FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To
request additional information about
this ICR, contact Stephanie McPhee by
email at [email protected], or by
telephone at (303) 445–2897.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), all
information collections require approval
under the PRA. We may not conduct or
sponsor and you are not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of

appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before
including your address, phone number,
email address, or other personal
identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Abstract.
Identification of limited recipients—
Some entities that receive Reclamation
irrigation water may believe that they
are under the Reclamation Reform Act
of 1982 (RRA) forms submittal threshold
and, consequently, may not submit the
appropriate RRA form(s). However,
some of these entities may in fact have
a different RRA forms submittal
threshold than what they believe it to be
due to the number of natural persons
benefiting from each entity and the
location of the land held by each entity.
In addition, some entities that are
exempt from the requirement to submit
RRA forms due to the size of their
landholdings (directly and indirectly
owned and leased land) may in fact be
receiving Reclamation irrigation water
for which the full-cost rate must be paid
because the start of Reclamation

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 179 / Tuesday, September 15, 2020 / Notices
irrigation water deliveries occurred after
October 1, 1981 [43 CFR 426.6(b)(2)].
The information obtained through
completion of the Limited Recipient
Identification Sheet (Form 7–2536)
allows us to establish entities’
compliance with Federal reclamation
law. The Limited Recipient
Identification Sheet is disbursed at our
discretion.
Trust review—In order to administer
section 214 of the RRA and 43 CFR
426.7, we are required to review and
approve all trusts. Land held in trust
generally will be attributed to the
beneficiaries of the trust rather than the
trustee if the criteria specified in the
RRA and 43 CFR 426.7 are met. We may
extend the option to complete and
submit for our review the Trust
Information Sheet (Form 7–2537)
instead of actual trust documents when
we become aware of trusts with a
relatively small landholding (40 acres or
less in districts subject to the prior law
provisions of Federal reclamation law,
240 acres or less in districts subject to
the discretionary provisions of Federal
reclamation law). If we find nothing on
the completed Trust Information Sheet
that would warrant the further review of
a particular trust, that trustee will not be
burdened with submitting trust
documents to us for in-depth review.
The Trust Information Sheet is
disbursed at our discretion.
Acreage limitation provisions
applicable to public entities—Land
farmed by a public entity can be
considered exempt from the application
of the acreage limitation provisions
provided the public entity meets certain
criteria pertaining to the revenue
generated through the entity’s farming
activities (43 CFR 426.10 and the Act of
July 7, 1970, Pub. L. 91–310). We are
required to ascertain whether public
entities that receive Reclamation
irrigation water meet such revenue
criteria regardless of how much land the

public entities hold (directly or
indirectly own or lease) [43 CFR
426.10(a)]. In order to minimize the
burden on public entities, standard RRA
forms are submitted by a public entity
only when the public entity holds more
than 40 acres subject to the acreage
limitation provisions westwide, which
makes it difficult to apply the revenue
criteria as required to those public
entities that hold less than 40 acres.
When we become aware of such public
entities, we request those public entities
complete and submit for our review the
Public Entity Information Sheet (Form
7–2565), which allows us to establish
compliance with Federal reclamation
law for those public entities that hold 40
acres or less and, thus, do not submit a
standard RRA form because they are
below the RRA forms submittal
threshold. In addition, for those public
entities that do not meet the exemption
criteria, we must determine the proper
rate to charge for Reclamation irrigation
water deliveries. The Public Entity
Information Sheet is disbursed at our
discretion.
Acreage limitation provisions
applicable to religious or charitable
organizations—Some religious or
charitable organizations that receive
Reclamation irrigation water may
believe that they are under the RRA
forms submittal threshold and,
consequently, may not submit the
appropriate RRA form(s). However,
some of these organizations may in fact
have a different RRA forms submittal
threshold than what they believe it to be
depending on whether these
organizations meet all of the required
criteria for full special application of the
acreage limitations provisions to
religious or charitable organizations [43
CFR 426.9(b)]. In addition, some
organizations that (1) do not meet the
criteria to be treated as a religious or
charitable organization under the
acreage limitation provisions, and (2)

irrigation water for which the full-cost

Reclamation irrigation water deliveries

SUMMARY:

