SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission has received an amended 
complaint and a submission pursuant to section 210.8(b) of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure filed on behalf of AAVN, 
Inc. on October 20, 2015. The amended complaint alleges violations of 
section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (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 woven 
textile fabrics and products containing same. The amended complaint 
names as respondents AQ Textiles, LLC of Greensboro, NC; Creative 
Textile Mills Pvt. Ltd. of India; Indo Count Industries Ltd. of India; 
Indo Count Global, Inc. of New York, NY; GHCL Limited of India; Grace

requests that the Commission issue a permanent general exclusion order, 
a permanent cease and desist order, and a bond upon the alleged 
infringing articles during the 60-day Presidential review period 
pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 1337(j).
    Proposed respondents, other interested parties, and members of the 
public are invited to file comments, not to exceed five (5) pages in 
length, inclusive of attachments, on any public interest issues raised 
by the amended complaint or section 210.8(b) filing. Comments should 
address whether issuance of the relief specifically requested by the 
complainant 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 requested 
remedial orders are used in the United States;
    (ii) identify any public health, safety, or welfare concerns in the 
United States relating to the requested remedial orders;
    (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 requested exclusion order and/or a 
cease and desist order within a commercially reasonable time; and
    (v) explain how the requested remedial orders would impact United 
States consumers.
    Written submissions must be filed no later than by close of 
business, eight calendar days after the date of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register. There will be further opportunities for 
comment on the public interest after the issuance of any final initial 
determination in this investigation.
    Persons filing written submissions must file the original document 
electronically on or before the deadlines stated above and submit 8 
true paper copies to the Office of the Secretary by noon the next day
