SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation based on a complaint filed by Osram GmbH and Osram Opto Semiconductors GmbH, both of Germany (collectively, ‘‘Osram’’). 69 FR 32609 (June 10, 2004). In the complaint, as supplemented and amended, Osram alleged violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 in the importation into the United States, the sale for importation, and the sale VerDate jul<14>2003 18:02 Aug 15, 2005 Jkt 205001 within the United States after importation of certain light-emitting diodes and products containing the same by reason of infringement of various claims of United States Patent Nos. 6,066,861, 6,277,301, 6,613,247, 6,245,259, 6,592,780 (collectively, the ‘‘Particle Size Patents’’), United States Patent No. 6,576,930 (the ‘‘ ‘930 patent’’), United States Patent Nos. 6,376,902, 6,469,321, 6,573,580 (collectively, the ‘‘Lead Frame Patents’’), and United States Patent No. 6,716,673 (the ‘‘ ‘673 patent’’). On May 10, 2005, the presiding administrative law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued his final initial determination (‘‘ID’’) finding the sole remaining respondent Dominant in violation of section 337, but only with respect to the ‘673 patent. The ALJ concluded that the asserted claims of the Particle Size Patents are invalid for indefiniteness, that the ‘930 patent and the Lead Frame Patents are not infringed by Dominant’s accused products, and that Osram does not meet the technical prong of the domestic industry requirement with respect to the ‘930 patent. On June 24, 2005, the Commission determined to review the ALJ’s findings and conclusions regarding the Particle Size Patents, the ‘930 patent, and the Lead Frame Patents. 70 FR 37431 (June 29, 2005). The Commission declined to review the ALJ’s determination of violation of section 337 with respect to the ‘673 patent. Having examined the record of this investigation, including the ALJ’s final ID and the submissions of the parties, the Commission has (1) determined that the Particle Size Patents are not invalid for indefiniteness with respect to the phrase ‘‘mean grain diameter d50’’ or the failure to specify the basis for calculating the ‘‘mean grain diameter d50’’ and particle size distribution as number or volume, construed the asserted claims, and remanded this part of the investigation to the ALJ for the purpose of determining whether there is a violation of section 337; and (2) determined that there is no violation of section 337 with regard to the ‘930 patent. The Commission has extended the target date of the above-captioned investigation to December 12, 2005 and instructed the ALJ to make his determination on remand by October 11, 2005. The parties are invited to file comments on the ALJ’s remand determination within five business days after service of the ALJ’s determination and to file responses to the comments within five business days after service of the comments. The Commission has decided to defer addressing the issue of violation of the Lead Frame Patents, as PO 00000 Frm 00096 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 well as issues relating to remedy, public interest, and bonding, until after the ALJ issues his initial determination on remand regarding the Particle Size Patents. Further, the Commission has determined to deny Osram’s motion to admit the prosecution history of United States Application No. 10/616,783 into the record. The Commission, however, has determined to grant Dominant’s motion for extension of time to submit its Response of Respondent Dominant Semiconductors Sdn. Bhd. to the Notice of Commission Determination to Review a Final Determination on Violation of Section 337. 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 section 210.45 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.45). Issued: August 10, 2005. By order of the Commission. Marilyn R. Abbott, Secretary to the Commission.

[FR Doc. 05–16159 Filed 8–15–05; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4410–18–P DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Bureau of Labor Statistics Proposed Collection; Comment Request ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments concerning the proposed revision of the ‘‘Local Area Unemployment Statistics (LAUS) Program.’’ A copy of the proposed information collection request (ICR) can be obtained by contacting the individual listed below in the Addresses section of this notice. DATES: Written comments must be submitted to the office listed in the Addresses section below on or before October 17, 2005. ADDRESSES: Send comments to Amy A. Hobby, BLS Clearance Officer, Division of Management Systems, Bureau of PO 00000 Frm 00097 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 48195 Labor Statistics, Room 4080, 2 Massachusetts Avenue, NE., Washington, DC 20212, telephone number 202–691–7628 (This is not a toll free number.) FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Amy A. Hobby, BLS Clearance Officer, telephone number 202–691–7628. (See Addresses section.) SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background The BLS has been charged by Congress (29 U.S.C. Section 1 and 2) with the responsibility of collecting and publishing monthly information on employment, the average wage received, and the hours worked by area and industry. The process for developing residency-based employment and unemployment estimates is a cooperative Federal-State program which uses employment and unemployment inputs available in State Workforce Agencies. The labor force estimates developed and issued in this program are used for economic analysis and as a tool in the implementation of Federal economic policy in such areas as employment and economic development under the Workforce Investment Act and the Public Works and Economic Development Act, among others. The estimates also are used in economic analysis by public agencies and private industry, and for State and area funding allocations and eligibility determinations according to legal and administrative requirements. Implementation of current policy and legislative authorities could not be accomplished without collection of the data. The reports and manual covered by this request are integral parts of the LAUS program insofar as they insure and/or measure the timeliness, quality, consistency, and adherence to program directions of the LAUS estimates and related research. II. Current Action The BLS is revising the information collection request that makes up the LAUS program. All aspects of the program are automated. All data are entered directly into BLS-provided systems. The BLS, as part of its responsibility to develop concepts and methods by which States prepare estimates under the LAUS program, developed a manual for use by the States. The manual explains the conceptual framework for the State and area estimates of employment and unemployment, specifies the procedures to be used, E:\FR\FM\16AUN1.SGM 16AUN1
