Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 171 / Wednesday, September 5, 2007 / Notices
The Spricks will avoid conducting
activities that could adversely affect the
Oregon chub’s habitat within 100 feet of
the pond’s perimeter during the 10-year
term of the Agreement. The permit
duration is 30 years, which would allow
up to an additional 20 years for the
terms of the Agreement to remain in
effect before a return to baseline
conditions may occur.
Without the regulatory assurances
provided through the Agreement and
permit, landowners may otherwise be
unwilling or reluctant to engage in
activities that would place federallylisted species such as the Oregon chub
onto their properties. The proposed
Agreement is expected to provide a net
conservation benefit to the Oregon chub
by creating a protected refugia,
increasing the population, and
translocating individuals, beyond those
needed to maintain the refugia
population, to other suitable locations.
The Oregon chub was listed as an
endangered species by the Service in
1993 (58 FR 53800). At the time of
listing, their were only five known
populations and they were restricted to
an 18.6 mile stretch of the Middle Fork
Willamette River drainage, representing
approximately two percent of the
species’ historic range. In 2006, there
were 18 populations totaling 500 or
more individuals. Oregon chub remain
at risk due to the loss of suitable habitat
and the continued threats posed by the
proliferation of non-native fishes, water
withdrawals, accelerated sedimentation
due to land management activities, and
potential chemical spills or careless
pesticide applications. Their status has
improved in recent years, resulting
primarily from successful introductions
and the discovery of previously
undocumented populations.

The Service has made a preliminary
determination that the proposed
Agreement and permit application are
eligible for a categorical exclusion under
the National Environmental Policy Act
of 1969 (NEPA). We explain the basis
for this determination in an
Environmental Action Statement that is
also available for public review (see
ADDRESSES).
The Service will evaluate the permit
application, associated documents, and
comments submitted thereon to
determine whether the permit
application meets the requirements of
section 10(a) of the Act and NEPA
regulations. All comments received,
including names and addresses, will
become part of the administrative record
and will be available for review
pursuant to section 10(c) of the Act.
Individual respondents may request that
we withhold their home address from
the record, which we will honor to the
extent allowable by law. If you wish us
to withhold your name and/or address,
you must state this prominently at the
beginning of your comment.
Anonymous comments will not be
considered. All submissions from
organizations or businesses, and from
individuals identifying themselves as
representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, are
available for public inspection in their
entirety.
If we determine that all requirements
are met, we will sign the Agreement and
issue an enhancement of survival permit
under section 10(a)(1)(A) of the Act to
Mr. and Mrs. Sprick for the take of
Oregon chub, incidental to otherwise
lawful activities in accordance with the
terms of the Agreement. This notice is
provided pursuant to section 10(c) of
the Act and NEPA regulations (40 CFR
1506.6).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
investigation was instituted on
September 23, 2005, based on a
complaint filed by Bavarian Nordic
A/S of Denmark (‘‘Bavarian Nordic’’).
The complaint alleged violations of
section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19
U.S.C. 1337) (‘‘section 337’’) in the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

importation into the United States, the
sale for importation, and the sale within
the United States after importation of
certain Modified Vaccinia Ankara
(‘‘MVA’’) viruses and vaccines and
pharmaceutical compositions based
thereon by reason of infringement of
various claims of United States Patent
Nos. 6,761,893 and 6,913,752. The
complaint also alleged violations of
section 337 in the importation of certain
MVA viruses and vaccines and
pharmaceutical compositions based
thereon or in the sale of such articles by
reason of misappropriation of trade
secrets, the threat or effect of which is
to destroy or substantially injure an
industry in the United States. The
complaint named a single respondent,
Acambis PLC of the United Kingdom
(‘‘Acambis’’). Only the patent
allegations remain in this investigation.
After a hearing and post-hearing
briefing, the then-presiding ALJ issued a
final initial determination (‘‘final ID’’)
on September 6, 2006, finding no
violation of section 337. The ALJ held
that the patents were infringed but
invalid.
Bavarian Nordic, Acambis, and the
Commission investigative attorney filed
petitions for review of the final ID. On
November 22, 2006, the Commission
determined to review the final ID in its
entirety, and to ask the parties for
briefing on the issues on review and on
remedy, the public interest, and
bonding. On February 21, 2007, the
Commission determined to remand the
final ID to the ALJ and to extend the
target date for completion of the
investigation to October 19, 2007. The
target date was subsequently extended
to February 20, 2008.
On July 27, 2007, complainant and
respondent filed a joint motion to
terminate the investigation on the basis
of a consent order. The Commission
investigative attorney filed a response in
support of the motion. The consent
order includes a provision vacating the
final ID of September 6, 2006.
The ALJ issued the subject ID on
August 9, 2007, granting the motion for
termination. He found that the consent
order stipulation satisfies Commission
rule 210.21(c)(3)(i), and that the
termination of the investigation by
consent order is not contrary to the
public interest. No party petitioned for
review of the ID. The Commission has
determined not to review the ID. The
investigation is terminated in its
entirety and the final ID of September 6,
2006, is vacated.
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
