* The pelagic shelf rockfish (PSR) species group has been changed to ‘‘dusky rockfish’’ in some NMFS publications, such as the 2012 and
2013 groundfish harvest specifications for the GOA (77 FR 10669, February 23, 2012). The North Pacific Fishery Management Council recommended the removal of widow and yellowtail rockfish from the PSR species group at its October 2011 meeting, leaving the single species,
dusky rockfish. NMFS intends to propose GOA fishery management plan and regulatory amendments to dissolve the PSR species group and
substitute a description of the dusky rockfish target fishery, and revise the description of the ‘‘other rockfish’’ fishery in the GOA fishery management plan to include widow and yellowtail rockfish.
** NMFS uses the average annual price when no landings are reported.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
The purpose of this collection is to
cover information requirements related
to civil actions and claims involving
current and former employees of the
United States Patent and Trademark
Office (USPTO). The rules for these
legal processes may be found under 37
CFR Part 104, which outlines
procedures for service of process,
demands for employee testimony and
PO 00000
Frm 00009
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

production of documents in legal
proceedings, reports of unauthorized
testimony, employee indemnification,
and filing claims against the USPTO
under the Federal Tort Claims Act (28
U.S.C. 2672) and the corresponding
Department of Justice regulations (28
CFR part 14). The public may also
petition the USPTO Office of General
Counsel under 37 CFR 104.3 to waive or
suspend these rules in extraordinary
cases.
The procedures under 37 CFR part
104 ensure that service of process
intended for current and former
employees of the USPTO is handled
properly. The USPTO will only accept
service of process for an employee
acting in an official capacity. This
collection is necessary so that
respondents or their representatives can
serve a summons or complaint on the
USPTO, demand employee testimony
and documents related to a legal
proceeding, or file a claim under the
Federal Tort Claims Act. Respondents
may also petition the USPTO to waive
or suspend these rules for legal
processes. This collection is also
necessary so that current and former
USPTO employees may properly
forward service and demands to the
Office of General Counsel, report
unauthorized testimony, and request
indemnification. The USPTO covers
current employees as respondents under
this information collection even though
their responses do not require approval
under the Paperwork Reduction Act. In
those instances where both current and
former employees may respond to the
USPTO, the agency estimates that the
number of respondents will be small.
There are no forms provided by the
USPTO for this collection. For filing
claims under the Federal Tort Claims
Act, the public may use Standard Form
95 ‘‘Claim for Damage, Injury, or
Death,’’ which is provided by the
Department of Justice and approved by
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) under OMB Control Number
1105–0008.
II. Method of Collection
By mail or hand delivery to the
USPTO.
III. Data
OMB Number: 0651–0046.
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households; businesses or other forprofits; not-for-profit institutions; and
the Federal Government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
299 responses per year. The USPTO
