Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 177 / Thursday, September 14, 2017 / Notices
Jersey. The State of New Jersey has a
long history of selling portions of its
riparian lands at fair market value, to
appropriate users, in the form of
‘‘riparian grants.’’ The National Park
Service bought a riparian grant from
New Jersey in 1904 to legitimize its
expansion of Ellis Island, but even
though New Jersey sought from the
1930s to the 1950s to reach agreement
with the Federal government to convey
title for the filled portions of Liberty
Island, no agreement, and therefore no
such transfer, was effected. No Federal
purchase of the land has subsequently
been completed. The Federal
government has continued to use the
property without obtaining a riparian
grant. That situation has not changed.
As a result, the State of New Jersey’s
ownership interest in the land
artificially filled after 1834 was not
extinguished and still remains in effect.
In addition, the further statement that
‘‘the land mass [of Liberty Island] is
considered part of New York County,
New York.’’ (Section 7, page 6) should
also be revised. Only the portion of
Liberty Island that reflects the island as
it existed in 1834 lies within New York
County, New York. In our previous
comments on the earlier draft, we
provided a map that delineated the area
the island’s fill, showing that New
Jersey’s territory comprises
approximately 3.4 acres of the island’s
14.1 acres. (see attachment)
New Jersey disagrees with the
wording of footnote #5 (Section 7, page
6), which has a tendentious effect. The
National Park Service has every
reasonable basis to conclude, as New
Jersey holds, that Liberty Island is
situated in both states, and does not
need to claim in this footnote that it is
not pronouncing upon an issue that
Section 2 of the document clearly does.
Your letter cites the 1998 Supreme
Court decision in New Jersey v. New
York, decided in New Jersey’s favor (a
point not mentioned in footnote #5), in
which it was held that the portion of
Ellis Island composed of landfill
emplaced subsequent to the Compact of
1834 has remained in the territory of
New Jersey since the time of that
compact. With respect to the
neighboring Liberty Island, the factual
circumstances are nearly identical and
the same legal reasoning applies that
formed the basis of the Ellis Island
decision. As a result, the National Park
Service should recognize New Jersey
sovereignty over the western portion of
the island.
Keeper’s response to NJ SHPO
Comment 2 (Concerning Section 7, page
6): The Keeper disagrees with the NJ
SHPO’s contention that, ‘‘The National
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:41 Sep 13, 2017
Jkt 241001
Park Service has every reasonable basis
to conclude, as New Jersey holds, that
Liberty Island is situated in both states
. . .’’ The Keeper agrees with the NPS
assertion that boundary issues between
states are matters of original jurisdiction
with the U.S. Supreme Court, and that
neither the Keeper nor the National Park
Service are fitted by expertise or
authority to pronounce upon them.
Since the issue regarding jurisdiction
that was raised by the NJ SHPO cannot
be resolved within the context of this
nomination, the Keeper has determined
that the most appropriate course of
action is to ensure that, as approved by
the Keeper, the paragraph under
‘‘Setting’’ on page 7–6 reads:
Liberty Island is located within New York
Harbor, one of the world’s busiest shipping
ports. It is accessed by ferries that run
regularly from landings at Liberty State Park
in Jersey City, New Jersey, and Battery Park
at the southern tip of Manhattan, New York
City. The island is manifestly flat, with an
average elevation of about 15 feet (ft) above
sea level. The landform is approximately a
quarter-mile long and about .15-mile wide at
its widest point. Two significant filling
events, conducted on the west side of the
island by the US Army during the First
World War and on the northwestern end of
the island by the National Park Service in the
early 1950s, accreted the island to its current
14.1-acre form. Liberty Island is surrounded
by New Jersey state waters. The Statue in its
entirety was constructed and remains within
the territorial jurisdiction of the State of New
York. The entire island is administered by
the National Park Service. The Statue of
Liberty is located on the southern portion of
Liberty Island and is immediately
surrounded on the east, west, and south sides
by grass lawns. Visitors arrive at the island’s
West Pier after a ferry trip from Manhattan
or Jersey City and usually walk to the Statue
on the island’s primary circulation system, a
wide paved system of malls and plazas that
conveys visitors to the main entrance to the
Statue. The malls and plazas are lined with
linden trees and yew hedges that give the
setting a park-like feel. A secondary
circulation system consisting of interior
paths and a perimeter promenade offers other
views of the Statue and New York Harbor
from a variety of vantage points. Operational
facilities such as maintenance buildings and
staff housing are located primarily in the
northwest corner of the island and are
screened from public view in most
directions. (**NOTE: footnote #5 referenced in
the NJ SHPOs comments regarding the above
paragraph has been corrected to read as
footnote #6 in the final nomination
document.)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Commission instituted this investigation
on May 8, 2017, based on a complaint
filed by Electric Mirror, LLC of Everett,
Washington (‘‘Electric Mirror’’) and
Kelvin 42 LLC of Pensacola, Florida
SUMMARY:

