
North America Inc. (‘‘BP Products’’) for
alleged Clean Air Act (‘‘CAA’’)
violations at its petroleum refinery
located in Texas City, Texas (the ‘‘Texas
City Refinery’’). The Joint Stipulation
modifies the Natural Gas Conversion
SEP so that heavy-duty diesel vehicles
from third parties other than the City of
Texas City, Texas and the Texas City
Independent School District can now be
converted as part of the Natural Gas
Conversion SEP. The Joint Stipulation
also requires BP Products to convert two
additional heavy-duty diesel vehicles as
part of the Natural Gas Conversion SEP,
and eliminates the requirement to
convert light-duty gasoline vehicles.
Pursuant to the Sixth Amendment, BP
Products was required to spend at least
$6,000,000 on the Natural Gas
Conversion SEP. Pursuant to the Joint
Stipulation, BP Products will have to
spend at least $6,250,000 in completing
the modified SEP.
The Joint Stipulation also requires BP
Products to perform a ‘‘Handheld Air
Monitor SEP.’’ As part of this SEP, BP
Products will provide the Galveston
County Health District and the Texas
City Fire Department with handheld
ambient air monitors that are capable of
detecting volatile organic compounds
(VOCs), as well as other toxic and
combustible gases. BP Products is
required to spend at least $35,000 in
PO 00000

completing the Handheld Air Monitor
