After considering the written
submissions on review and the record in
this investigation, the Commission has
determined to affirm-in-part and
reverse-in-part the final ID of the ALJ
and to terminate the investigation with
a finding of violation of Section 337.
Specifically, the Commission has found
the following respondents in violation:
Precision Measurement International

Legend (Zhangjiagang) Chemical Co.,
Ltd. of Zhangjiagang City, China; Sino
Legend Holding Group, Inc. of Kowloon,

After considering the submissions of the
parties on remedy, the public interest,
and bonding, the Commission has
determined to issue a limited exclusion
order for a period of ten (10) years
prohibiting the unlicensed importation
of rubber resins made using any of the
SP–1068 Rubber Resin Trade Secrets
that are manufactured by, for, or on
behalf of violating respondents or any of
their affiliated companies, parents,
subsidiaries, licensees, contractors, or
other related business entities, or their
successors or assigns. The Commission
has determined that the public interest
factors of 19 U.S.C. 1337(d) do not
preclude the issuance of a remedy. The
Commission has further determined that
the covered products may be imported
during the period of Presidential review
pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1337(j) under
bond in the amount of 19% of entered

amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in part
210 of the Commission’s Rules of
Practice and Procedure (19 CFR part

Act
On January 10, 2014, the Department
of Justice lodged a proposed consent
decree with the United States District
Court for the District of Minnesota in
the lawsuit entitled United States v.
U.S. Borax Inc., Civil Action No. 0:14–

The proposed consent decree fully
resolves claims of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency
(‘‘EPA’’) against U.S. Borax Inc.
(‘‘Borax’’) for response costs, civil
penalties, and potential treble damages
under the Comprehensive
Environmental Response,
Compensation, and Liability Act
(‘‘CERCLA’’), 42 U.S.C. 9601–9675, with
respect to the South Minneapolis
Residential Soil Contamination
Superfund Site (‘‘Site) in Minneapolis,
Minnesota. A complaint, which was
filed at the same time that the United
States lodged the proposed consent
decree, alleges that Borax was an
operator of the Site during the period of
disposal of hazardous substances and,
as such, is liable for response costs
under Section107(a) of CERCLA, 42
U.S.C. 9607(a). Further, the complaint
alleges that Borax is liable for civil
penalties and damages under Sections
106(b) and 107(c)(3) of CERCLA, 32
U.S.C. 9606(b), 9607(c)(3), because it
failed to comply with a unilateral
administrative order issued by EPA to
undertake response actions at the Site.
Under the proposed consent decree,
Borax shall make a lump sum payment
of $1,225,000 to EPA as reimbursement
of response costs, and it shall make a
lump sum payment of $25,000 for civil
penalties and damages. Both payments
shall be made to the United States
within 30 days of entry of the Consent
Decree.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
proposed consent decree. Comments
