Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 189 / Tuesday, September 30, 2014 / Notices
on January 15, 2014, based on a
complaint filed on behalf of Tyco Fire
& Security GmbH of Switzerland;
Sensormatic Electronics, LLC of Boca
Raton, Florida; and Tyco Integrated
Security, LLC of Boca Raton, Florida
(collectively ‘‘Complainants’’). 79 FR
2692–93 (Jan. 15, 2014). The complaint
alleged violations of Section 337 of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 19
U.S.C. 1337, in the sale for importation,
importation, or sale within the United
States after importation of certain
acousto-magnetic electronic article
surveillance systems, components
thereof, and products containing same
by reason of infringement of U.S. Patent
No. 5,729,200 and U.S. Patent No.
6,181,245. The notice of investigation
named Ningbo Signatronic
Technologies, Ltd., of Ningbo, China;
All-Tag Security Americas, Inc., of Boca
Raton, Florida; All-Tag Security Hong
Kong Co., Ltd. of Tsuen Wan N.T., Hong
Kong; All-Tag Europe SPRL of Brussels,
Belgium; All-Tag Security UK, Ltd. of
Cheshire, United Kingdom; Best
Security Industries of Delray Beach,
Florida; and Signatronic Corporation of
Boca Raton, Florida as respondents
(collectively ‘‘Respondents’’). The Office
of Unfair Import Investigations (‘‘OUII’’)
was also named as a party to the
investigation.
On August 11, 2014, Complainants
and Respondents filed a joint motion to
terminate the investigation based upon
a settlement agreement, a consent order
stipulation and a proposed consent
order. The moving parties represented
that there are no other agreements,
written or oral, express or implied
between them concerning the subject
matter of this investigation other than
the consent order stipulation, settlement
agreement and consent order. The
moving parties provided public versions
of the settlement agreement. OUII filed
a response stating that it did not oppose
the motion.
On August 25, 2014, the ALJ granted
the motion for termination of the
investigation. The ALJ found that the
consent order stipulation complied with
the Commission’s rules but made no
such finding as to the proposed consent
order. The ALJ also found that there was
no evidence that terminating the
investigation based on settlement and
consent order would be contrary to the
public interest. No petitions for review
were filed.
The Commission has determined to
review the subject ID. Commission Rule
210.21(c)(4) states in part that ‘‘[t]he
Commission will not issue consent
orders with terms beyond those
provided for in this section. . . .’’ The
Commission finds that the parties’
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 232001
proposed consent order includes not
only the provisions specified in Rule
210.21(c)(4), but also includes
additional terms from the consent order
stipulation. On review, the Commission
revises the proposed consent order to
bring it into compliance with the
Commission’s rules, issues the revised
consent order, and terminates the
investigation. The settlement agreement
and consent order resolve all claims
asserted in the investigation.
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: September 24, 2014.

Secretary to the Commission.

SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00082
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the Voluntary Protection
Program (VPP) Information ICR. The
VPP is a partnership between labor,
management, and government designed
to recognize and promote excellence in
safety and health management. In order
to participate in the VPP, an applicant
submits an application and an annual
self-evaluation containing a detailed
description of its safety and health
management programs to the OSHA,
which uses the information to conduct
a preliminary analysis of the worksite’s
programs and to make a preliminary
determination regarding the worksite’s
qualifications for the VPP. This ICR has
been classified as a revision, because
existing VPP forms have been modified
and the collection will include
additional forms that enable the OSHA
to improve the tracking and monitoring
of VPP participants.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1218–0239. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
September 30, 2014; however, the DOL
notes that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
New requirements would only take
effect upon OMB approval. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
June 30, 2014 (79 FR 36834).
