SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that on January 24, 2023, the presiding

Commission find a violation. This notice is soliciting comments from 
the public only.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 
provides that, if the Commission finds a violation, it shall exclude 
the articles concerned from the United States: unless, after 
considering the effect of such exclusion upon the public health and 
welfare, competitive conditions in the United States economy, the 
production of like or directly competitive articles in the United 
States, and United States consumers, it finds that such articles should 
not be excluded from entry. (19 U.S.C. 1337(d)(1)).
    The Commission is soliciting submissions on public interest issues 
raised by the recommended relief should the Commission find a 
violation, specifically: a limited exclusion order against certain 
replacement automotive lamps of TYC Brother Industrial Co., Ltd, Genera 
Corporation (dba TYC Genera), LKQ Corporation, and Keystone Automotive 
Industries, Inc. Parties are to file public interest submissions 
pursuant to 19 CFR 210.50(a)(4).
    The Commission is interested in further development of the record 
on the public interest in this investigation. Accordingly, members of 
the public are invited to file submissions of no more than five (5) 
pages, inclusive of attachments, concerning the public interest in 
light of the administrative law judge's recommended determination on 
remedy and bonding issued in this investigation on January 24, 2023. 
Comments should address whether issuance of the recommended limited 
exclusion order in this investigation would affect the public health 
and welfare in the United States, competitive conditions in the United 
States economy, the production of like or directly competitive articles 
in the United States, or United States consumers.
    In particular, the Commission is interested in comments that:
    (i) explain how the articles potentially subject to the recommended 
limited exclusion order are used in the United States;
    (ii) identify any public health, safety, or welfare concerns in the 
United States relating to the recommended limited exclusion order;
    (iii) identify like or directly competitive articles that 
complainant, its licensees, or third parties make in the United States 
which could replace the subject articles if they were to be excluded;
    (iv) indicate whether complainant, complainant's licensees, and/or 
third party suppliers have the capacity to replace the volume of 
articles potentially subject to the recommended limited exclusion order 
within a commercially reasonable time; and
    (v) explain how the recommended limited exclusion order would 
impact consumers in the United States.
    Written submissions must be filed no later than by close of 
business on February 23, 2023.
    Persons filing written submissions must file the original document 
electronically on or before the deadlines stated above. The
