Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 211 / Thursday, October 30, 2008 / Notices
as appropriate, in accordance with local
protocol and procedures. This notice is
one component of our overall
coordination and consultation process
to provide notice to, and request
comments from, these entities when we
adjust irrigation assessment rates.
Actions Concerning Regulations That
Significantly Affect Energy Supply,
Distribution, or Use (Executive Order
13211)
The rate adjustments will have no
adverse effects on energy supply,
distribution, or use (including a
shortfall in supply, price increases, and
increase use of foreign supplies) should
the proposed rate adjustments be
implemented. This is a notice for rate
adjustments at BIA-owned and operated
irrigation projects, except for the Fort
Yuma Irrigation Project. The Fort Yuma
Irrigation Project is owned and operated
by the Bureau of Reclamation with a
portion serving the Fort Yuma
Reservation.
These rate adjustments are not a
significant regulatory action and do not
need to be reviewed by the Office of
Management and Budget under
Executive Order 12866.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
These rate adjustments are not a rule
for the purposes of the Regulatory
Flexibility Act because they establish ‘‘a
rule of particular applicability relating
to rates.’’ 5 U.S.C. 601(2).
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of
1995
These rate adjustments do not impose
an unfunded mandate on State, local, or
tribal governments in the aggregate, or
on the private sector, of more than $130
million per year. The rule does not have
a significant or unique effect on State,
local, or tribal governments or the
private sector. Therefore, the
Department is not required to prepare a
statement containing the information
required by the Unfunded Mandates
Reform Act (2 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
Takings (Executive Order 12630)
The Department has determined that
these rate adjustments do not have
significant ‘‘takings’’ implications. The
rate adjustments do not deprive the
public, State, or local governments of
rights or property.
Federalism (Executive Order 13132)
The Department has determined that
these rate adjustments do not have
significant Federalism effects because

Civil Justice Reform (Executive Order
12988)
In issuing this rule, the Department
has taken the necessary steps to
eliminate drafting errors and ambiguity,
minimize potential litigation, and
provide a clear legal standard for
affected conduct, as required by section
3 of Executive Order 12988.
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
These rate adjustments do not affect
the collections of information which
have been approved by the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget,
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995. The OMB Control Number is
1076–0141 and expires August 31, 2009.

(Executive Order 12866)
VerDate Aug<31>2005
they will not affect the States, the
relationship between the national
government and the States, or the
distribution of power and
responsibilities among various levels of
government.
The Department has determined that
these rate adjustments do not constitute
a major Federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human
environment and that no detailed
statement is required under the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42
U.S.C. 4321–4370(d)).
Information Quality Act
In developing this notice, we did not
conduct or use a study, experiment, or
survey requiring peer review under the
Information Quality Act (Pub. L. No.
106–554).
Dated: October 22, 2008.

Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Policy
and Economic Development—Indian Affairs.

Commission has determined to review a
portion of the final initial determination
(‘‘ID’’) issued by the presiding
administrative law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) on
August 25, 2008, regarding whether
there is a violation of section 337 of the
Tariff Act of 1930, 19 U.S.C. * 1337, in
the above-captioned consolidated
investigation.

information concerning the Commission
may also be obtained by accessing its

The public record for this investigation
may be viewed on the Commission’s

persons are advised that information on
this matter can be obtained by

terminal on (202) 205–1810.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Commission instituted Inv. No. 337-TA–
608 on July 6, 2007, based on a
complaint filed by Tillotson Corporation
d.b.a. Best Manufacturing Company
(‘‘Tillotson’’). The complaint alleged
violations of section 337 of the Tariff
Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. **1337) in the
importation into the United States, the
sale for importation, and the sale within
the United States after importation of
certain nitrile gloves by reason of
infringement of various claims of United
States Patent No. Re. 35,616 (‘‘the ’616
patent’’). The complaint named over
thirty respondents. The Commission
instituted a second investigation, Inv.
No. 337–TA–612, on August 22, 2007,
based on a complaint filed by Tillotson.
That complaint also alleged violations
of section 337 in the importation into
the United States, the sale for
importation, and the sale within the
United States after importation of
certain nitrile gloves by reason of
infringement of various claims of the
’616 patent and named seven
respondents. On September 19, 2007,
the ALJ consolidated Inv. No. 337–TA–
608 with Inv. No. 337–TA–612.
On August 25, 2008, the ALJ issued a
final ID and recommended
determination on remedy and bonding
in the above-referenced consolidated
PO 00000
Frm 00043
Fmt 4703

investigation, finding that the active
respondents did not violate section 337.
Specifically, he found that the vast
majority of accused gloves infringe
claims 17, 18, and 19 of the ’616 patent,
but that nine accused gloves do not
infringe the asserted claims. He also
concluded that when the patentees
amended the claims through a reissue
application filed more than two years
after the grant of the original patent,
they improperly enlarged the scope of
the claims, rendering them invalid. The
ALJ further concluded that the claims
are invalid because the patentees filed a
defective reissue declaration when
applying for the reissue patent. He
rejected other arguments of invalidity
and unenforceability. Accordingly, the
ALJ concluded that respondents had not
violated section 337.
On September 8, 2008, complainant
Tillotson filed a petition for review, as
did several respondents. On September
16, 2008, respondents filed a response
to complainant’s petition and
complainant filed a response to
respondents’ petition.
Having examined the record of this
investigation, including the ALJ’s ID
and the submissions of the parties, the
Commission has determined (1) to
review the ALJ’s claim construction of
the term ‘‘predetermined pressure,’’ (2)
to review the ALJ’s determination of
invalidity for a broadening reissue, (3)
to review the ALJ’s determination of
invalidity for a deficient reissue
declaration, (4) to review the ALJ’s
determination that the claims are not
invalid for failure to disclose a best
mode, (5) to review the ALJ’s
determination that the claims are not
invalid for lack of enablement, and (6)
not to review the ALJ’s determinations
relating to any of the remaining issues
on violation. Finally, the Commission
has determined to deny complainant’s
request for oral argument.
The parties should brief their
positions on the issues on review with
reference to the applicable law and the
evidentiary record. In connection with
its review, the Commission is
particularly interested in responses to
the following questions:
1. Before the ALJ and in its petition
for review, complainant asserted that
the term ‘‘predetermined pressure’’
means ‘‘the amount of pressure first
exerted on the hand by the glove after
the glove is donned.’’ Nevertheless,
complainant also states in its petition
that the ‘‘predetermined pressure’’ must
be determined in advance—a limitation
that is omitted from its proposed claim
construction. Assuming that the
‘‘predetermined pressure’’ must be
determined in advance, what does it
