each immigration status or visa
category; however, the ever-changing
landscape of immigration prohibits such
an exhaustive list. The instructions
below are to be inserted under Section
F of the GRB.
F. Eligibility of Aliens: No grant of
registration except under 37 CFR
11.6(c). An applicant who is not a
United States citizen and does not
reside in the U.S. is not eligible for
registration except as permitted by 37
CFR 11.6(c). Presently, the Canadian
Intellectual Property Office is the only
patent office recognized as allowing
substantially reciprocal privileges to
those admitted to practice before the
USPTO. The registration examination is
not administered to aliens who do not
reside in the United States.
Limited recognition to practice before
the Office in patent matters. An alien
residing in the United States may apply
for limited recognition to practice before
the Office in patent matters pursuant to
37 CFR 11.9(b). To be admitted to take
the examination, an applicant must
fulfill the requirements as stated above
and 37 CFR 11.9(b), which includes that
establishing that such recognition is
consistent with the capacity of
employment authorized by United
States immigration authorities, for
example the United States Citizenship
and Immigration Services (USCIS),
United States Department of State, U.S.
Customs and Border Patrol, and the U.S.
Department of Labor. The evidence
establishing such consistency must
demonstrate: (1) the applicant’s
authorization to reside in the United
States, and (2) the applicant’s
authorization to work or be trained in
the United States. It must include a
copy of both sides of any work or
training authorization and copies of all
documents submitted to and received
from the immigration authorities
regarding admission to the United
States, and a copy of any documentation
submitted to the U.S. Department of
Labor. This may include a complete
copy of the application for a particular
immigration status, the application for a
work or training permit, and/or any
related approved notices.
Qualifying documentation should
specifically show that the immigration
authorities have authorized the
applicant to be employed or trained in
the capacity of representing patent
applicants before the USPTO by
preparing and prosecuting their patent
applications. Any approval that is
pending at the time the application is
submitted will result in the applicant
being denied admission to the
examination.

Jkt 259001

A qualifying alien within the scope of
8 CFR 274a.12(b) or (c) is not registered
upon passing the examination.
Therefore, such qualifying aliens will
not be patent attorneys or patent agents.
Rather, such an applicant will be given
limited recognition under 37 CFR
11.9(b) if recognition is consistent with
the capacity of employment or training
authorized by immigration authorities.
Documentation establishing an
applicant’s qualification to receive
limited recognition must be submitted
with the applicant’s application.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Making Ends Meet
Survey.
OMB Control Number: 3170–00XX.
Type of Review: New collection.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
4,500.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 1,375.
Abstract: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act
charges the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau with researching,
analyzing, and reporting on topics
relating to the Bureau’s mission
including consumer behavior, consumer
awareness, and developments in
markets for consumer financial products
and services. To improve its
understanding of how consumers
engage with financial markets, the
Bureau has successfully used surveys
under its ‘‘Making Ends Meet’’ program.
The ‘‘Making Ends Meet’’ program has
also used the Bureau’s Consumer Credit
Information Panel (CCIP) as a frame to
survey people about their experiences in
consumer credit markets. The Bureau
seeks approval for two yearly surveys
under the ‘‘Making Ends Meet’’
program. These surveys solicit
information on the consumer’s
experience related to household
financial shocks, particularly shocks
related to the economic effects of the
COVID–19 pandemic, how households
respond to those shocks, and the role of
savings to help provide a financial
buffer.
The first survey will be a follow-up to
respondents from the Bureau’s 2023
‘‘Making Ends Meet’’ survey to better
understand household financial
experiences dealing with medical debt
as well as consumers’ interactions with
various financial products. The second
survey will go to a new sample of
consumers from the CCIP and will
address several topics of interest to the
Bureau possibly including the impact of

natural disasters and other
environmental events, credit shopping
behavior, additional follow-up regarding
debt collection, and the assessment of
various fees throughout the financial
services ecosystem.
Request for Comments: Comments are
invited on: (a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Bureau, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the Bureau’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methods and the assumptions used;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) Ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. Comments submitted in
response to this notice will be
summarized and/or included in the
request for OMB’s approval. All
comments will become a matter of
public record.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Abstract of patent application(s):
A method for cyber security monitor
includes monitoring a network interface
that is input-only configured to
surreptitiously and covertly receive bitlevel, physical layer communication
between networked control and sensor
field devices. During a training mode, a
baseline distinct native attribute (DNA)
fingerprint is generated for each
networked field device. During a
protection mode, a current DNA
fingerprint is generated for each
networked field device. The current
DNA fingerprint is compared to the
baseline DNA fingerprint for each
networked field device. In response to
detect at least one of RAA and PAA
based on a change in the current DNA
fingerprint to the baseline DNA
fingerprint of one or more networked
field devices, an alert is transmitted, via
an external security engine interface to
an external security engine.

May 2020 and entitled Passive Physical
Layer Distinct Native Attribute Cyber
Security Monitor.
The Department of the Air Force may
grant the prospective license unless a
timely objection is received that
sufficiently shows the grant of the
license would be inconsistent with the
Bayh-Dole Act or implementing
regulations. A competing application for
a patent license agreement, completed
in compliance with 37 CFR 404.8 and
received by the Air Force within the
period for timely objections, will be
treated as an objection and may be
considered as an alternative to the
proposed license.

Elba Liquefaction Company, LLC;
Southern LNG Company, LLC; Notice
of Application for Amendment and
Establishing Intervention Deadline
Take notice that on April 28, 2023,
Elba Liquefaction Company, LLC (ELC),
and Southern LNG Company, LLC
(SLNG), 569 Brookwood Village, Suite
749, Birmingham, Alabama 35209, filed
an application under section 3(a) of the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) requesting an
amendment to its June 1, 2016 Order 1
(2016 Order) to modify certain Movable
Modular Liquefaction System (MMLS)
Dehydration and Heavies Removal units
that will reduce the fouling rate in the
liquefaction units, reduce the resultant
flaring events associated with cold box
deriming, and therefore allow the
MMLS to operate in an optimized
condition for longer periods of time
without fouling. Accordingly, this
project is referred to as the Elba
Liquefaction Optimization Project.
Specifically, ELC and SLNG request
authorization to (1) make modifications
to ten (10) MMLS units; (2) construct
and operate a new condensate plant; (3)
install three (3) new liquid nitrogen
vaporizers; and (4) increase the total
liquefaction capacity of the MMLS units
up to approximately 2.9 MTPA from 2.5
MTPA (0.0553 Bcf/d).
