The complaint, as supplemented, alleged violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the importation into the United States, sale for importation, and/or sale within the United States after importation of certain insect traps that infringe the claims of ABC's U.S. Patents No. 6,286,249 and No. 6,145,243. The notice of investigation identified one respondent, Blue Rhino Corp. (“BRC”) of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. On November 10, 2003, ABC filed a motion to amend its complaint to add the following four entities as respondents in the investigation: Blue Rhino Consumer Products (“BRCP”), LLC of Winston-Salem, North Carolina; Blue Rhino Global Sourcing, LLC (“BRGS”), of Winston-Salem, North Carolina; Guangdong Dong Fang Imp. & Exp. Corp. of Shenzhen, China; and Lentek International, Inc. of Kissimmee, Florida. The Commission investigative attorney supported the motion. Existing respondent BRC and proposed respondents BRCP and BRGS filed a response indicating that they did not oppose the motion. On December 8, 2003, the presiding administrative law judge issued an ID (Order No. 5) granting ABC's motion. No petitions for review of the ID were filed. This action is taken under the authority of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, 19 U.S.C. 1337, and section 210.42(h) of the Commission Rules of Practice and Procedure, 19 CFR 210.42(h). By order of the Commission. Issued: January 7, 2004. Marilyn R. Abbott, Secretary. [FR Doc. 04-675 Filed 1-12-04; 8:45 am]
