Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 67 / Tuesday, April 7, 2020 / Notices
All catch would be attributed to the
appropriate commercial fishing quota.
For a vessel fishing on a groundfish
sector trip, all catch of groundfish stocks
allocated to sectors would be deducted
from the vessel’s sector’s annual catch
entitlement (ACE). Once the ACE for a
stock has been reached in a sector,
vessels would no longer be allowed to
fish in that stock area unless the sector
acquired additional ACE for the stock in
question. For common pool vessels, all
groundfish catch would be counted
toward the appropriate trimester total
allowable catch (TAC). Common pool
vessels would be exempt from
possession and trip limits on EFP trips
when directed for sampling by the
Center, but would still be subject to
trimester TAC closures.
If approved, the Center may request
minor modifications and extensions to
the EFP throughout the year. EFP
modifications and extensions may be
granted without further notice if they
are deemed essential to facilitate
completion of the proposed research
and have minimal impact that does not
change the scope of the initially
approved EFP request. Any fishing
activity conducted outside the scope of
the exempted fishing activity would be
prohibited.

BILLING CODE 3510–16–P
The United States Patent and
Trademark Office has issued an order
granting interim extension for a oneyear interim extension of the term of
U.S. Patent No. 7,534,790.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ali
Salimi by telephone at (571) 272–0909;
by mail marked to his attention and
addressed to the Commissioner for
Patents, Mail Stop Hatch-Waxman PTE,
P.O. Box 1450, Alexandria, VA 22313–
1450; by fax marked to his attention at
SUMMARY:
(571) 273–0909; or by email to
ali.salimi@uspto.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
156 of Title 35, United States Code,
generally provides that the term of a
patent may be extended for a period of
up to five years if the patent claims a
product, or a method of making or using
a product, that has been subject to
certain defined regulatory review, and
that the patent may be extended for
interim periods of up to one year if the
regulatory review is anticipated to
extend beyond the expiration date of the
patent.
On February 5, 2020, Correvio
International Sa`rl, the patent owner of
record, timely filed an application
under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5) for a second
interim extension of the term of U.S.
Patent No. 7,534,790. The patent claims
the human drug product, vernakalant
hydrochloride. The application for
patent term extension indicates that
New Drug Application (NDA) 22–034
was submitted to the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) on December 19,
2006.
Review of the patent term extension
application indicates that, except for
permission to market or use the product
commercially, the subject patent would
be eligible for an extension of the patent
term under 35 U.S.C. 156, and that the
patent should be extended for one year
as required by 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5)(B).
Because the regulatory review period
will continue beyond the once-extended
expiration date of the patent, March 31,
2020, interim extension of the patent
term under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5) is
appropriate.
An interim extension under 35 U.S.C.
156(d)(5) of the term of U.S. Patent No.
7,534,790 is granted for a period of one
year from the extended expiration date
of the patent.

Intent To Prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement and Public Scoping
Meeting for Dow Chemical Company’s
Harris Reservoir Expansion Project,
Brazoria County, Texas (Department of
the Army Permit SWG–2016–01027)
U.S. Department of the Army,
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, DoD.
ACTION: Notice of intent.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (Corps), Galveston District,
has received a permit application for a
U.S. Department of the Army (DA)
permit pursuant to Section 10 of the
Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 and
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act from
Dow Chemical Company (Dow) (SWG–
2016–01027) for the Harris Reservoir
Expansion Project (proposed Project).
The proposed Project site is located
between the Brazos River and Oyster
Creek approximately 8 miles northwest
of the City of Angleton in Brazoria
County, Texas. The primary federal
involvement associated with the
proposed action (proposed Project) is
the discharge of dredged or fill material
into waters of the United States (U.S.),
and the construction of structures and/
or work that may affect navigable
waters. Federal authorizations for the
Project would constitute a major federal
action. Based on the potential impacts,
both individually and cumulatively, the
Corps intends to prepare an
environmental impact statement (EIS) in
compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to
render a final decision on the permit
applications. The Corps’ decision will
be to issue, issue with modification, or
deny DA permits for the proposed
action. The EIS will assess the potential

social, economic, and environmental
impacts of the construction and
operation of the proposed project, and is
intended to be sufficient in scope to
address federal, state, and local
requirements; environmental and
socioeconomic issues concerning the
proposed action; and permit reviews.
ADDRESSES: Written comments
regarding the proposed EIS scope
should be addressed to Mr. Jayson
Hudson, USACE, Galveston District,
Regulatory Branch, P.O. Box 1229,

Emailed comments, including
attachments, should be provided in
.doc, .docx, .pdf or .txt formats.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
information about this project, to be
included on the mailing list for future
updates and meeting announcements, or
to receive a copy of the Draft EIS when
it is issued, contact Mr. Jayson Hudson,
at the Corps at (409) 766–3108, email
address SWG201601027@
usace.army.mil, or the address provided
above.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Corps
Galveston District intends to prepare an
EIS for the proposed Harris Reservoir
Expansion Project located in Brazoria
County, Texas. The proposed Project
would include the construction of a
1,929-acre impoundment with a
nominal storage capacity of 50,000 acrefeet, an intake and pump station to
divert Dow’s existing surface water
rights from the Brazos River, an outlet
to Oyster Creek, and an emergency
spillway. The Project would also
include floodplain enhancements on
Oyster Creek, stream restoration, and
temporary construction staging and
laydown areas. As part of the
Department of the Army permit
application process, a public notice was
issued on March 2, 2018. The purpose
of the public notice was to initiate an
early public scoping process to solicit
comments and information from the
public as well as state and federal
agencies to better enable us to make a
reasonable decision on factors affecting
the public interest. All comments
received to date, including those
provided for review during the public
notice comment period, will be
considered by the Galveston District
during EIS preparation.
