Certain Amorphous Metal and Products Containing Same; Amending 
the Complaint and Notice of 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 the presiding administrative 
law judge's (``ALJ'') initial determination (``ID'') (Order No. 12), 
which granted a motion to amend the complaint and notice of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on October 30, 2017, based on a complaint filed by Metglas, Inc. of 
Conway, South Carolina and Hitachi Metals, Ltd. of Tokyo, Japan. 82 FR 
50156 (Oct. 30, 2017). The complaint alleged violations of section 337 
of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337 by reason of 
misappropriation of trade secrets. Id. The notice of investigation 
named as respondents AT&M International Trading Co., Ltd. (``AT&M''), 
CISRI International Trading Co., Ltd., and Beijing ZLJG Amorphous 
Technology Co., Ltd., each of Beijing, China; as well as Qingdao Yunlu 
Energy Technology Co. of Qingdao, China. Id. at 50157. The Office of 
Unfair Import Investigations was also named as a party. Id.
    On April 10, 2018, the complainants moved for leave to amend the 
complaint and notice of investigation for two reasons. First, the 
complainants sought to add as a respondent AT&M-NARI Amorphous 
Technology Co., Ltd. (``AT&M-NARI'') of Zhouzhou, China. Second, the 
complainants sought to make corrections to the names of two existing 
respondents: Advanced Technology & Materials Beijing ZLJG Amorphous 
Technology Co., Ltd. should be corrected to Beijing ZJLG Amorphous 
Technology Co., Ltd.; and Qingdao Yunlu Energy Technology Co., Ltd. 
should be corrected to Qingdao Yunlu Advanced Materials Technology Co., 
Ltd. The respondents did not oppose the motion and on April 17, 2018, 
the Commission investigative attorney responded in support of the 
motion.
    On April 18, 2018, the ALJ granted the motion as the subject ID. 
The ID finds that good cause exists for amending the complaint and 
notice of investigation because the complainants were unaware of AT&M-
NARI, and only learned of AT&M-NARI's involvement when existing 
respondent AT&M identified it in interrogatory responses. ID at 1-2; 
see 19 CFR 210.14(b)(1).
    No petitions for review of the ID were filed. The Commission has 
determined not to review the ID.
    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 Part 210 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 
part 210).

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: May 18, 2018.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
