the Investigation

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. 20) of the presiding administrative law judge 
(``ALJ'') granting complainants' motion to terminate the investigation 
based on the withdrawal of the complaint in the above-referenced 
investigation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on September 27, 2010, based on a complaint filed by Duggal Dimensions 
LLC; Duggal Energy Solutions, LLC; and Duggal Visual Solutions, Inc., 
collectively of New York, New York. 75 FR 59291 (Sept. 27, 2010). The 
complaint alleged 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 wind and solar-powered light posts and street 
lamps by reason of infringement of certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 
D610,732. The complaint named Gus Power Inc. of Mississauga, Ontario, 
Canada; Efston Science, Inc. of Toronto, Ontario, Canada; King 
Luminaire, Inc. of Jefferson, Ohio; and The StressCrete Group of 
Burlington, Ontario as respondents.
    On July 29, 2011, the ALJ issued an ID (Order No. 18) extending the 
target date of the investigation by approximately two months from 
January 27, 2012 to March 16, 2012 on the basis of the parties' delay 
to the procedural schedule.
    On August 1, 2011, complainants filed an unopposed motion to 
terminate the investigation based on the withdrawal of the complaint, 
stating that the private parties have entered into a written settlement 
agreement (``Settlement Agreement''). Public and confidential versions 
of the Settlement Agreement were attached to the motion. The motion 
also stated that there are no other agreements, written or oral, 
express or implied, between the parties concerning the subjection 
matter of this investigation. On August 2, 2011, the ALJ issued the 
subject ID granting complainants' unopposed motion. The public version 
of the Settlement Agreement is attached to the ID. The ALJ found that 
complainants' motion complies with Commission Rule 210.21(a). In the 
ID, the ALJ also denied a previous motion by respondents to terminate 
the investigation (Motion Docket No. 736-018) and a motion in limine by 
complainants to exclude the testimony of respondents' experts (Motion 
Docket No. 736-716), because the motions are moot.
    The Commission has determined not to review the subject ID. The 
Commission notes that as a result, the ID extending the target date of 
the investigation is moot.
    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 section 210.42 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure 
(19 CFR 210.42).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: August 23, 2011.
James R. Holbein,
Secretary to the Commission.
