What changed: The notice states that the Commission determined not to review two initial determinations by the administrative law judge that terminate the remaining respondents based on settlement. As a result, the notice says the investigation is terminated as to those respondents and, thus, in its entirety.

It names the terminated respondents as Molex, LLC (Lisle, Illinois) and TE Connectivity Corporation (Berwyn, Pennsylvania). The notice does not specify HTS codes or countries of origin.

What to review:
- Review whether your imported products fall within the active electrical cables and components category referenced in this investigation.
- Confirm with your customs broker whether any exclusion order or other import restriction remains in effect, given the notice states the investigation is terminated.
- Check whether goods sourced from the named companies were previously subject to any related enforcement action.
- Confirm the current status of any related ITC or CBP measures affecting these product types.
