                Notice of Expiration of Trademark Registrations
                            Due to Failure to Renew

   15 U.S.C. 1059 provides that each trademark registration may be
renewed for periods of ten years from the end of the expiring period
upon payment of the prescribed fee and the filing of an acceptable

before the expiration of the period for which the registration was
issued or renewed, or it may be done within six months after such
expiration on payment of an additional fee.
   According to the records of the Office, the trademark registrations
listed below are expired due to failure to renew in accordance with 15

Notice of Exclusion 
                              Notice of Exclusion

   This notice concerns Hugh J. Jaeger of Wayzata, Minnesota, a registered
patent attorney (Registration No. 27,270).  In a disciplinary proceeding,
Mr. Jaeger has been excluded from the practice of patent, trademark, and
other non-patent law before the Office.

   The Director of the Office of Enrollment and Discipline for the United
States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO" or "Office") filed a
disciplinary complaint against Mr. Jaeger alleging that he violated the
USPTO Code of Professional Responsibility.  Mr. Jaeger did not answer the
complaint, and, on February 6, 2013, the administrative law judge ("ALJ")
assigned to the case granted the OED Director's motion for default judgment
and entered an Initial Decision on Default excluding Mr. Jaeger.  The
Initial Decision was not appealed, and is now final.  Mr. Jaeger's
exclusion from the practice of patent, trademark, and other non-patent law
before the United States Patent and Trademark Office was effective as of
March 9, 2013.

   The ALJ concluded, inter alia, that Mr. Jaeger violated (i) 37 C.F.R.
§10.23(a) (proscribing engaging in disreputable or gross misconduct); (ii)
37 C.F.R. §10.23(b)(4) (proscribing engaging in conduct involving
dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation); (iii) 37 C.F.R.
§10.23(b)(5) (proscribing engaging in conduct that is prejudicial to the
administration of justice); and (iv) 37 C.F.R §10.31(c) (proscribing
engaging in unauthorized  practice before the Office).  Accordingly, the
ALJ determined that exclusion was the appropriate sanction.

   This action is taken pursuant to 35 U.S.C. §§2(b)(2)(D) and 32, and 37
C.F.R. §§11.01, 11.19, 11.36(e), 11.39(c)(9), 11.54(a)(2), 11.55(i) and
11.59.  Disciplinary decisions regarding registered practitioners are
posted at the Office of Enrollment and Discipline's Reading Room, which is
publicly accessible via http://e-foia.uspto.gov/Foia/OEDReadingRoom.jsp.

Revisions to Patent Term Adjustment 
                            DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

                   United States Patent and Trademark Office

                                 37 CFR Part 1

                         [Docket No.: PTO-P-2013-0006]
                                 RIN 0651-AC84

                      Revisions to Patent Term Adjustment

AGENCY: United States Patent and Trademark Office, Commerce.

ACTION: Interim final rule.

SUMMARY: The United States Patent and Trademark Office (Office) is
revising the rules of practice to implement the changes to the patent
term adjustment provisions in section 1(h) of the Act to correct and
improve certain provisions of the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act and
title 35, United States Code (AIA Technical Corrections Act). Section
1(h) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act revises the date from which
the fourteen-month patent term adjustment period is measured, and
clarifies the date from which the three-year patent term adjustment
period is measured, with respect to international applications filed
under the Patent Cooperation Treaty. Under section 1(h) of the AIA
Technical Corrections Act, the fourteen-month patent term adjustment
period and the three-year patent term adjustment period will be
measured from the same date: the date on which an application was filed
under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) in an application under 35 U.S.C. 111; or the
date of commencement of the national stage under 35 U.S.C. 371 in an
international application. Section 1(h) of the AIA Technical
Corrections Act also revises the provisions for notifying applicants of
patent term adjustment determinations and for requesting reconsideration
and judicial review of the Office's patent term adjustment determinations
and decisions.