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 177 / Thursday, September 14, 2017 / Notices
(‘‘Kelvin’’). 82 FR 21405 (May 8, 2017).
The complaint, as amended, alleges
violations of section 337 of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C.
1337, in the importation into the United
States, the sale for importation, and the
sale within the United States after
importation of certain mirrors with
internal illumination and components
thereof by reason of infringement of
certain claims of U.S. Patent Nos.
7,853,414 (‘‘the ’414 patent’’) and
7,559,668 (‘‘the ’668 patent’’). The
notice of investigation named as
respondents Lumidesign Inc. of Ontario,
Canada (‘‘Lumidesign’’); Majestic
Mirrors & Frame, LLC of Miami, Florida
(‘‘Majestic’’); and Project Light, LLC (d/
b/a Project Light, Inc., Prospetto Light,
LLC, and/or Prospetto Lighting, LLC) of
Stow, Ohio (‘‘Project Light’’). The Office
of Unfair Import Investigations was not
named as a party to the investigation.
The Commission previously
terminated the investigation in part
based on withdrawal of allegations
concerning complainant Kelvin,
respondent Majestic, and the ’668
patent. Order No. 6 (June 19, 2017), not
reviewed Notice (July 10, 2017). The
Commission also previously terminated
the investigation with respect to
respondent Lumidesign based on a
settlement agreement. Order No. 8 (July
6, 2017), not reviewed Notice (July 27,
2017).
The Commission successfully served
the complaint and notice of
investigation on Project Light on May 3,
2017. See Memorandum in Support of
Motion by Complainant Electric Mirror,
LLC for an Order to Show Cause And for
Entry of Default as to Sole Remaining
Respondent Project Light, LLC And to
Suspend the Procedural Schedule (June
26, 2017) at Ex. A. On June 26, 2017,
Electric Mirror moved for an order
directing Project Light to show cause
why it should not be held in default for
failing to respond to the complaint,
notice of investigation, and discovery
requests. Id. at 1. On July 10, 2017, the
ALJ granted the motion and ordered
Project Light to show cause why it
should not be held in default. Project
Light did not respond.
On August 3, 2017, the ALJ issued the
subject ID, finding Project Light in
default. No petition for review of the ID
was filed.
The Commission has determined not
to review the subject ID.
Section 337(g)(1) and Commission
Rule 210.16(c) authorize the
Commission to order relief against a
respondent found in default, unless,
after considering the public interest, it
finds that such relief should not issue.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:41 Sep 13, 2017
Jkt 241001
In connection with the final
disposition of this investigation, the
Commission may: (1) Issue an order that
could result in the exclusion of articles
manufactured or imported by Project
Light; and/or (2) issue cease and desist
orders that could result in Project Light
being required to cease and desist from
engaging in unfair acts in the
importation and sale of such articles.
Accordingly, the Commission is
interested in receiving written
submissions that address the form of
remedy, if any, that should be ordered.
If a party seeks exclusion of an article
from entry into the United States for
purposes other than entry for
consumption, the party should so
indicate and provide information
establishing that activities involving
other types of entry either are adversely
affecting it or likely to do so. For
background, see Certain Devices for
Connecting Computers via Telephone
Lines, Inv. No. 337–TA–360, USITC
Pub. No. 2843, Comm’n Op. at 7–10
(December 1994).
If the Commission contemplates some
form of remedy, it must consider the
effects of that remedy upon the public
interest. The factors that the
Commission will consider include the
effect that the exclusion order and/or
cease and desists 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 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 if a remedy is
ordered.
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.
Electric Mirror is requested to submit

Mirror is also requested to state the
HTSUS numbers under which the
accused products are imported, and to
state the date that the ’414 patent
expires. Electric Mirror is further
requested to supply identification
information on any known importers.

submissions has been extended to the
close of business on September 20,
2017. The deadline for filing reply
submissions has been extended to the
close of business on September 27,
2017. No further submissions on these
issues will be permitted unless
otherwise ordered by the Commission.

