WASHINGTON, Oct 31 (Reuters) - Members of the U.S. 
International Trade Commission made three different 
recommendations for restricting solar panel and solar cell 
imports on Tuesday to U.S. President Donald Trump to address 
injury to domestic producers.  
    The recommendations range from an immediate 30 percent 
tariff on all imported solar modules to a four-year quota system 
that allows the import of up to 8.9 gigawatts of solar cells and 
modules in the first year.