DATES: Effective date: April 1, 2013.
   Applicability date: The changes to 37 CFR 1.702, 1.703, and 1.705
in this interim rule apply to any patent granted on or after January
14, 2013. The change to 37 CFR 1.704 in this interim rule applies to
any application in which a notice of allowance was mailed on or after
April 1, 2013.
   Comment deadline date: Written comments must be received on or
before May 31, 2013.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent by electronic mail message over the
Internet addressed to: AC84.comments@uspto.gov. Comments may also be
submitted by postal mail addressed to: Mail Stop Comments-Patents,
Commissioner for Patents, P.O. Box 1450, Alexandria, VA, 22313-1450,
marked to the attention of Kery A. Fries, Senior Legal Advisor, Office

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
   Executive Summary: Purpose: Section 1(h) of the AIA Technical
Corrections Act revises the patent term adjustment provisions of 35
U.S.C. 154(b). The AIA Technical Corrections Act revises the date from
which the fourteen-month period in 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II), and
clarifies the date from which the three-year period in 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(1)(B), are measured with respect to international applications.
Section 1(h) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act also revises the
provisions in 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3) and (b)(4) for notifying applicants
of patent term adjustment determinations and for requesting reconsideration
and judicial review of the Office's patent term adjustment determinations
and decisions.
   Summary of Major Provisions: The Office is revising the rules of
practice pertaining to patent term adjustment for consistency with the
change to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II) to indicate that the fourteen-
month period is measured from the date of commencement of the national
stage under 35 U.S.C. 371 in an international application. The change
to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) does not require a change to the rules of
practice, as the current rules of practice interpret the phrase
"actual filing date of the application in the United States" in
former 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) as meaning the date of commencement of
the national stage under 35 U.S.C. 371 in an international application.
   The Office is also revising the provisions pertaining to seeking
reconsideration of a patent term adjustment determination, in light of
the changes to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3) and (b)(4). The Office is continuing
to provide that any request for reconsideration of the patent term
adjustment indicated on the patent must be filed within two months from
the date the patent was granted. The Office is revising this provision
to indicate that this two-month time period may be extended by an
additional five months, permitting an applicant to request
reconsideration of the patent term adjustment indicated on the patent
as late as seven months after the date the patent was granted.
   Costs and Benefits: This rulemaking is not economically significant
under Executive Order 12866 (Sept. 30, 1993).
   Background: The AIA Technical Corrections Act was enacted on
January 14, 2013. See Public Law 112-274, 126 Stat. 2456 (2013).
Section 1(h) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act revises the patent
term adjustment provisions of 35 U.S.C. 154(b). See 126 Stat. at 2457.
   Section 1(h)(1)(A) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act amends 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II) to change "the date on which an
international application fulfilled the requirements of section 371"
to "the date of commencement of the national stage under section 371
in an international application." See id. Under former 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II), the fourteen-month period in 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(1)(A)(i) was measured from "the date on which an international
application fulfilled the requirements of section 371 of this title,"
and an international application does not fulfill the requirements of
35 U.S.C. 371 until the applicant files (inter alia) the inventor's
oath or declaration (35 U.S.C. 371(c)(4) and §MPEP 1893.03(b)).
See Changes to Implement the Inventor's Oath or Declaration Provisions
of the Leahy-Smith America Invents Act, 77 FR 48776, 48780 (Aug. 14,
2012). Thus, under section 1(h)(1)(A) of the AIA Technical Corrections
Act, the fourteen-month period in 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i) is measured
 April 23, 2013 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1389 OG 226  

