Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) is
required to document and identify any
potential risks associated with
collecting this information. There is no
assurance of confidentiality provided to
the respondents.
The burden estimates provided in
response to Item 12 above are based
upon definitive proposals reported by
DHS and its Components to the Federal
Procurement Data System (FPDS) for
Fiscal Year 2016. No program changes
occurred and there have been no
changes to the information being
collected. However, the burden was
adjusted to reflect an agency adjustment
increase of 103,600 in the number of
respondents within DHS for Fiscal Year
2016, as well as an increase in the
average hourly wage rate. In addition,
the average response per respondent
went from 7 to 3.5 per response, a
difference of 3.5 hours. The change is a
result of the DHS Heads of Contracting
Activities’ reassessment of the response
time required for each of the applicable
clauses.
This is an extension of a currently
approved collection, 1600–0005. DHS
previously published this ICR in the
Federal Register on Tuesday, March 13,
2018 at 83 FR 10865 for a 60-day public
comment period, and is soliciting public
comment for another 30 days. OMB is
particularly interested in comments
which:
1. 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;
2. 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;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. 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 submissions
of responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

on April 18, 2018, based on a complaint
filed by Jump Rope Systems, LLC of
Louisville, Colorado (‘‘Complainant’’).
83 FR 17190 (Apr. 18, 2018). The

complaint, as supplemented, alleges
violations of section 337 of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C.
1337, based upon the importation into
the United States, the sale for
importation, and the sale within the
United States after importation of
certain jump rope systems by reason of
infringement of certain claims of U.S.
Patent Nos. 7,789,809 and 8,136,208.
The notice of investigation named one
respondent: Suzhou Everise Fitness Co.,
Ltd. of Jiangsu, China (‘‘Respondent’’).
The Office of Unfair Import
Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) also was named
as a party to the investigation.
The complaint and notice of
investigation were served on
Respondent on April 13, 2018.
However, Respondent did not respond
to the complaint or notice of
investigation.
On May 31, 2018, Complainant filed
an amended motion for an order to
show cause directing Respondent to
demonstrate why it should not be found
in default for failing to respond to the
complaint and notice of investigation, or
otherwise participate in the
investigation. On June 6, 2018, OUII
filed a response, supporting the motion.
No other responses were filed.
On June 12, 2018, the presiding
administrative law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued
Order No. 5, ordering Respondent to
show why it should not be found in
default. No response was filed.
On July 10, 2018, the ALJ issued the
subject ID (Order No. 6), finding
Respondent in default under
Commission Rule 210.16 (19 CFR
210.16) and terminating the proceedings
before the ALJ in their entirety. No
petitions for review were filed.
The Commission has determined not
to review the subject ID. Section
337(g)(1) (35 U.S.C. 1337(g)(1)) and
Commission Rule 210.16(c) (19 CFR
210.16(c)) authorize the Commission to
order relief against a respondent found
in default, unless, after considering the
public interest, it finds that such relief
should not issue.
In connection with the final
disposition of this investigation, the
Commission may (1) issue an order that
could result in the exclusion of the
subject articles from entry into the
United States, and/or (2) issue a cease
and desist order that could result in
Respondent being required to cease and
desist from engaging in unfair acts in
the importation and sale of such
articles. Accordingly, the Commission is
interested in receiving written
submissions that address the form of
remedy, if any, that should be ordered.
