SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation

CELLS USA, Inc. of Dalton, Georgia and HQC-AMC of Seoul, Republic of 
Korea. 84 FR 14134-35 (April 9, 2019). The complaint alleges violations 
of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, 
based upon the importation into the United States, the sale for 
importation, and the sale

within the United States after importation of certain photovoltaic 
cells and products containing same by reason of infringement of certain 
claims of U.S. Patent No. 9,893,215. The complaint further alleges the 
existence of a domestic industry. The Commission's notice of 
investigation named several respondents. The Office of Unfair Import 
Investigations is participating in the investigation.
    On January 23, 2020, complainants filed an unopposed amended motion 
to amend the complaint and NOI to substitute HSC for HQC-AMC as a 
complainant.
    The subject ID (Order No. 38) issued on January 30, 2020, granting 
complainants' motion to amend the complaint and NOI. The ID finds that 
good cause exists to grant the motion to amend under Commission Rule 
210.14(b)(1) (19 CFR 210.14(b)(1)) because complainants' motion is 
unopposed. No petitions for review 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: March 2, 2020.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