from: (1) The date on which an application was filed under 35 U.S.C.
111(a); or (2) the date of commencement of the national stage under 35
U.S.C. 371 in an international application.
   Section 1(h)(1)(B) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act amends 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) to change "the actual filing date of the
application in the United States" to "the actual filing date of the
application under section 111(a) in the United States or, in the case
of an international application, the date of commencement of the
national stage under section 371 in the international application."
See 126 Stat. at 2457. Thus, under section 1(h)(1)(B) of the AIA
Technical Corrections Act, the three-year period in 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(1)(B) is measured from: (1) The actual filing date of the
application under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) in the United States; or (2) in the
case of an international application, the date of commencement of the
national stage under 35 U.S.C. 371 in the international application.
   The change to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II) requires a change in
Office practice, as the date of commencement of the national stage
under 35 U.S.C. 371 is not always the date on which an international
application fulfilled the requirements of 35 U.S.C. 371. However, the
change to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) does not require a change in Office
practice, because, since the patent term adjustment provisions of 35
U.S.C. 154(b) were implemented in September of 2000, the Office has
interpreted the phrase "actual filing date of the application in the
United States" in former 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) as the date of
commencement of the national stage under 35 U.S.C. 371 in an
international application. See Changes to Implement Patent Term
Adjustment Under Twenty-Year Patent Term, 65 FR 56365, 56382-84 (Sept.
18, 2000) (explaining why the phrase "actual filing date of the
application in the United States" in 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) must mean
the date the national stage commenced under 35 U.S.C. 371(b) or (f) in
the case of an international application). The change to 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II) and (b)(1)(B) in section 1(h)(1) of the AIA
Technical Corrections Act means that the fourteen-month period in 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i) and the three-year period in 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(1)(B) will be measured from the same date: (1) The date on which
an application was filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) in an application under
35 U.S.C. 111; or (2) the date of commencement of the national stage
under 35 U.S.C. 371 in an international application.
   Section 1(h)(2) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act amends 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(3)(B)(i) to change "shall transmit a notice of that
[patent term adjustment] determination with the written notice of
allowance of the application under section 151" to "shall transmit a
notice of that [patent term adjustment] determination no later than the
date of issuance of the patent." See 126 Stat. at 2457. This change
eliminates the need for the Office to provide an initial patent term
adjustment determination with the notice of allowance and before the
patent term adjustment under 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(iv) and
154(b)(1)(B) is known. See Changes to Implement Patent Term Adjustment
Under Twenty-Year Patent Term, 65 FR 56365, 56374 (explaining that a
two-part process is required because the Office is obliged under 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(3) to provide a patent term adjustment determination
before the issue date, and thus the patent term adjustment, is known).
   Section 1(h)(3) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act amends 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(4) to change "[a]n applicant dissatisfied with a
determination made by the Director under paragraph (3) shall have
remedy by a civil action against the Director filed in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia within 180
days after the grant of the patent" to "[a]n applicant dissatisfied
with the Director's decision on the applicant's request for
reconsideration under paragraph (3)(B)(ii) shall have exclusive remedy
by a civil action against the Director filed in the United States
District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia within 180 days
after the date of the Director's decision on the applicant's request
for reconsideration." See 126 Stat. at 2457. This change to 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(4) clarifies that: (1) A civil action under 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(4)
is not an alternative to requesting reconsideration of a patent term
 April 23, 2013 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1389 OG 227  

adjustment under 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3), but is the remedy for an
applicant who is dissatisfied with the Director's decision on the
applicant's request for reconsideration; and (2) a civil action under
35 U.S.C. 154(b)(4) is the exclusive remedy for an applicant who is
dissatisfied with the Director's decision on the applicant's request
for reconsideration.
   Section 1(n) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act provides that
amendments made by the AIA Technical Corrections Act shall take effect
on January 14, 2013 (the date of enactment of the AIA Technical
Corrections Act), and shall apply to proceedings commenced on or after
January 14, 2013. See 126 Stat. at 2459. Section 1(n) of the AIA
Technical Corrections Act does not limit the applicability of the
changes in section 1(h) to applications filed on or after January 14,
2013. Cf. Section 4405(a) of the American Inventors Protection Act of
1999 (AIPA), Public Law 106-113, 113 Stat. 1501, 1501A-552 through
1501A-591 (1999) (limiting the applicability of the patent term
adjustment provisions of the AIPA to applications filed on or after May
29, 2000 (the date that is six months after the date of the enactment
of AIPA). Patent term adjustment proceedings are not "commenced"
until the Office notifies the applicant of the Office's patent term
adjustment under 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3), which now occurs when the patent
is granted. Therefore, the changes to 35 U.S.C. 154 in section 1(h) of
section 1(n) of the AIA Technical Corrections Act apply to any patent
granted on or after January 14, 2013.

