30862 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 105 / Wednesday, June 2, 2010 / Notices 

operations. See 29 CFR 530.101. 

Consistent with FLSA sections 11(d) 

and 14(c), the Wage and Hour Division 

(WHD) of DOL regulates the 

employment of industrial homeworkers 

and workers with disabilities covered by 

special certificates and governs the 

application and approval process for 

obtaining the certificates. 

The FLSA also requires that the 

Secretary of Labor, to the extent 

necessary to prevent curtailment of 

employment opportunities, provide 

certificates authorizing the employment 

of full-time students at not less than 85 

percent of the applicable minimum 

wage or less than $1.60, whichever is 

higher, in (1) retail or service 

establishments and agriculture (29 

U.S.C. 214(b)(1); 29 CFR 519.1(a)); and 

(2) institutions of higher education (29 

U.S.C. 214(b)(3); 29 CFR 519.11(a)). The 

FLSA and the regulations set forth the 

application requirements as well as the 

terms and conditions for the 

employment of full-time students at 

subminimum wages under certificates 

and temporary authorization to employ 

such students at subminimum wages. 

The subminimum wage programs are 

designed to increase employment 

opportunities for full-time students. 

Regulations issued by the U.S. 

Department of Labor (DOL), Bureau of 

Apprenticeship and Training (BAT) no 

longer permit the payment of 

subminimum wages to apprentices in an 

approved program. 29 CFR 29.5(b)(5). 

The DOL, thus, has issued no apprentice 

certificates since 1987; however, the 

WHD must maintain the information 

collection in order for the agency to 

fulfill its statutory obligation under 

FLSA to maintain this program. In order 

to improve the management of its 

information collections, the DOL is 

proposing to consolidate the 

information collections related to 

special employment under the FLSA 

into a single OMB control number, 

1235–0001. A list of the current control 

numbers appears near the end of this 

Notice. 

II. Review Focus: The DOL is 

particularly interested in comments 

which: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

• Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• Enhance the quality, utility and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submissions 

of responses. 

III. Current Actions: The DOL seeks 

approval for the extension of this 

information collection in order to 

ensure effective administration of 

various special employment programs.

Notice of Intent To Grant Partially 

Exclusive License 

AGENCY: National Aeronautics and 

Space Administration. 

ACTION: Notice of intent to grant 

partially exclusive license. 

SUMMARY: This notice is issued in 

accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 

37 CFR 404.7(a)(1)(i). NASA hereby 

gives notice of its intent to grant a 

partially exclusive license in the United 

States to practice the inventions 

described and claimed in U.S. Patent 

No. 6,918,970 ‘‘High Strength 

Aluminum Alloy for High Temperature 

Applications’’ and Foreign Patent 

Application Serial No. PCT/US/03/ 

10372 ‘‘High Strength Aluminum Alloy 

for High Temperature Applications’’ to 

Twin City Fan Companies Ltd, having 

its principal place of business in 

Minneapolis, MN. The patent rights in 

this invention have been assigned to the 

United States of America as represented 

by the Administrator of the National 

Aeronautics and Space Administration. 

The prospective exclusive license will 

comply with the terms and conditions 

of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. 

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 exclusive 

license may be granted unless, within 

fifteen (15) days from the date of this 

published notice, NASA receives 

written objections including evidence 

and argument that establish that the 

grant of the license would not be 

consistent with the requirements of 35 

U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. 

Competing applications completed and 

received by NASA within fifteen (15) 

days of the date of this published notice 

will also be treated as objections to the 

grant of the contemplated 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, 5 U.S.C. 552. 

ADDRESSES: Objections relating to the 

prospective license may be submitted to
