her possession, and to render
appropriate accounts to the client
regarding the funds, securities, and
other properties. These recordkeeping
requirements are necessary to maintain
the integrity of client property. Each
State Bar requires its attorneys to
perform similar record keeping.
The Code also requires an attorney or
agent to report knowledge of certain
violations of the Code to the USPTO. If
the complaint is found to have merit,
the USPTO will investigate and possibly
prosecute violations of the Code. The
Director of the Office of Enrollment and
Discipline (OED) may, after notice and
opportunity for a hearing, suspend,
exclude, or disqualify any practitioner
from further practice before the USPTO
based on noncompliance with the
regulations.
Practitioners who have been excluded
or suspended from practice before the
USPTO must keep and maintain records
of their steps to comply with the
suspension or exclusion order. These
records serve as the practitioner’s proof
of compliance with the order.
II. Method of Collection
By mail, facsimile, or hand delivery to
the USPTO when an individual is
required to participate in the
information collection.
III. Data
OMB Number: 0651–0017.
Form Number(s): There are no forms
associated with this collection.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; businesses or other for
profits; not-for-profit institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
635 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: The
USPTO estimates that it will take the
public approximately 2 to 40 hours,
depending upon the complexity of the
situation, to gather the necessary
information, maintain the required
records, prepare the complaint, and
submit the various documents in this
information collection to the USPTO.
Estimated Total Annual Respondent
Burden Hours: 12,330 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Respondent
Cost Burden: $1,275,120. At $100 per
hour for a para-professional/clerical
worker, the USPTO estimates
$1,197,000 per year for salary costs
associated with respondents for the
recordkeeping requirements in this
collection. For complaint/violation
reporting, the USPTO predicts that half
of the complaints will be filed by
practitioners and that the remaining
complaints will be split evenly between
non-legal professionals and semiprofessionals or skilled trades persons.
The USPTO estimates that it will cost
practitioners $325 per hour, non-legal
professionals $156 per hour, and semiprofessionals or skilled trades persons
$60 per hour to submit a complaint, for
a weighted average rate of $217 per
hour. Considering these factors, the
USPTO estimates $78,120 per year for
salary costs associated with filing a
complaint, for a total annual respondent
cost burden of $1,275,120 per year.

Estimated Total Annual (Non-hour)
Respondent Cost Burden: $487. There
are no capital start-up costs,
maintenance costs or filing fees
associated with this information
collection. There are, however, postage
costs.
The public may submit the
complaints in this collection to the
USPTO by mail through the United
States Postal Service. If these documents
are sent by first-class mail, a certificate
of mailing for each piece of
correspondence, stating the date of
deposit or transmission to the USPTO,
may also be included. The USPTO
expects that 180 complaints will be
mailed to the USPTO with first-class
postage, with 50% or 90 complaints
weighing 2 ounces at an average cost of
61 cents for a total of $55; and 50% or
90 complaints weighing 1 pound at an
average cost of $4.80 for a total of $432.
Therefore, this information collection
has a total of $487 in annual (non-hour)
respondent cost burden.

Background
On December 8, 2009, the Department
of Commerce (‘‘Department’’) published
the preliminary results of the
administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on circular
welded non–alloy steel pipe from the
Republic of Korea, covering the period
November 1, 2007 through October 31,
2008. See Circular Welded Non–Alloy
Steel Pipe from the Republic of Korea:
Preliminary Results and Rescission in
Part of the Antidumping Duty
Administrative Review, 74 FR 64670
(December 8, 2009) (‘‘Preliminary
Results’’). The final results of this
administrative review were originally
due no later than April 7, 2010. As
explained in the memorandum from the
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, the Department has
exercised its discretion to toll deadlines
for the duration of the closure of the
Federal Government from February 5,
through February 12, 2010. Thus, all
deadlines in this segment of the
proceeding have been extended by
seven days. The revised deadline for the
final results of this review is currently
April 14, 2010. See Memorandum to the
Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for
Import Administration, regarding
‘‘Tolling of Administrative Deadlines As
a Result of the Government Closure
During the Recent Snowstorm,’’ dated
February 12, 2010.
Extension of Time Limit for Final
Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act
of 1930, as amended (‘‘Act’’), requires
that the Department issue the final
results of an administrative review
within 120 days after the date on which
the preliminary results are published. If
it is not practicable to complete the
review within that time period, section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act allows the
Department to extend the deadline for
the final results to a maximum of 180
days after the date on which the
preliminary results are published.
The Department has determined that
it requires additional time to complete
this review. Verification was conducted
after the Preliminary Results and the
Department needs to allow time for
parties to brief the issues, provide
rebuttal comments, and conduct a
hearing, if requested. Moreover, the
Department needs to consider all the
issues raised, possibly including
complex issues regarding cost