Discussion of Specific Rules

   The following is a discussion of the amendments to Title 37 of the
Code of Federal Regulations, Part 1.
   Section 1.702: Section 1.702(a)(1) is amended to measure the
fourteen-month period from the date of commencement of the national
stage 35 U.S.C. 371(b) or (f) in an international application. Section
1.702(a)(1)(i) now specifically states that a ground for potential
patent term adjustment is the failure of the Office to: "Mail at least
one of a notification under 35 U.S.C. 132 or a notice of allowance
under 35 U.S.C. 151 not later than fourteen months after the date on
which the application was filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) or the date the
national stage commenced under 35 U.S.C. 371(b) or (f) in an
international application."
   Section 1.702(b) is amended to change the paragraph heading to
"Three-year pendency." No further change to 1.702(b) is necessary, as
the Office has interpreted the phrase "actual filing date of the
application in the United States" in former 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) as
the date of commencement of the national stage under 35 U.S.C. 371 in
an international application since the patent term adjustment
provisions of 35 U.S.C. 154(b) were implemented in September of 2000
(as discussed previously).
   Section 1.703: Section 1.703(a)(1) is amended to measure its
fourteen-month period from the date of commencement of the national
stage 35 U.S.C. 371(b) or (f) in an international application. Section
1.703(a)(1)(i) now specifically states that the applicable time period
is: "The number of days, if any, in the period beginning on the day
after the date that is fourteen months after the date on which the
application was filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) or the date the national
stage commenced under 35 U.S.C. 371(b) or (f) in an international
application and ending on the date of mailing of either an action under
35 U.S.C. 132, or a notice of allowance under 35 U.S.C. 151, whichever
occurs first".
   No change to §1.703(b) is necessary, as the Office has
interpreted the phrase "actual filing date of the application in the
United States" in former 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(B) as the date of
commencement of the national stage under 35 U.S.C. 371 in an
international application since the patent term adjustment provisions
of 35 U.S.C. 154(b) were implemented in September of 2000 (as discussed
previously).
   Section 1.704: Section 1.704(c) is amended to remove the reference
 April 23, 2013 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1389 OG 228  

