[Notice (18–051)] 

Notice of Intent To Grant Partially 

Exclusive License 

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and 

Space Administration. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to grant 

partially exclusive license. 

SUMMARY: NASA hereby gives notice of 

its intent to grant a partially exclusive 

patent license in the United States to 

practice the invention described and 

claimed in U.S. Patent Application 

entitled, ‘‘Liquid-Filled FrequencyTunable Vibration Damper’’, NASA 

Case Number MFS–33613–1, to 

Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. having its 

principal place of business in New 

York, NY. The field of use may be 

limited to all commercial applications 

where a ducted fluid absorber can be 

utilized in buildings 300 feet and taller. 

The patent rights in this invention, a 

new type of vibration mitigation, have 

been assigned to the United States of 

America as represented by the 

Administrator of the National 

Aeronautics and Space Administration. 

NASA has not yet made a determination 

to grant the requested license and may 

deny the requested license even if no 

objections are submitted within the 

comment period. 

DATES: The prospective partially 

exclusive license may be granted unless 

NASA receives written objections, 

including evidence and argument no 

later than July 5, 2018 that establish that 

the grant of the license would not be 

consistent with the requirements 

regarding the licensing of federally 

owned inventions as set forth in the 

Bayh-Dole Act and implementing 

regulations. Competing applications 

completed and received by NASA no 

later than July 5, 2018 will also be 

treated as objections to the grant of the 

contemplated partially exclusive 

license. Objections submitted in 

response to this notice will not be made 

available to the public for inspection 

and, to the extent permitted by law, will 

not be released under the Freedom of 

Information Act. 

Objections submitted in response to 

this notice will not be made available to 

the public for inspection and, to the 

extent permitted by law, will not be 

released under the Freedom of 

Information Act. 

ADDRESSES: Objections relating to the 

prospective license may be submitted to

NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS 

ADMINISTRATION 

[NARA–2018–043] 

Records Schedules; Availability and 

Request for Comments 

AGENCY: National Archives and Records 

Administration (NARA). 

ACTION: Notice of availability of 

proposed records schedules; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The National Archives and 

Records Administration (NARA) 

publishes notice at least once monthly 

of certain Federal agency requests for 

records disposition authority (records 

schedules). Once approved by NARA, 

records schedules provide mandatory 

instructions on what happens to records 

when agencies no longer need them for 

current Government business. The 

records schedules authorize agencies to 

preserve records of continuing value in 

the National Archives of the United 

States and to destroy, after a specified 

period, records lacking administrative, 

legal, research, or other value. NARA 

publishes notice in the Federal Register 

for records schedules in which agencies 

propose to destroy records they no 

longer need to conduct agency business. 

NARA invites public comments on such 

records schedules. 

DATES: NARA must receive requests for 

copies in writing by July 19, 2018. Once 

NARA finishes appraising the records, 

we will send you a copy of the schedule 

you requested. We usually prepare 

appraisal memoranda that contain 

additional information concerning the 

records covered by a proposed schedule. 

You may also request these. If you do, 

we will also provide them once we have 

completed the appraisal. You have 30 

days after we send to you these 

requested documents in which to 

submit comments. 

ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of 

any records schedule identified in this 

notice by contacting Records Appraisal 

and Agency Assistance (ACRA) using 

one of the following means: 

Mail: NARA (ACRA); 8601 Adelphi 

Road; College Park, MD 20740–6001. 

Email: request.schedule@nara.gov. 

Fax: 301–837–3698. 

You must cite the control number, 

which appears in parentheses after the 

name of the agency that submitted the 

schedule, and a mailing address. If you 

would like an appraisal report, please 

include that in your request. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Margaret Hawkins, Director, by mail at 

Records Appraisal and Agency 

Assistance (ACRA); National Archives 

and Records Administration; 8601 

Adelphi Road; College Park, MD 20740– 

6001, by phone at 301–837–1799, or by 

email at request.schedule@nara.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NARA 

publishes notice in the Federal Register 

for records schedules they no longer 

need to conduct agency business. NARA 

invites public comments on such 

records schedules, as required by 44 

U.S.C. 3303a(a). 

Each year, Federal agencies create 

billions of records on paper, film, 

magnetic tape, and other media. To 

control this accumulation, agency 

records managers prepare schedules 

proposing records retention periods and 

submit these schedules for NARA’s 

approval. These schedules provide for 

timely transfer into the National 

Archives of historically valuable records 

and authorize the agency to dispose of 

all other records after the agency no 

longer needs them to conduct its 

business. Some schedules are 

comprehensive and cover all the records 

of an agency or one of its major 

subdivisions. Most schedules, however, 

cover records of only one office or 

program or a few series of records. Many 

of these update previously approved 

schedules, and some include records 

proposed as permanent. 

The schedules listed in this notice are 

media neutral unless otherwise 

specified. An item in a schedule is 

media neutral when an agency may 

apply the disposition instructions to 

records regardless of the medium in 

which it creates or maintains the 

records. Items included in schedules 

submitted to NARA on or after 

December 17, 2007, are media neutral 

unless the item is expressly limited to 

a specific medium. (See 36 CFR 

1225.12(e).) 

Agencies may not destroy Federal 

records without Archivist of the United 

States’ approval. The Archivist approves 

destruction only after thoroughly 

considering the records’ administrative 

use by the agency of origin, the rights 

of the Government and of private people 

directly affected by the Government’s 

activities, and whether or not the 

records have historical or other value. 

In addition to identifying the Federal 

agencies and any subdivisions 

requesting disposition authority, this 

notice lists the organizational unit(s) 

accumulating the records (or notes that 

the schedule has agency-wide 

applicability when schedules cover 

records that may be accumulated 

throughout an agency); provides the 

control number assigned to each 

schedule, the total number of schedule 

items, and the number of temporary 

items (the records proposed for 

destruction); and includes a brief 

description of the temporary records. 

The records schedule itself contains a 

full description of the records at the file 

unit level as well as their disposition. If 

NARA staff has prepared an appraisal 

memorandum for the schedule, it also 

includes information about the records. 

You may request additional information 

about the disposition process at the 

addresses above. 

Schedules Pending 

1. Department of Labor, Occupational 

Safety and Health Administration 

(DAA–0100–2018–0002, 9 items, 9 

temporary items). Records related to 

safety and health inspections in area 

and field offices, including local policy, 

complaints, and whistleblower 

investigations. 

2. Department of Labor, Occupational 

Safety and Health Administration 

(DAA–0100–2018–0003, 1 item, 1 

temporary item). Records related to 

responses to natural disasters or 

emergencies, including action plans, 

reports, and coordination with other 

agencies.

Chief Records Officer for the U.S.