methodology. Thus, it is not practicable
to complete this review by April 14,
2010, and the Department is extending
the time limit for completion of the final
results by an additional 60 days to June
13, 2010, in accordance with section
751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. However, June
13, 2010, falls on a Sunday, and it is the
Department’s long–standing practice to
issue a determination the next business
day when the statutory deadline falls on
a weekend, federal holiday, or any other
day when the Department is closed. See
Notice of Clarification: Application of
‘‘Next Business Day’’ Rule for
Administrative Determination Deadlines
Pursuant to the Tariff Act of 1930, As
Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005).
Accordingly, the deadline for
completion of the final results is now no
later than June 14, 2010.
We are issuing and publishing this
notice in accordance with sections
751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i) of the Act.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
subject permit is requested under the
authority of the Marine Mammal
Protection Act of 1972, as amended
(MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.), the
regulations governing the taking and
importing of marine mammals (50 CFR
part 216), the Endangered Species Act of
1973, as amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531
et seq.), and the regulations governing
the taking, importing, and exporting of
endangered and threatened species (50
CFR 222–226).
The applicant requests a permit to
attach tags to a variety of large and small
endangered and non-endangered
cetacean species. Research would occur
in the North Atlantic from Maine to
Texas and in the North Pacific from
Alaska to California, including Hawaii.
A peduncle belt type tag attachment
mechanism has been developed as a
noninvasive tagging option for medium
to long-term cetacean studies. Two
different types of peduncle belt tags
would be used: (1) a form-fitting saddle
pack tag which sits on the dorsal ridge
of the peduncle just before the fluke
insertion and (2) a peduncle-let harness
which secures a towed telemetry buoy.
Multiple research objectives would be
addressed using data from the tags,
including: (1) long-term movement and
habitat use studies using satellite/GPS/
depth tags, (2) medium-term acoustic
studies using an audio recording
package to examine transmitted and
received sound, and (3) extended finescale behavioral ecology studies using
multi-sensor data recording packages.
Initial efforts would be limited to five
species. In the first year, a maximum of
10 humpback whales (Megaptera
novaeangliae), 10 long-finned pilot
whales (Globicephala melas), 10 short-

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On December 8, 2009, the Department of Commerce (``Department'')
published the preliminary results of the administrative review of the
antidumping duty order on circular welded non-alloy steel pipe from the
Republic of Korea, covering the period November 1, 2007 through October
31, 2008. See Circular Welded Non-Alloy Steel Pipe from the Republic of
Korea: Preliminary Results and Rescission in Part of the Antidumping
Duty Administrative Review, 74 FR 64670 (December 8, 2009)
(``Preliminary Results''). The final results of this administrative
review were originally due no later than April 7, 2010. As explained in
the memorandum from the Deputy Assistant Secretary for Import
Administration, the Department has exercised its discretion to toll
deadlines for the duration of the closure of the Federal Government
from February 5, through February 12, 2010. Thus, all deadlines in this
segment of the proceeding have been extended by seven days. The revised
deadline for the final results of this review is currently April 14,
2010. See Memorandum to the Record from Ronald Lorentzen, DAS for
Import Administration, regarding ``Tolling of Administrative Deadlines
As a Result of the Government Closure During the Recent Snowstorm,''
dated February 12, 2010.
Extension of Time Limit for Final Results
Section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended
(``Act''), requires that the Department issue the final results of an
administrative review within 120 days after the date on which the
preliminary results are published. If it is not practicable to complete
the review within that time period, section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act
allows the Department to extend the deadline for the final results to a
maximum of 180 days after the date on which the preliminary results are
published.
The Department has determined that it requires additional time to
complete this review. Verification was conducted after the Preliminary
Results and the Department needs to allow time for parties to brief the
issues, provide rebuttal comments, and conduct a hearing, if requested.
Moreover, the Department needs to consider all the issues raised,
possibly including complex issues regarding cost methodology. Thus, it
is not practicable to complete this review by April 14, 2010, and the
Department is extending the time limit for completion of the final
results by an additional 60 days to June 13, 2010, in accordance with
section 751(a)(3)(A) of the Act. However, June 13, 2010, falls on a
Sunday, and it is the Department's long-standing practice to issue a
determination the next business day when the statutory deadline falls
on a weekend, federal holiday, or any other day when the Department is
closed. See Notice of Clarification: Application of ``Next Business
Day'' Rule for Administrative Determination Deadlines Pursuant to the
Tariff Act of 1930, As Amended, 70 FR 24533 (May 10, 2005).
Accordingly, the deadline for completion of the final results is now no
later than June 14, 2010.
We are issuing and publishing this notice in accordance with
sections 751(a)(3)(A) and 777(i) of the Act.