to an application for patent term adjustment under §1.705. Section
1.705 no longer provides for a request for reconsideration of the
patent term adjustment indicated in the notice of allowance, as 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(3) no longer requires a patent term adjustment with the
notice of allowance.
   35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3)(C) (implemented in §1.705(c)) provides for
reinstatement of all or part of the period of adjustment reduced
pursuant to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(2)(C) if the applicant makes a showing
that, in spite of all due care, the applicant was unable to respond
within the three-month period, but requires that such a showing be made
"prior to the issuance of the patent." Thus, §1.704(e) continues
to provide that the submission of a request under §1.705(c) for
reinstatement of reduced patent term adjustment will not be considered
a failure to engage in reasonable efforts to conclude prosecution
(processing or examination) of the application under §1.704(c)(10).
   Section 1.705: Section 1.705(a) provides that the patent will
include notification of any patent term adjustment under 35 U.S.C.
154(b). This change is due to the change to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3) to no
longer require notice of a patent term adjustment with the notice of
allowance. The Office plans to continue to provide an indication of the
patent term adjustment with the issue notification, but the patent term
adjustment under 35 U.S.C. 154(b) indicated on the patent is the
"official" notification of the Office's patent term adjustment
determination.
   Section 1.705(b) provides that any request for reconsideration of
the patent term adjustment indicated on the patent must be by way of an
application for patent term adjustment filed no later than two months
from the date the patent was granted, and that this two-month time
period may be extended under the provisions of §1.136(a) by five
months. This provision permits an applicant to request reconsideration
of the patent term adjustment indicated on the patent as late as seven
months after the date the patent was granted. Section 1.705(b) no
longer provides for a request for reconsideration of the Office's
patent term adjustment determination prior to the grant of a patent.
   The Office has adopted ad hoc procedures for seeking
reconsideration of the patent term adjustment determination when there
have been changes (sua sponte or as a result of court decisions) to the
Office's interpretation of the provisions of 35 U.S.C. 154(b). See
Revision of Patent Term Adjustment Provisions Relating to Appellate
Review, 77 FR 49354, 49356 (Aug. 16, 2012), and Interim Procedure for
Patentees To Request a Recalculation of the Patent Term Adjustment To
Comply With the Federal Circuit Decision in Wyeth v. Kappos Regarding
the Overlapping Delay Provision of 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(2)(A), 75 FR 5043,
5044 (Feb. 1, 2010). These ad hoc procedures were adopted because
former 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(4) provided a time period for seeking judicial
review that was not related to the filing of a request for
reconsideration of the Office's patent term adjustment determination or
the date of the Office's decision on any request for reconsideration of
the Office's patent term adjustment determination. In view of the
changes to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3) and 154(b)(4), and to permit patentees
additional time to determine whether to request reconsideration of the
Office's patent term adjustment determination, the Office is providing
in §1.705(b) that its two-month time period may be extended under
the provisions of §1.136(a) (permitting an applicant to request
reconsideration of the patent term adjustment indicated on the patent
as late as seven months after the date the patent was granted).
   Section 1.705(c) is amended to provide that any request for
reinstatement of all or part of the period of adjustment reduced
pursuant to §1.704(b) for failing to reply to a rejection,
objection, argument, or other request within three months of the date
of mailing of the Office communication notifying the applicant of the
rejection, objection, argument, or other request must be filed prior to
the issuance of the patent, and that this time period is not extendable.
35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3)(C) requires that such a showing be made "prior to the
issuance of the patent," and thus the Office cannot permit the showing
provided for in 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3)(C) and §1.705(c) to be
 April 23, 2013 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1389 OG 229  

submitted with a request for reconsideration of the Office's patent
term adjustment determination under §1.705(b).
   The former provisions of §§1.705(d) and (e) have been removed in view
of the changes to 1.705(b).

