Description of the AML Reclamation
Program
SMCRA established the Abandoned
Mine Reclamation Fund to receive the
AML fees that, along with funds from
other sources, are used to finance
reclamation of AML coal mine sites and
for certain other purposes. Title IV of
SMCRA authorizes OSMRE to provide
grants, funded from permanent
(mandatory) appropriations, to eligible
States and Tribes. Recipients use these
funds: To reclaim the highest priority
AML coal mine sites that were
abandoned prior to the enactment of
SMCRA in 1977; to reclaim eligible noncoal sites; for projects that address the
impacts of mineral development; and
for non-reclamation projects.
Description of the Regulatory Program
Title V of SMCRA authorizes OSMRE
to provide grants to States and Tribes to
develop, administer, and enforce State
and Tribal regulatory programs that
address, among other things, the
disturbances from coal mining
operations. Additionally, upon our
approval of a State or Tribal regulatory
program, Title V authorizes that State or
Tribe to assume regulatory primacy and
act as the regulatory authority within
the State or Tribe, and to administer and
enforce its approved regulatory
program. These provisions of SMCRA
are implemented by our regulations at

of Unfair Import Investigations is also a
party to the investigation. See id.
On October 8, 1987, the presiding
administrative law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued
an initial determination granting
Complainant’s motion to amend the
complaint and notice of investigation to
add Keron Industrial Co., Ltd. and
Daewang International Corp. as
respondents. See Order No. 28 (Oct. 8,
1987), unreviewed by, Comm’n Notice
(Oct. 29, 1987).
The Commission terminated eight (8)
respondents based on settlement,
namely, Meditech, Polycraft, Chung
Kong, Euroweld, Daewang, Keron,
Gideons, and Lien Bin. See Order No. 49
(Nov. 25, 1987), unreviewed by, Comm’n
Notice (Dec. 29, 1987). The Commission
also found all but two (2) respondents
(Chang Won and Kwang ll) in default,
namely, Hogn Ter, Insertion, Ka Shing,
Nina Plastic, Siam Import, Ta Sen, Teck
Keung, Tracon, C.A.G., Lim Tai, RolPak, and Ideal. See Order No. 44 (Nov.
19, 1987), unreviewed by, Comm’n
Notice (Dec. 21, 1987); Order No. 56
(Dec. 9, 1987), unreviewed by, Comm’n
Notice (Jan. 14, 1988); Order No. 59
(Dec. 24, 1987), unreviewed by, Comm’n
Notice (Jan. 25, 1988).
On January 29, 1988, the ALJ issued
his final ID finding a violation of section
337. On March 16, 1988, the
Commission determined not to review
of the ID. See 53 FR 9495, 1988 WL
264423 (March 23, 1988). On April 29,
1988, the Commission issued a general
exclusion order prohibiting the entry
into the United States, except under
license, of (1) reclosable plastic bags and
tubing manufactured according to a
process which, if practiced in the
United States, would infringe claims 1,
3, 4, or 5 of the ‘872 Patent; and (2)
reclosable plastic bags and tubing which
infringe the ‘120 Trademark. See Notice
of Issuance of Exclusion Order, 0089
WL 1685278, *1 (Apr. 29, 1988). The
Commission did not issue cease and
desist orders. See id. at *4.
The ’872 Patent expired on March 23,
1993, 17 years after its issuance. The
’120 Trademark was cancelled on March
28, 2020.
In view of the expiration of the ’872
Patent and the cancellation of the ’120
Trademark, and pursuant to the
Commission’s authority under section
337(k)(1), 19 U.S.C. 1337(k)(1), the
Commission has determined to institute
a rescission proceeding and to rescind
the general exclusion order issued in the
underlying investigation. The rescission
proceeding is terminated.
The Commission’s vote on this
determination took place on October 29,
2021.
