SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 
(``Section 337'') provides that if the Commission finds a violation it

public interest factors listed in 19 U.S.C. 1337(d)(1) prevent such 
action. A similar provision applies to cease and desist orders. 19 
U.S.C. 1337(f)(1).
    The Commission is soliciting comments on public interest issues 
raised by the recommended relief should the Commission find a 
violation, specifically: (1) A limited exclusion order (``LEO'') 
against certain road milling machines and components thereof, which are 
imported, sold for importation, and/or sold after importation by 
respondent Caterpillar Prodotti Stradali S.r.L.; Caterpillar Americas 
CV; Caterpillar Paving Products, Inc.; and Caterpillar Inc.

to file public interest submissions pursuant to 19 CFR 210.50(a)(4). In 
addition, members of the public are hereby 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 October 15, 2018. Comments should address whether 
issuance of the LEO and CDO in this investigation, should the 
Commission find a violation, 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.

excluded;
    (iv) Indicate whether complainants, complainants' licensees, and/or 
third party suppliers have the capacity to replace the volume of 
articles potentially subject to the recommended exclusion order and/or 
a cease and desist order within a commercially reasonable time; and
    (v) Explain how the LEO and CDO would impact consumers in the 
United States.