Rulemaking Considerations

   A. Administrative Procedure Act: This rulemaking revises the rules
of practice in patent cases to implement the changes to the patent term
adjustment provisions of 35 U.S.C. 154(b) in the AIA Technical
Corrections Act. The revisions pertaining to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1) simply
revise the provisions of 37 CFR 1.702 and 1.703 for consistency with
the changes to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1). The revisions pertaining to 35
U.S.C. 154(b)(3) simply revise 37 CFR 1.704 and 1.705 to change
(extend) the time period for seeking reconsideration of a patent term
adjustment determination in light of the changes to 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(3). These changes do not alter the substantive criteria of
patentability or patent term adjustment. Therefore, these changes
involve rules of agency practice and procedure and/or interpretive
rules. See Bachow Commc'ns Inc. v. FCC, 237 F.3d 683, 690 (D.C. Cir.
2001) (rules governing an application process are procedural under the
Administrative Procedure Act); Inova Alexandria Hosp. v. Shalala, 244
F.3d 342, 350 (4th Cir. 2001) (rules for handling appeals were
procedural where they did not change the substantive standard for
reviewing claims); National Whistleblower Ctr. v. Nuclear Regulatory
Comm'n, 208 F.3d 256, 262 (D.C. Cir. 2000) (rules that prescribe a
timetable for asserting rights are procedural, unless they foreclose an
effective opportunity to make one's case on the merits) (quoting
Lamoille Valley R.R. Co. v. ICC, 711 F.2d 295, 328 (D.C. Cir. 1983));
and Nat'l Org. of Veterans' Advocates v. Sec'y of Veterans Affairs, 260
F.3d 1365, 1375 (Fed. Cir. 2001) (rule that clarifies interpretation of
a statute is interpretive). In addition, good cause exists to make
these procedural changes without prior notice and opportunity for
comment and to be effective immediately so as to avoid inconsistency
between the provisions of 37 CFR 1.702 through 1.705 and 35 U.S.C.
154(b) as amended by the AIA Technical Corrections Act.
   Accordingly, prior notice and opportunity for public comment are
not required pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 553(b) or (c) (or any other law) and
thirty-day advance publication is not required pursuant to 5 U.S.C.
553(d) (or any other law). See Cooper Techs. Co. v. Dudas, 536 F.3d
1330, 1336-37 (Fed. Cir. 2008) (stating that 5 U.S.C. 553, and thus 35
U.S.C. 2(b)(2)(B), does not require notice and comment rulemaking for
"interpretative rules, general statements of policy, or rules of
agency organization, procedure, or practice") (quoting 5 U.S.C.
553(b)(A)). The Office, however, is publishing these changes as an
interim rule to allow for public comments because the Office seeks the
benefit of the public's views on the Office's implementation of the
changes to 35 U.S.C. 154(b) in the AIA Technical Corrections Act.
   B. Regulatory Flexibility Act: For the reasons set forth herein,
the Deputy General Counsel for General Law of the United States Patent
and Trademark Office has certified to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of
the Small Business Administration that changes in this rulemaking will
not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small
entities. See 5 U.S.C. 605(b).
   The changes in this rulemaking: (1) Revise the date from which the
fourteen-month period in 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i) is measured in an
international application for consistency with the change to 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II); and (2) revise (extend) the time period for
seeking reconsideration of the Office's patent term adjustment in view
of the changes in 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(3) and (b)(4). These changes mirror
the provisions in the AIA Technical Corrections Act and do not add any
additional requirements (including information collection requirements)
or fees for patent applicants or patentees. For these reasons, the
changes in this rulemaking will not have a significant economic impact
on a substantial number of small entities.
   C. Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review): This
 April 23, 2013 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1389 OG 230  

rulemaking has been determined to be not significant for purposes of
Executive Order 12866 (Sept. 30, 1993).
   D. Executive Order 13563 (Improving Regulation and Regulatory
Review): The Office has complied with Executive Order 13563.
Specifically, the Office has, to the extent feasible and applicable:
(1) Made a reasoned determination that the benefits justify the costs
of the rule; (2) tailored the rule to impose the least burden on
society consistent with obtaining the regulatory objectives; (3)
selected a regulatory approach that maximizes net benefits; (4)
specified performance objectives; (5) identified and assessed available
alternatives; (6) involved the public in an open exchange of
information and perspectives among experts in relevant disciplines,
affected stakeholders in the private sector and the public as a whole,
and provided on-line access to the rulemaking docket; (7) attempted to
promote coordination, simplification, and harmonization across
government agencies and identified goals designed to promote
innovation; (8) considered approaches that reduce burdens and maintain
flexibility and freedom of choice for the public; and (9) ensured the
objectivity of scientific and technological information and processes.
   E. Executive Order 13132 (Federalism): This rulemaking does not
contain policies with federalism implications sufficient to warrant
preparation of a Federalism Assessment under Executive Order 13132
(Aug. 4, 1999).
   F. Executive Order 13175 (Tribal Consultation): This rulemaking
will not: (1) Have substantial direct effects on one or more Indian
tribes; (2) impose substantial direct compliance costs on Indian tribal
governments; or (3) preempt tribal law. Therefore, a tribal summary
impact statement is not required under Executive Order 13175 (Nov. 6,
2000).
   G. Executive Order 13211 (Energy Effects): This rulemaking is not a
significant energy action under Executive Order 13211 because this
rulemaking is not likely to have a significant adverse effect on the
supply, distribution, or use of energy. Therefore, a Statement of
Energy Effects is not required under Executive Order 13211 (May 18,
2001).
   H. Executive Order 12988 (Civil Justice Reform): This rulemaking
meets applicable standards to minimize litigation, eliminate ambiguity,
and reduce burden as set forth in sections 3(a) and 3(b)(2) of
Executive Order 12988 (Feb. 5, 1996).
   I. Executive Order 13045 (Protection of Children): This rulemaking
does not concern an environmental risk to health or safety that may
disproportionately affect children under Executive Order 13045 (Apr.
21, 1997).
   J. Executive Order 12630 (Taking of Private Property): This
rulemaking will not effect a taking of private property or otherwise
have taking implications under Executive Order 12630 (Mar. 15, 1988).
   K. Congressional Review Act: Under the Congressional Review Act
provisions of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of
1996 (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.), the United States Patent and Trademark
Office will submit a report containing this interim rule and other
required information to the United States Senate, the United States
House of Representatives, and the Comptroller General of the Government
Accountability Office. The changes in this rulemaking will not result
in an annual effect on the economy of 100 million dollars or more, a
major increase in costs or prices, or significant adverse effects on
competition, employment, investment, productivity, innovation, or the
ability of United States-based enterprises to compete with foreign-
based enterprises in domestic and export markets. Therefore, this
rulemaking is not a "major rule" as defined in 5 U.S.C. 804(2).
   L. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995: The changes set forth in
this rulemaking do not involve a Federal intergovernmental mandate that
will result in the expenditure by State, local, and tribal governments,
in the aggregate, of 100 million dollars (as adjusted) or more in any

