FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Clint Gerdine, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, U.S. International Trade Commission, 500 E Street SW., Washington, DC 20436, telephone (202) 708–2310. Copies of non-confidential documents filed in connection with this investigation are or will be available for inspection during official business hours (8:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.) in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, 500 E Street SW., Washington, DC 20436, telephone (202) 205–2000. General information concerning the Commission may also be obtained by accessing its Internet server at https://www.usitc.gov. The public record for this investigation may be viewed on the Commission’s electronic docket (EDIS) at https:// edis.usitc.gov. Hearing-impaired persons are advised that information on this matter can be obtained by contacting the Commission’s TDD terminal on (202) 205–1810. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this enforcement proceeding on May 24, 2013, based on an enforcement complaint filed on behalf of BriarTek IP, Inc. (‘‘BriarTek’’) of Alexandria, Virginia. 78 FR 31576– 77. The complaint alleged violations of the Consent Order issued in the underlying investigation by the continued practice of prohibited activities such as selling or offering for sale within the United States after importation accused two-way global satellite communication devices, system, or components thereof that infringe one or more of claims 1, 2, 5, 10–12, and 34 of U.S. Patent No. 7,991,380 (‘‘the ’380 patent’’). The Commission’s notice of institution of enforcement proceeding named DeLorme as respondents. 78 FR 31577. The Office of Unfair Import Investigations was also named as a party. Id. Claims 5, 11–12, and 34 have been terminated from the enforcement proceeding. On March 7, 2014, the presiding administrative law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued an enforcement initial determination (‘‘EID’’) finding a violation of the Consent Order. The ALJ concluded that, after issuance of the consent order, DeLorme has sold or offered for sale within the United States after importation accused InReach 1.5 VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:01 Jun 12, 2014 Jkt 232001 devices that infringe, via inducement, claims 1 and 2 of the ’380 patent. The ALJ also found no induced infringement and therefore no violation of the Consent Order with respect to accused InReach SE devices. The ALJ also found no induced infringement and therefore no violation of the Consent Order with respect to any accused InReach devices sold before, and activated after, the effective date of the Consent Order. The ALJ also recommended a civil penalty of $637,500 against DeLorme as an enforcement measure for the violation. On March 20, 2014, BriarTek, DeLorme, and the Commission investigative attorney (‘‘IA’’) each filed a petition for review of the EID. On March 27, 2014, BriarTek, DeLorme, and the IA each filed a response to opposing petitions. On April 23, 2014, the Commission issued notice of its determination to review the EID in part, and on review, the Commission determined to reversein-part and vacate-in-part the EID’s findings. Specifically, the Commission determined not to review the ALJ’s finding of a violation of the Consent Order with respect to the infringing InReach 1.5 devices. The Commission also determined to reverse the ALJ’s finding of no induced infringement and no violation of the Consent Order with respect to accused InReach SE devices, which resulted in a finding of a violation of the Consent Order with respect to these InReach devices. The Commission also determined to reverse the ALJ’s finding of no induced infringement with respect to accused InReach devices that were sold before, and activated after, the effective date of the Consent Order. This action did not change the ALJ’s finding of no violation with respect to these InReach devices sold before, and activated after, the effective date of the Consent Order. The Commission further determined to vacate the portion of the ALJ’s analysis that relied on Akamai Techs., Inc. v. Limelight Networks, Inc., 692 F.3d 1301, 1305 (Fed. Cir. 2012) (en banc), cert. granted, Limelight Networks, Inc. v. Akamai Techs., Inc., 134 S. Ct. 895 (2014), to find direct infringement of claims 1 and 2 of the ’380 patent through ‘‘use’’ of the claimed system by an end user. The Commission also determined to vacate the portion of the ALJ’s analysis concerning specific intent for induced infringement of these claims based on Akamai. See EID at 85–86, 92. The Commission also requested the parties to provide briefing on the amount of the civil penalty to be imposed and on the public interest. On April 30, 2014, BriarTek, DeLorme, and the IA each filed a brief responding to the Commission’s request for written PO 00000 Frm 00060 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 33951 submissions. On May 7, 2014, the parties filed reply briefs. Having examined the record in this enforcement proceeding, including the EID and the parties’ submissions, the Commission has determined to impose a civil penalty of $6,242,500 on DeLorme for violation of the Consent Order on 227 separate days. The Commission has terminated the enforcement proceeding. 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 Part 210 of the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, 19 CFR part 210. By order of the Commission. Issued: June 9, 2014. Lisa R. Barton, Secretary to the Commission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for the Respirator Program Records information collection requirements contained in regulations 30 CFR 56.5005 and 57– 5005, which provide that, generally, whenever respiratory equipment is used, the metal or nonmetal mine operator must institute a respirator program governing selection, maintenance, training, fitting, supervision, cleaning, and use of respirators. These regulations seek to control miner exposure to harmful airborne contaminants by using engineering controls to prevent contamination and to vent or to dilute any contaminated air. The regulations include information collections related to the development of a respirator program that addresses the selection, use, and care of respirators; fit-testing records used to ensure that a respirator worn by an individual is the same brand, model, and size respirator that was worn when that individual successfully passed a fit-test; and records kept of inspection dates and findings for respirators maintained for emergency use. The mine operator uses the information to issue proper respiratory protection to miners when feasible engineering and/or administrative controls do not reduce miners’ exposures to permissible levels. The MSHA uses the information to determine compliance with the standard. Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 section 103(h) authorizes this information collection. See 30 U.S.C. 103(h). This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:01 Jun 12, 2014 Jkt 232001 cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection under Control Number 1219–0048. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3) years without renewal, and the current approval for this collection is scheduled to expire on July 31, 2014. The DOL seeks to extend PRA authorization for this information collection for three (3) more years, without any change to existing requirements. The DOL notes that existing information collection requirements submitted to the OMB receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for 
the Respirator Program Records information collection requirements 
contained in regulations 30 CFR 56.5005 and 57-5005, which provide 
that, generally, whenever respiratory equipment is used, the metal or 
nonmetal mine operator must institute a respirator program governing 
selection, maintenance, training, fitting, supervision, cleaning, and 
use of respirators. These regulations seek to control miner exposure to 
harmful airborne contaminants by using engineering controls to prevent 
contamination and to vent or to dilute any contaminated air. The 
regulations include information collections related to the development 
of a respirator program that addresses the selection, use, and care of 
respirators; fit-testing records used to ensure that a respirator worn 
by an individual is the same brand, model, and size respirator that was 
worn when that individual successfully passed a fit-test; and records 
kept of inspection dates and findings for respirators maintained for 
emergency use. The mine operator uses the information to issue proper 
respiratory protection to miners when feasible engineering and/or 
administrative controls do not reduce miners' exposures to permissible 
levels. The MSHA uses the information to determine compliance with the 
standard. Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 section 103(h) authorizes 
this information collection. See 30 U.S.C. 103(h).
    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency 
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and 
the public is generally not required to respond to an information 
collection, unless it is approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays 
a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any 
other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to 
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that 
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 
1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection 
under Control Number 1219-0048.
    OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3) 
years without renewal, and the current approval for this collection is 
scheduled to expire on July 31, 2014. The DOL seeks to extend PRA 
authorization for this information collection for three (3) more years, 
without any change to existing requirements. The DOL notes that 
existing information collection requirements submitted to the OMB 
receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. For 
additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related 
notice published in the Federal Register on February 27, 2014 (79 FR 
11128).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within 30 days of publication of this notice in 
the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate 
consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1219-0048. 
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
     Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the 
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.
