can involve either a Federal or State
fishery. Buybacks can be funded via a
long-term loan from the Federal
government to the fishery (industryfunded buybacks), to be repaid by the
industry by post-buyback landing fees,
or funded from appropriations (nonindustry funded) or other non-loan
sources of funds. Programs involving
industry-financed loans are authorized
by section 1111 of title XI of the
Merchant Marine Act, 1936.
NOAA National Marine Fisheries
Service (NMFS) established programs to
reduce excess fishing capacity by paying
fishermen to surrender their vessels/
permits. The information collected by
NMFS involves the submission of
buyback requests by industry,
submission of bids, referenda of fishery
participants and reporting of collection
of fees to repay buyback loans. For
buybacks involving State-managed
fisheries, the State may be involved in
developing the buyback plan and
complying with other information
requirements. NMFS requests
information from participating buyback
participants to track repayments of the
loans as well as ensure accurate
management and monitoring of the
loans. The fees for recordkeeping and
reporting requirements at 50 CFR parts
600.1013 through 600.1017 form the
basis for the collection of information.
Information collections associated
with loan creation were removed from
the 2021 renewal because no new loans
are anticipated moving forward, but the
Federal Register notice published on
May 14, 2024 (89 FR 41947) included
the burden for these removed activities.
That error has been corrected in this
notice.
Affected Public: Businesses.
Frequency: Monthly and annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
Obtain or Retain Benefits.
Legal Authority: Magnuson-Stevens

The United States Patent and
Trademark Office (USPTO) will submit
the following information collection
request to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review and clearance
in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, on or after the
date of publication of this notice. The
USPTO invites comments on this
information collection renewal, which
helps the USPTO assess the impact of
its information collection requirements
and minimize the public’s reporting
burden. Public comments were
previously requested via the Federal
Register on July 10, 2024 during a 60day comment period (89 FR 56739).
This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comment.
Agency: United States Patent and
Trademark Office, Department of
Commerce.
Title: Trademark Petitions.
OMB Control Number: 0651–0061.
Needs and Uses: The United States
Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)
administers the Trademark Act (Act), 15
U.S.C. 1051 et seq., which provides for
the registration of trademarks, service
marks, collective membership marks,
and certification marks. Individuals and
businesses that use or intend to use
such marks in commerce may file an
application to register their marks with
the USPTO.
This information collection covers
various trademark-related
communications to the USPTO,
including letters of protest, requests to
make special, responses to petition
inquiry letters, petitions to make
special, requests to restore a filing date,
and requests for reinstatement. This
information collection also incorporates
petitions for ex parte expungement or
reexamination (PTO–2312). Ex parte
expungement and reexamination

(TMA), Public Law 116–260 (Dec. 27,
2020), to cancel, either in whole or in
part, registered marks for which the
required use in commerce was not
made. The burden estimate for petitions
for ex parte expungement or
reexamination was previously contained
in OMB Control No. 0651–0086,
Changes to Implement Provisions of the
Trademark Modernization Act, but is
being transferred into this information
collection for efficiency. Finally, this
information collection consolidates into
a single burden estimate the burden for
responses to petition inquiry letters
(PTO–2305), which was previously
reflected in both OMB Control No.
0651–0086 and this information
collection.
The information covered in this
collection is used by the public for a
variety of private business purposes
related to establishing and enforcing
trademark rights. Information relating to
the registration of a trademark is made
available to the public by the USPTO.
However, the release of information in
a letter of protest is controlled and may
be available only upon request.
Forms:
• PTO–2303 (Letter of Protest)
• PTO–2304 (Request to Make Special)
• PTO–2305 (Response to Petition to
Director Inquiry Letter)
• PTO–2306 (Petition to Make Special)
• PTO–2307 (Request to Restore Filing
Date)
• PTO–2308 (Request for

or Reexamination Form)
Type of Review: Extension and
revision of a currently approved

obtain or retain benefits.
Frequency: On occasion.
Estimated Number of Annual
Respondents: 5,813 respondents.
Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 5,813 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: The
USPTO estimates that the responses in
this information collection will take the
public approximately between 40

complete. This includes the time to
gather the necessary information, create
the document, and submit the
completed request to the USPTO.
