behalf of Neptune Subsea Acquisitions Ltd. of the United Kingdom; 
Neptune Subsea IP Ltd. of the United Kingdom; and Xtera, Inc. of Allen, 
Texas (``complainants''). 83 FR 3370 (Jan. 26, 2018). The complaint, as 
supplemented, alleges violations of Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 
1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337 (``section 337''), based upon the 
importation into the United States,

[[Page 37517]]

the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States after 
importation of certain subsea telecommunication systems and components 
thereof by reason of infringement of one or more claims of U.S. Patent 
No. 8,380,068; U.S. Patent No. 7,860,403; U.S. Patent No. 8,971,171; 
U.S. Patent No. 8,351,798; and U.S. Patent No. 8,406,637. The complaint 
further alleges that an industry in the United States exists as 
required by section 337. The Notice of Investigation named Nokia 
Corporation of Espoo, Finland; Nokia Solutions and Networks B.V. of 
Hoofddorp, The Netherlands; Nokia Solutions and Networks Oy of Espoo, 
Finland; Alcatel-Lucent Submarine Networks SAS of Boulogne-Billancourt, 
France; Nokia Solutions and Networks US LLC of Phoenix, Arizona; NEC 
Corporation of Tokyo, Japan; NEC Networks & System Integration 
Corporation of Tokyo, Japan; and NEC Corporation of America of Irving, 
Texas as respondents. The Office of Unfair Import Investigations was 
named as a party in this investigation.
    On May 30, 2018, the complainants filed an unopposed motion for 
leave to amend the complaint and notice of investigation to reflect a 
corporate name change of one of the complainants from Neptune Subsea 
Acquisitions Ltd. to Xtera Topco Ltd.
    On July 10, 2018, the ALJ issued the subject ID, granting 
complainants' unopposed motion. The ALJ found that good cause exists to 
amend the complaint and notice of investigation and that there was no 
evidence that the proposed amendment would harm the public interest or 
prejudice to the parties in the investigation. 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: July 27, 2018.
