Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 116 / Monday, June 19, 2017 / Notices
limited exclusion order against all
respondents and the entry of a cease and
desist order against Basic Medical, that
the public interest factors do not weigh
against granting these remedial orders,
and that bonding should be set at 100
percent of the entered value of the
infringing products.
The Commission finds that the
statutory requirements of section
337(g)(1) (19 U.S.C. 1337(g)(1)) and
Commission Rule 210.16(a)(1) (19 CFR
210.16(a)(1)) are met with respect to all
respondents. Pursuant to section
337(g)(1) (19 U.S.C. 1337(g)(1)) and
Commission Rule 210.16(c) (19 CFR
210.16(c)), the Commission presumes
the facts alleged in the complaint to be
true. The Commission finds that
Laerdal’s amended complaint
sufficiently alleged a violation of section
337 by Medsource International,
Medsource Factory, and Basic Medical
with respect to claim 1 of the ’058
patent and the ’656 mark. The
Commission, however, finds that even
when the factual allegations of Laerdal’s
amended complaint are presumed true,
Laerdal has not shown a violation of
section 337 with respect to the ’023
copyright, the ’026 copyright, the trade
dresses, or any of the other respondents.
The Commission has determined that
the appropriate form of relief in this
investigation is: (a) A limited exclusion
order against Medsource International,
Medsource Factory, and Basic Medical
prohibiting the unlicensed entry of
cervical collars that infringe claim 1 of
the ’058 patent and CPR masks that
infringe the ’656 mark; and (b) an order
that Basic Medical cease and desist from
importing, selling, offering for sale,
marketing, advertising, distributing,
offering for sale, transferring (except for
exportation), or soliciting U.S. agents or
distributors of imported cervical collars
that infringe claim 1 of the ’058 patent
and CPR masks that infringe the ’656
mark. The Commission has further
determined that the public interest
factors enumerated in section 337(g)(1)
(19 U.S.C. 1337(g)(1)) do not preclude
the issuance of the limited exclusion
order and cease and desist order.
Finally, the Commission has determined
that the bond for importation during the
period of Presidential review shall be in
the amount of 100 percent of the entered
value of the imported subject articles of
the respondents. The investigation is
terminated.
The Commission’s orders and opinion
were delivered to the President and the
United States Trade Representative on
the day of their issuance.
The authority for the Commission’s
determination is contained in section
337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as

appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms
of information technology, e.g.,
permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Overview of this information
collection:
1. Type of Information Collection: Site
visits, which will include individual
and group interviews.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection:
Evaluation of the Bureau of Justice
Assistance Sexual Assault Kit Initiative.
3. The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
The applicable component within the
U.S. Department of Justice is the
National Institute of Justice in the Office
of Justice Programs.
4. Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Sexual assault kits (SAKs) are
invaluable tools used in investigations
to collect evidence such as DNA and to
document injuries from alleged victims;
this evidence in turn is used to identify
and prosecute offenders and to
exonerate innocent suspects. Despite the
importance of SAKs, backlogs of
unsubmitted and untested kits have
emerged in jurisdictions across the
country (e.g., Peterson and Hickman,
2005; Strom et al., 2009). The Bureau of
Justice Assistance (BJA) established the
Sexual Assault Kit Initiative (SAKI) to
provide assistance to jurisdictions who
are addressing these issues. In FY 2015,
20 sites were funded through SAKI to
engage in reforms intended to improve
the national response to sexual assault
cases.
The objectives of the current study are
to conduct an evaluability assessment of
all 20 FY2015 sites to determine their
readiness to participate in an evaluation
of the SAKI and to develop a
comprehensive and rigorous evaluation
plan to ultimately determine the extent
to which SAKI reforms have resulted in
intended (and/or unintended) system
changes. The evaluability assessment
data collection process will include
visits to the 20 sites, which will be
comprised of individual and group
interviews with a maximum of 20
respondents per site.
The types of respondents who will be
asked to respond to requests for
interviews will include the SAKI Site
Coordinator, representatives from
sectors involved in working groups (e.g.,
law enforcement, forensic medical
personnel, forensic laboratory
personnel, prosecutors, victim
advocates, victim treatment providers),
specialized staff (e.g., cold case

detectives, police administrative
support, victim compensation staff).
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The estimated average burden
for a respondent completing a site visit
interview is approximately 60 minutes.
A maximum of 20 respondents will be
interviewed, either individually or in
groups, at each of the 20 sites.
Therefore, the total number of estimated
respondents for the entire evaluability
site visit data collection is 400 (20 sites
× 20 respondents per site).
6. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The maximum estimated
public burden associated with this
collection is 400 hours. It is estimated
that each of the 400 site visit interviews
will take 60 minutes to complete (400
respondents × 60 minutes = 400 hours).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The CPS has been the principal
source of the official Government
statistics on employment and
unemployment for over 75 years. The
labor force information gathered
through the survey is of paramount
importance in keeping track of the
economic health of the Nation. The
survey is the only source of monthly
data on total employment and
unemployment. The Employment
Situation news release contains data
from this survey and is designated as a
Principal Federal Economic Indicator
(PFEI). Moreover, the survey also yields
data on the characteristics of persons
not in the labor force. The CPS data are
used monthly, in conjunction with data
from other sources, to analyze the extent
to which, and with what success, the
various components of the American
population are participating in the
economic life of the Nation.
The labor force data gathered through
the CPS are provided to users in the
greatest detail possible, in conjunction
with the demographic information
obtained in the survey. In brief, the
labor force data can be broken down by
sex, age, race, ethnicity, marital status,
family composition, educational level,
certification and licensing status,
disability status, and other
characteristics. Through such
breakdowns, one can focus on the
employment situation of specific
population groups as well as on general
trends in employment and
unemployment. Information of this type
can be obtained only through
demographically oriented surveys such
as the CPS.

6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: The maximum estimated public burden associated
with this collection is 400 hours. It is estimated that each of the 400
site visit interviews will take 60 minutes to complete (400 respondents
x 60 minutes = 400 hours).