on November 17, 2014, based on a
complaint filed on behalf of Converse
Inc. (‘‘Converse’’ or ‘‘Complainant’’) of
North Andover, Massachusetts. 79 FR
68482–83 (Nov. 17, 2014). The
complaint alleges, inter alia, 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 footwear products
by reason of infringement of U.S.
Trademark Registration Nos. 3,258,103
(‘‘the ’103 trademark’’) and 1,588,960
(‘‘the ’960 trademark’’), and the ’753
trademark, registered on September 10,
2013, and the common law trademark
rights for the same mark (the ‘‘CMT’’).
See id. The Commission’s notice of
investigation names numerous
respondents including Skechers U.S.A.,
Inc. (‘‘Skechers’’) of Manhattan Beach,
California, and Highline United LLC d/
b/a Ash Footwear USA (‘‘Highline’’),
now of Hyde Park, Massachusetts. Id.
New Balance Athletic Shoe, Inc. (‘‘New
Balance’’) of Boston, Massachusetts, was
subsequently added to the investigation
as a respondent-intervenor. 80 FR 9748
(Feb. 24, 2015). Only Skechers,
Highline, and New Balance remain
active in the investigation (collectively,
the ‘‘Active Respondents’’). The
following five respondents were found
in default: Dioniso SRL (‘‘Dioniso’’) of
Perugia, Italy; Shenzhen Foreversun
Industrial Co., Ltd. (a/k/a Shenzhen
Foreversun Shoes Co., Ltd.)
(‘‘Foreversun’’) of Shenzhen, China;
Fujian Xinya I&E Trading Co. Ltd. of
Jinjiang, China; Zhejiang Ouhai
International Trade Co. Ltd. (‘‘Ouhai’’)
of Wenzhou, China; and Wenzhou
Cereals Oils & Foodstuffs Foreign Trade
Co. Ltd. of Wenzhou, China
(collectively, the ‘‘Defaulting
Respondents’’). Every other respondent
was terminated from the investigation or
settled with Converse. The Office of
Unfair Import Investigations (‘‘OUII’’) is
also a party to the investigation. 79 FR
at 68483.
On June 23, 2016, the Commission
found a violation of section 337 with
respect to the ’103 trademark and the
’960 trademark and issued a GEO
directed against infringing footwear
products. 81 FR 42377–79 (June 29,
2016). The Commission found no
violation of section 337 with respect to
the ’753 trademark because it
determined the ’753 trademark and the
common law trademark rights in the
CMT were invalid based on a lack of
secondary meaning. Id. at 42379.
Thereafter, Converse appealed the
Commission’s finding of no violation of
section 337 with respect to the ’753

PO 00000

trademark and its alleged common law
trademark rights in the CMT. The
Federal Circuit vacated the
Commission’s finding and remanded the
investigation to the Commission in
Converse, Inc. v. International Trade
Commission, 909 F.3d 1110 (Fed. Cir.
2018). On April 9, 2019, the
Commission, in turn, remanded the
matter to the ALJ who adjudicated the
original investigation to make findings
and issue an RID with respect to the
CMT in accordance with the Federal
Circuit decision.
On July 31, 2019, Converse, the
Active Respondents, and OUII each
filed an initial brief regarding the issues
on remand. On August 9, 2019,
Converse and the Active Respondents
each filed a reply brief.
On October 9, 2019, the ALJ issued
his RID finding no violation of section
337 by the Active Respondents.
Specifically, the RID found that
Converse had not established secondary
meaning of the CMT prior to each
Active Respondents’ alleged first use
and, therefore, Converse possessed no
valid common law trademark rights in
the CMT. The RID also found that the
Active Respondents’ accused products
do not infringe even if the CMT were
found to have acquired secondary
meaning, except for one Skechers
product found to infringe. The RID
further found the Defaulting
Respondents’ accused products infringe
the ’753 trademark.
On October 22, 2019, Converse, the
Active Respondents, and OUII each
filed a petition for review of the RID. On
October 30, 2019, each of these parties
filed responses to the other petitions for
review.
On February 7, 2020, the Commission
determined to review the RID in part. 85
FR 8322 (Feb. 13, 2020). Specifically,
the Commission determined to review
the RID’s infringement, validity, and
injury analyses with respect to the
common law trademark rights in the
CMT and the RID’s validity and
infringement analyses with respect to
the ’753 trademark. Id. The Commission
also requested additional briefing from
the parties on the issues under review
and on the issues of remedy, the public
interest, and bonding. Id. at 8322–23.
Converse, the Active Respondents, and
OUII filed timely initial and reply
written submissions.
Having reviewed the record in this
investigation, including the RID and the
parties’ written submissions, the
Commission has determined to affirm in
part and reverse in part the RID’s
findings under review. Specifically, the
Commission reverses the RID’s finding
that the CMT had not acquired
