Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 191 / Tuesday, October 4, 2022 / Notices
City, MO, to inform their practices for
Impact-Based Decision Support Services
(IDSS) and to improve the information
and services it provides to members of
the Weather Enterprise. Importantly,
data collected will help assist NWS in
developing new forecaster training
modules, situational awareness
information, and best practices for
Impact-Based Decision Support with
partners. This is a necessary step in
improving risk communication among
expert groups, which, in turn, benefits
vulnerable populations who ultimately
must act quickly and safely to
adjudicate which risks pose the greatest
threat to them as the threats evolve. Data
collected from both populations will
also be used for the practical utility of
the government through semi-annual
reports to NOAA to evaluate proposed
metrics of success for completing the
grant relative to progress to data.
Conference presentations about findings
will be made to the American
Meteorological Society, National
Weather Association, and related
emergency manager conferences;
webinars of best practices and
situational awareness opportunities to
partner or NWS offices; and insights
about the challenges of communicating
and preparing the public for compound
hazards reported to peer reviewed
publications in professional journals.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit organizations; State, Local, or
Tribal government; Federal government.
Frequency: One time.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

The
USPTO is seeking public input and
guidance on proposed initiatives
directed at bolstering the robustness and
reliability of patents. These initiatives
are meant to ensure that the patent
rights granted by the USPTO fulfill their
intended purpose of furthering the
common good, incentivizing innovation,
and promoting economic prosperity.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background and the USPTO’s July 6,
2022, Letter to the FDA
On July 9, 2021, President Biden
issued an Executive Order (E.O.) on
‘‘Promoting Competition in the
American Economy,’’ 86 FR 36987 (July
14, 2021) (‘‘Competition E.O.’’). To
advance the Biden Administration’s
goals of promoting access to
prescription pharmaceuticals for
American families and increasing
competition in the marketplace, section
5(p)(vi) of the E.O. directs the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (HHS)
‘‘to help ensure that the patent system,
while incentivizing innovation, does not
also unjustifiably delay generic drug
and biosimilar competition beyond that
reasonably contemplated by applicable
law.’’ In particular, section 5(p)(vi) of
the E.O. directs the HHS Secretary,
‘‘through the Commissioner of Food and
Drugs’’ and ‘‘not later than 45 days after
the date of this order,’’ to ‘‘write a letter
to the Under Secretary of Commerce for
Intellectual Property and Director of the
United States Patent and Trademark
Office enumerating and describing any
relevant concerns of the FDA.’’
In response to the Competition E.O.,
on September 10, 2021, the FDA sent a
letter to the USPTO outlining ideas for
further engagement with the USPTO. On
July 6, 2022, the USPTO sent a
responsive letter (USPTO Letter)
discussing specific initiatives the
USPTO was exploring to further
promote robust and reliable patent
rights across all technology areas and
suggesting additional ways in which the
USPTO could work with the FDA to
ensure that our patent system properly
and adequately protects innovation
while not unnecessarily delaying
generic and biosimilar competition,
which provides more affordable
versions of pharmaceuticals for
Americans who need them. The
Competition E.O. and the letters are
available at www.uspto.gov/initiatives/
drug-pricing-initiatives.
The USPTO Letter explains that the
United States is a global leader in the
development of drugs and biologics due
to its strong patent system. Robust and
reliable patents are needed to
incentivize and protect the immense
research and development investment
