Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade Commission has found a violation of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 337) based on the infringement of nine asserted claims of three asserted patents and has issued a general exclusion order and cease and desist orders in the above-captioned investigation.

The United States International Trade Commission (Commission) gives notice of the court-ordered remand of its final antidumping duty investigation No. 731-TA-991 (Final) (Remand).

Section 7 of the Steel Trade Liberalization Program Implementation Act of 1989 (``the Act''), as amended (19 U.S.C. 2703 note), which concerns local feedstock requirements for fuel ethyl alcohol imported by the United States from CBERA-beneficiary countries, requires the Commission to determine annually the U.S. domestic market for fuel ethyl alcohol during the 12-month period ending on the preceding September 30. The domestic market determination made by the Commission is to be used to establish the ``base quantity'' of imports that can be imported with a zero percent local feedstock requirement. The base quantity to be used by the U.S. Customs Service in the administration of the law is the greater of 60 million gallons or 7 percent of U.S. consumption as determined by the Commission. Beyond the base quantity of imports, progressively higher local feedstock requirements are placed on imports of fuel ethyl alcohol and mixtures from the CBERA-beneficiary countries. For the 12-month period ending September 30, 2006, the Commission has determined the level of U.S. consumption of fuel ethyl alcohol to be 5.03 billion gallons. Seven percent of this amount is 351.8 million gallons (these figures have been rounded). Therefore, the base quantity for 2007 should be 351.8 million gallons.

The Commission hereby gives notice that it has instituted reviews pursuant to section 751(c) of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1675(c)) (the Act) to determine whether revocation of the countervailing and antidumping duty orders on low enriched uranium from France would be likely to lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury. Pursuant to section 751(c)(2) of the Act, interested parties are requested to respond to this notice by submitting the information specified below to the Commission; \1\ to be assured of consideration, the deadline for responses is February 21, 2007. Comments on the adequacy of responses may be filed with the Commission by March 19, 2007. For further information concerning the conduct of these reviews and rules of general application, consult the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A through E (19 CFR part 201), and part 207, subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207).
