SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

on March 10, 2009 based on a complaint
filed on February 3, 2009, by Avago
Technologies Fiber IP (Singapore) Pte.
Ltd. of Singapore; Avago Technologies
General IP (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. of
Singapore; and Avago Technologies Ltd.
of San Jose, California (collectively,
‘‘Avago’’). 74 FR 10278–79 (March 10,
2009). The complaint, as supplemented,
PO 00000
Frm 00099
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
41891
alleges violations of section 337 of the
Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 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
optoelectronic devices, components
thereof, or products containing the same
by reason of infringement of certain
claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 5,359,447
(‘‘the ’447 patent’’) and 5,761,229 (‘‘the
’229 patent’’). The complaint further
alleges that an industry in the United
States exists as required by subsection
(a)(2) of section 337. The complaint
names a single respondent, Emcore
Corporation (‘‘Emcore’’) of Albuquerque,
New Mexico.
On December 7, 2009, the
Commission issued notice of its
determination not to review the
presiding administrative law judge’s
(‘‘ALJ’s’’) initial determination (‘‘ID’’)
granting Avago’s motion for summary
determination on ownership of the
asserted patents.
On March 12, 2010, the ALJ issued his
final ID finding a violation of section
337 by Emcore by reason of
infringement of one or more of claims 1,
2, 3, and 5 of the ’447 patent. The ALJ
found no violation of section 337 with
respect to the ’229 patent. He also
issued his recommendation on remedy
and bonding during the period of
Presidential review. On March 29, 2010,
Emcore filed a petition for review of the
final ID. The Commission investigative
attorney (‘‘IA’’) and Avago filed
responses to the petition on April 6,
2010. On May 13, 2010, the Commission
issued notice of its determination not to
review the ALJ’s final ID finding a
violation of section 337, and requested
written submissions on the issues of
remedy, the public interest, and
bonding from the parties and interested
non-parties. 75 FR 28060–61 (May 19,
2010).
On May 24 and June 1, 2010,
respectively, complainant Avago,
respondent Emcore, and the IA filed
briefs and reply briefs on the issues for
which the Commission requested
written submissions.
The Commission has made its
determination on the issues of remedy,
the public interest, and bonding. The
Commission has determined that the
appropriate form of relief is both: (1) A
limited exclusion order prohibiting the
unlicensed entry of optoelectronic
devices, components thereof, and
products containing the same that are
covered by one or more of claims 1, 2,
3 and 5 of the ’447 patent, where the
infringing optoelectronic devices,
components thereof, and products
containing the same are manufactured

abroad by or on behalf of, or are
imported by or on behalf of, Emcore, or
any of its affiliated companies, parents,
subsidiaries, licensees, contractors, or
other related business entities, or
successors or assigns; and (2) a cease
and desist order prohibiting Emcore
from conducting any of the following
activities in the United States:
importing, selling, marketing,
advertising, distributing, offering for
sale, transferring (except for
exportation), and soliciting U.S. agents
or distributors for, optoelectronic
devices, components thereof, and
products containing the same that are
covered by one or more of claims 1, 2,
3, and 5 of the ’447 patent.
The Commission further determined
that the public interest factors
enumerated in section 337(d)(1) (19
U.S.C. 1337(d)(1)) do not preclude
issuance of the limited exclusion order
or the cease and desist order. Finally,
the Commission determined that a three
(3) percent bond of the entered value of
the covered products is required to
permit temporary importation during
the period of Presidential review (19
U.S.C. *1337(j)). The Commission’s
orders and opinion were delivered to
the President and to the United States
Trade Representative on the day of their
issuance.
The Commission has terminated this
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 § 210.50 of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure (19 CFR 210.50).
By order of the Commission.

Organizations
AGENCY: National Institute of
Corrections, U.S. Department of Justice.
ACTION: Solicitation for Cooperative
Agreement.
SUMMARY: The National Institute of
Corrections (NIC) is soliciting proposals
from organizations, groups, or
individuals to enter into a cooperative
agreement for an eight-month period to
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 220001
begin in September 2010. Work under
this agreement will continue NIC’s High
Performance Correctional Organizations
Project that has been developed over the
past four years. This project will
consolidate the work into a guidebook

The project funded under this
cooperative agreement will continue
and extend the work of Building High
Performance Correctional Organizations
(BHPCO) and other NIC projects.
Intended outcome: The intended
outcome for this project will include
creating a guidebook for jails,
community corrections and prisons;
developing ways to address agency
inefficiencies that result from the lack of
a holistic and integrated perspective;
establishing a core set of values or
guiding principles that agencies can
apply to correctional disciplines to
enhance business practices; improving
organizational performance by assessing
strengths, weaknesses, opportunities,
resources and threats; prioritizing goals
and objectives; and containing costs
associated with operating correctional
agencies and systems.
DATES: Applications must be received
by 4 p.m. (EDT) on Monday, August 2,
2010. Selection of the successful
applicant and notification of review
results will be announced to all
applicants by September 30, 2010.