Certain Mirrors With Internal Illumination and Components
Thereof;
Supplemental Notice of Commission Determination Not To Review an
Initial Determination Finding the Sole Remaining Respondent in Default;
Request for Written Submissions on Remedy, the Public Interest, and
Bonding
AGENCY: U.S. International Trade Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade
Commission has determined not to review an initial determination
(``ID'') (Order No. 10) finding the sole remaining respondent in
default. The Commission requests written submissions, under the
schedule set forth below, on remedy, public interest, and bonding.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Clint Gerdine, Office of the General
Counsel, U.S. International Trade Commission, 500 E Street SW.,
Washington, DC 20436, telephone 202-708-2310. Copies of non-
confidential 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. General information concerning the Commission
may also be obtained by accessing its Internet server (https://www.usitc.gov). The public record for this investigation may be viewed
on the Commission's electronic docket (EDIS) at https://edis.usitc.gov.
Hearing-impaired persons are advised that information on this matter
can be obtained by contacting the Commission's TDD terminal on 202-205-
1810.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation
on May 8, 2017, based on a complaint filed by Electric Mirror, LLC of
Everett, Washington (``Electric Mirror'') and Kelvin 42 LLC of
Pensacola, Florida
[[Page 43253]]
(``Kelvin''). 82 FR 21405 (May 8, 2017). The complaint, as amended,
alleges violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, in the importation into the United States, the
sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after
importation of certain mirrors with internal illumination and
components thereof by reason of infringement of certain claims of U.S.
Patent Nos. 7,853,414 (``the '414 patent'') and 7,559,668 (``the '668
patent''). The notice of investigation named as respondents Lumidesign
Inc. of Ontario, Canada (``Lumidesign''); Majestic Mirrors & Frame, LLC
of Miami, Florida (``Majestic''); and Project Light, LLC (d/b/a Project
Light, Inc., Prospetto Light, LLC, and/or Prospetto Lighting, LLC) of
Stow, Ohio (``Project Light''). The Office of Unfair Import
Investigations was not named as a party to the investigation.
The Commission previously terminated the investigation in part
based on withdrawal of allegations concerning complainant Kelvin,
respondent Majestic, and the '668 patent. Order No. 6 (June 19, 2017),
not reviewed Notice (July 10, 2017). The Commission also previously
terminated the investigation with respect to respondent Lumidesign
based on a settlement agreement. Order No. 8 (July 6, 2017), not
reviewed Notice (July 27, 2017).
The Commission successfully served the complaint and notice of
investigation on Project Light on May 3, 2017. See Memorandum in
Support of Motion by Complainant Electric Mirror, LLC for an Order to
Show Cause And for Entry of Default as to Sole Remaining Respondent
Project Light, LLC And to Suspend the Procedural Schedule (June 26,
2017) at Ex. A. On June 26, 2017, Electric Mirror moved for an order
directing Project Light to show cause why it should not be held in
default for failing to respond to the complaint, notice of
investigation, and discovery requests. Id. at 1. On July 10, 2017, the
ALJ granted the motion and ordered Project Light to show cause why it
should not be held in default. Project Light did not respond.
On August 3, 2017, the ALJ issued the subject ID, finding Project
Light in default. No petition for review of the ID was filed.
The Commission has determined not to review the subject ID.
Section 337(g)(1) and Commission Rule 210.16(c) authorize the
Commission to order relief against a respondent found in default,
unless, after considering the public interest, it finds that such
relief should not issue.
In connection with the final disposition of this investigation, the
Commission may: (1) Issue an order that could result in the exclusion
of articles manufactured or imported by Project Light; and/or (2) issue
cease and desist orders that could result in Project Light being
required to cease and desist from engaging in unfair acts in the
importation and sale of such articles. Accordingly, the Commission is
interested in receiving written submissions that address the form of
remedy, if any, that should be ordered. If a party seeks exclusion of
an article from entry into the United States for purposes other than
entry for consumption, the party should so indicate and provide
information establishing that activities involving other types of entry
either are adversely affecting it or likely to do so. For background,
see Certain Devices for Connecting Computers via Telephone Lines, Inv.
No. 337-TA-360, USITC Pub. No. 2843, Comm'n Op. at 7-10 (December
1994).
If the Commission contemplates some form of remedy, it must
consider the effects of that remedy upon the public interest. The
factors that the Commission will consider include the effect that the
exclusion order and/or cease and desists 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.

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 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 if a remedy is ordered.

government agencies, and any other interested parties are encouraged to
file written submissions on the issues of remedy, the public interest,

requested to state the HTSUS numbers under which the accused products
are imported, and to state the date that the '414 patent expires.
