SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf 

of Mexico, South Atlantic, and 

Caribbean Fishery Management 

Councils, in conjunction with NOAA 

Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf 

States Marine Fisheries Commissions 

have implemented the Southeast Data, 

Assessment and Review (SEDAR) 

process, a multi-step method for 

determining the status of fish stocks in 

the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a multistep process including: (1) Data 

Workshop; (2) Assessment Process 

utilizing webinars; and (3) Review 

Workshop. The product of the Data 

Workshop is a data report that compiles 

and evaluates potential datasets and 

recommends which datasets are 

appropriate for assessment analyses. 

The product of the Assessment Process 

is a stock assessment report that 

describes the fisheries, evaluates the 

status of the stock, estimates biological 

benchmarks, projects future population 

conditions, and recommends research 

and monitoring needs. The assessment 

is independently peer reviewed at the 

Review Workshop. The product of the 

Review Workshop is a Summary 

documenting panel opinions regarding 

the strengths and weaknesses of the 

stock assessment and input data. 

Participants for SEDAR Workshops are 

appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South 

Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery 

Management Councils and NOAA 

Fisheries Southeast Regional Office, 

HMS Management Division, and 

Southeast Fisheries Science Center. 

Participants include data collectors and 

database managers; stock assessment 

scientists, biologists, and researchers; 

constituency representatives including 

fishermen, environmentalists, and 

NGO’s; International experts; and staff 

of Councils, Commissions, and state and

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE 

Patent and Trademark Office 

[Docket No. PTO–P–2022–0009] 

Grant of Interim Extension of the Term 

of U.S. Patent No. 8,858,612; Reducer®

AGENCY: United States Patent and 

Trademark Office, Department of 

Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice of interim patent term 

extension. 

SUMMARY: The United States Patent and 

Trademark Office has issued an order 

granting a one-year interim extension of 

the term of U.S. Patent No. 8,858,612. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ali 

Salimi, Senior Legal Advisor, Office of 

Patent Legal Administration, by 

telephone at 571–272–0909 or by email 

to ali.salimi@uspto.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

156 of Title 35, United States Code, 

generally provides that the term of a 

patent may be extended for a period of 

up to five years if the patent claims a 

product, or a method of making or using 

a product, that has been subject to 

certain defined regulatory review, and 

that the patent may be extended for 

interim periods of up to one year if the 

regulatory review is anticipated to 

extend beyond the expiration date of the 

patent. 

On February 22, 2022, Neovasc 

Medical Ltd., the patent owner of 

record, timely filed an application 

under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5) for a third 

interim extension of the term of U.S. 

Patent No. 8,858,612. The patent claims 

methods of using a catheter delivered 

implantable device known by the 

tradename Reducer®. The application 

for patent term extension indicates that 

a Premarket Approval Application 

(PMA) P190035 was submitted to the 

Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on 

December 31, 2019. 

Review of the patent term extension 

application indicates that, except for 

permission to market or use the product 

commercially, the subject patent would 

be eligible for an extension of the patent 

term under 35 U.S.C. 156, and that the 

patent should be extended for one year 

as required by 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5)(B). 

Because the regulatory review period 

will continue beyond the extended 

expiration date of the patent, March 27, 

2022, interim extension of the patent 

term under 35 U.S.C. 156(d)(5) is 

appropriate. 

An interim extension under 35 U.S.C. 

156(d)(5) of the term of U.S. Patent No. 

8,858,612 is granted for a period of one 

year from the extended expiration date 

of the ’612 patent.
