SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:01 Jul 30, 2012
Jkt 226001
Coastal Society, has requested a
temporary deviation from the operating
regulations to accommodate the Neuse
River Keeper Foundation Sprint
Triathlon.
Under the current operating
regulations set out in 33 CFR 117.823,
the draw of the US 70 (Grayden Paul)
Bridge, at mile 0.1, over Gallants
Channel, at Beaufort, NC opens as
follows: From 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., the
draw need only open on the hour and
on the half hour; except that Monday
through Friday the bridge need not open
between the hours of 6:30 a.m. to 8 a.m.
and 4:30 p.m. to 6 p.m.; and from
10 p.m. to 6 a.m., the bridge will open
on signal.
In the closed position to vessels, the
US 70 (Grayden Paul) Bridge has a
vertical clearance of 13 feet above mean
high water.
Under this temporary deviation, the
drawbridge will be closed to vessels
requiring an opening from 12:30 p.m. to
3 p.m. on Saturday, September 29, 2012.
There are no alternate routes for vessels
transiting this section of Gallants
Channel and the drawbridge will be able
to open in the event of an emergency.
The Coast Guard has carefully
coordinated the restrictions with
commercial and recreational waterway
users. The Coast Guard will inform all
users of the waterway through our Local
and Broadcast Notice to Mariners of the
closure periods for the bridge so that
vessels can arrange their transits to
minimize any impacts caused by the
temporary deviation.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the draw must return to its original
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the designated time period. This
deviation from the operating regulations
is authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
Dated: July 23, 2012.

District.

Implementation of Statute of
Limitations Provisions for Office
Disciplinary Proceedings
United States Patent and
Trademark Office, Commerce.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The Leahy-Smith America
Invents Act (AIA) requires that
disciplinary proceedings before the
United States Patent and Trademark
Office (Office or USPTO) be commenced
not later than the earlier of either the
date that is 10 years after the date on
which the misconduct forming the basis
of the proceeding occurred, or one year
from the date on which the misconduct
forming the basis of the proceeding was
made known to an officer or employee
of the Office, as prescribed in the
regulations governing disciplinary
proceedings. The Office is adopting
procedural rules which: Specify that a
disciplinary complaint shall be filed
within one year after the date on which
the Office of Enrollment and Discipline
(OED) Director receives a grievance
forming the basis of the complaint, and
in no event more than ten years after the
date on which the misconduct forming
the basis for the proceeding occurred;
define grievance as a written submission
from any source received by the OED
Director that presents possible grounds
for discipline of a specified practitioner;
and clarify that the one-year time frame
for filing a complaint may be tolled by
written agreement.
The Office will evaluate these
procedures in the future to determine
their effectiveness. If the new one-year
time frame proves to be administratively
unworkable or impedes the
effectiveness of the disciplinary process,
the Office may issue a new notice of
proposed rulemaking.
DATES: Effective Date: The changes in
this final rule are effective on August
30, 2012.