Project Goals: The BHPCO Guidebook
is a compendium of advice and best
practice guidance that inform higher
performance in correctional institutions.
Its intended audience includes
managers, executives, supervisors, and
staff personnel vested in success and
continuous improvement, contributing
to a just and humane society through
their work in safe, functional,
correctional facilities. At a minimum,
the Guidebook—a series of stand-alone
issuances that can be compiled as
chapters in a larger volume—provides
credible, easily accessible reference
material in a variety of areas in which
correctional administrators are most
vulnerable, where desired and current
state gaps are at their widest, and where
system-wide competency needs are
defined. Because the variety of
institutions is broad and the complexity
of the myriad systems influencing
performance is unique to individual
cases, material presented in the guide
cannot be expected to satisfy all endstate situational solutions. Instead, it
offers current best practice advice,
assessment, guidance, learning, and
resource direction, enabling the
foundation of a learning culture and a
high performance mindset.
The recipient of the award under this
cooperative agreement will: (1)
Coordinate chapters of the guidebook on
leadership, assessments, intervention,
change management and other related
topics; (2) schedule and provide
logistics for one face-to-face meeting
(may also include stipend fees) for NIC
selected guidebook team members of up
to ten members; (3) compile an
information library of resources and
case studies from organizations going
through organizational change; (4)
provide the guidebook in hardcopy and
electronic Word 2003 or higher format;
(5) create learning objectives in
preparation for a second cycle of the
guidebook project to train pilot
participants on the prototype
guidebook; (6) refine assessment tools
previously developed for this project
linking assessments to interventions; (7)
identify any additional information and/
or language that will enhance cohesion
of the guidebook for audience member’s
consumption; and (8) become familiar
with Baldrige criteria.
Background: Through a number of
prior cooperative agreements, NIC has
been developing a definition,
identifying characteristics of a high
performing correctional organization
(HPCO) and developing assessment
tools for an HPCO. During 2006, NIC
sponsored a workgroup of subject matter
experts. The group identified nine
categories or core guiding principles

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the U.S. International Trade
Commission has terminated the above-captioned investigation with a
finding of violation of section 337, and has issued a limited exclusion
order and cease and desist order directed against respondent Emcore
Corporation (``Emcore'') of Albuquerque, New Mexico.

on this matter can be obtained by contacting the Commission's TDD
terminal on (202) 205-1810.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation
on March 10, 2009 based on a complaint filed on February 3, 2009, by
Avago Technologies Fiber IP (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. of Singapore; Avago
Technologies General IP (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. of Singapore; and Avago
Technologies Ltd. of San Jose, California (collectively, ``Avago''). 74
FR 10278-79 (March 10, 2009). The complaint, as supplemented, alleges
violations of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended, 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 optoelectronic devices, components thereof, or products
containing the same by reason of infringement of certain claims of U.S.
Patent Nos. 5,359,447 (``the '447 patent'') and 5,761,229 (``the '229
patent''). The complaint further alleges that an industry in the United
States exists as required by subsection (a)(2) of section 337. The
complaint names a single respondent, Emcore Corporation (``Emcore'') of
Albuquerque, New Mexico.
On December 7, 2009, the Commission issued notice of its
determination not to review the presiding administrative law judge's
(``ALJ's'') initial determination (``ID'') granting Avago's motion for
summary determination on ownership of the asserted patents.
On March 12, 2010, the ALJ issued his final ID finding a violation
of section 337 by Emcore by reason of infringement of one or more of
claims 1, 2, 3, and 5 of the '447 patent. The ALJ found no violation of
section 337 with respect to the '229 patent. He also issued his
recommendation on remedy and bonding during the period of Presidential
review. On March 29, 2010, Emcore filed a petition for review of the
final ID. The Commission investigative attorney (``IA'') and Avago
filed responses to the petition on April 6, 2010. On May 13, 2010, the
Commission issued notice of its determination not to review the ALJ's
final ID finding a violation of section 337, and requested written
submissions on the issues of remedy, the public interest, and bonding
from the parties and interested non-parties. 75 FR 28060-61 (May 19,
2010).
On May 24 and June 1, 2010, respectively, complainant Avago,
respondent Emcore, and the IA filed briefs and reply briefs on the
issues for which the Commission requested written submissions.
The Commission has made its determination on the issues of remedy,
the public interest, and bonding. The Commission has determined that
the appropriate form of relief is both: (1) A limited exclusion order
prohibiting the unlicensed entry of optoelectronic devices, components
thereof, and products containing the same that are covered by one or
more of claims 1, 2, 3 and 5 of the '447 patent, where the infringing
optoelectronic devices, components thereof, and products containing the
same are manufactured
[[Page 41892]]
abroad by or on behalf of, or are imported by or on behalf of, Emcore,
or any of its affiliated companies, parents, subsidiaries, licensees,
contractors, or other related business entities, or successors or
assigns; and (2) a cease and desist order prohibiting Emcore from
conducting any of the following activities in the United States:
importing, selling, marketing, advertising, distributing, offering for
sale, transferring (except for exportation), and soliciting U.S. agents
or distributors for, optoelectronic devices, components thereof, and
products containing the same that are covered by one or more of claims
1, 2, 3, and 5 of the '447 patent.
The Commission further determined that the public interest factors
enumerated in section 337(d)(1) (19 U.S.C. 1337(d)(1)) do not preclude
issuance of the limited exclusion order or the cease and desist order.
Finally, the Commission determined that a three (3) percent bond of the
entered value of the covered products is required to permit temporary
importation during the period of Presidential review (19 U.S.C.
*1337(j)). The Commission's orders and opinion were delivered to the
President and to the United States Trade Representative on the day of
their issuance.
The Commission has terminated this 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 Sec. 210.50 of
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.50).