expenditure by the private sector of 100 million dollars (as adjusted)
or more in any one year, and will not significantly or uniquely affect

small governments. Therefore, no actions are necessary under the
provisions of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995. See 2 U.S.C.
1501 et seq.
   M. National Environmental Policy Act: This rulemaking will not have
any effect on the quality of the environment and is thus categorically
excluded from review under the National Environmental Policy Act of
1969. See 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.
   N. National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act: The
requirements of section 12(d) of the National Technology Transfer and
Advancement Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) are not applicable because
this rulemaking does not contain provisions which involve the use of
technical standards.
   O. Paperwork Reduction Act: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) requires that the Office consider the impact of
paperwork and other information collection burdens imposed on the
public. The rules of practice pertaining to patent term adjustment and
extension have been reviewed and approved by the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) under OMB control number 0651-0020. The changes in this
rulemaking: (1) Revise the date from which the fourteen-month period in
35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i) is measured in an international application
for consistency with the change to 35 U.S.C. 154(b)(1)(A)(i)(II); and
(2) revise (extend) the time period for seeking reconsideration of the
Office's patent term adjustment in view of the changes in 35 U.S.C.
154(b)(3) and (b)(4). This rulemaking does not add any additional
requirements (including information collection requirements) or fees
for patent applicants or patentees. Therefore, the Office is not
resubmitting information collection packages to OMB for its review and
approval because the changes in this rulemaking do not affect the
information collection requirements associated with the information
collections approved under OMB control number 0651-0020 or any other
information collections.
   Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required
to respond to nor shall any person be subject to a penalty for failure
to comply with a collection of information subject to the requirements
of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information
displays a currently valid OMB control number.

              MAIL TO BE DIRECTED TO THE COMMISSIONER FOR PATENTS

   For most correspondence (e.g., new patent applications) no mail stop
is required because the processing of the correspondence is routine.
If NO mail stop is included on the list below, no mail stop is required
for the correspondence. See the listing under "Mail to be Directed to the
Director of the Patent And Trademark Office" for additional mail stops
for patent-related correspondence. Only the specified type of document
should be placed in an envelope addressed to one of these special mail
stops. If any documents other than the specified type identified for each
special mail stop are addressed to that mail stop, they will be
significantly delayed in reaching the appropriate area for which they are
intended. The mail stop should generally appear as the first line in
the address.

   Most correspondence may be submitted electronically. See the USPTO's
Electronic Filing System (EFS-Web) internet page
http://www.uspto.gov/patents/process/file/efs/index.jsp for additional
information.
