The Commission has terminated the investigation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation on December 7, 2011, based on a complaint filed by VirnetX. 76 FR VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:22 Aug 23, 2012 Jkt 226001 76435–36. The complaint alleges a violation 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 devices with secure communication capabilities, components thereof, and products containing the same by reason of infringement of certain claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,051,181 (‘‘the ’181 patent’’). The complaint further alleges the existence of a domestic industry. The Commission’s notice of investigation named Apple Inc. (‘‘Apple’’) of Cupertino, California as the sole respondent. No Commission investigative attorney is participating in this investigation. On April 30, 2012, Apple moved to terminate the investigation based on VirnetX’s lack of standing pursuant to Commission rule 210.21(a)(1). VirnetX filed an opposition to the motion. The ALJ issued the subject ID on July 18, 2012, granting Apple’s motion for termination of the investigation. He found that VirnetX does not possess all substantial rights in the ’181 patent, and therefore lacks standing to assert the patent in this investigation. On the same date, the ALJ issued Order No. 14 denying VirnetX’s renewed motion to amend the complaint and notice of investigation to add SAIC as a complainant. VirnetX petitioned for review of the ALJ’s ID and Order No. 14 on July 27, 2012, and Apple filed a response in opposition on August 3, 2012. Having reviewed the record including the parties’ briefing, the Commission has determined not to review the ALJ’s ID or Order No. 14, and has terminated the 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 sections 210.21 and 210.42(h) of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, 19 CFR 210.21, 210.42(h). Issued: August 20, 2012. By order of the Commission. Lisa R. Barton, Acting Secretary to the Commission.

On August 31, 2011, the Court entered and approved the Second and Third Amendments to the Consent Decree. This Fourth Amendment to the Consent Decree proposes four revisions to the consent decree. They are: (1) A transfer of uncompleted or ongoing responsibilities for the Philadelphia Refinery to PES R&M LLC; (2) an extension of the time for achieving final SO2 and NOx emissions limits at Philadelphia’s 868 FCCU from 2014 until 2016; (3) allowance of the emissions reductions achieved by reaching the final SO2 and NOx limits on the 868 FCCU or achieved from the VerDate Mar<15>2010 15:22 Aug 23, 2012 Jkt 226001 permanent shut down of the Marcus Hook Refinery (to the extent the Philadelphia and Marcus Hook Refineries are determined to be a single source) to be used as credits or offsets in any PSD, major non-attainment and or minor NSR permits provided that the new or modified units meet BACT; and (4) a requirement to install, operate and maintain fence line monitoring of refinery pollutants.

PES R&M LLC will step into the shoes of Sunoco for all injunctive relief requirements that have not yet been fulfilled or that are ongoing.
