(2006)Environmental Assessment AGENCY: Minerals Management Service, Interior. ACTION: Notice of availability of an environmental assessment. SUMMARY: The Minerals Management Service
(MMS)is issuing this notice to advise the public, pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), as amended, 42 U.S.C. 4321 *et seq.* , that MMS has prepared an environmental assessment
(EA)for proposed Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS)oil and gas Lease Sale 200 in the Western Gulf of Mexico
(GOM)(Lease Sale 200) scheduled for August 2006. Proposed Lease Sale 200 is the fifth Western Planning Area
(WPA)lease sale scheduled in the Outer Continental Shelf Oil and Gas Leasing Program: 2002-2007 (5-Year Program, OCS EIS/EA MMS 2002-006). The preparation of this EA is an important step in the decisionmaking process for Lease Sale 200. The proposal for Lease Sale 200 (the offering of all available unleased acreage in the WPA) and its alternatives (the proposed action excluding the unleased blocks near biologically sensitive topographic features and no action) were identified by the MMS Director in January 2002 following the Call for Information and Nominations/Notice of Intent to Prepare an Environmental Impact Statement
(EIS)and were analyzed in the Gulf of Mexico OCS Oil and Gas Lease Sales: 2003-2007; Central Planning Area Sales 185, 190, 194, 198, and 201; Western Planning Area Sales 187, 192, 196, and 200—Final Environmental Impact Statement; Volumes I and II (Multisale EIS, OCS EIS/EA MMS 2002-052). The Multisale EIS analyzed the effects of a typical WPA lease sale by presenting a set of ranges for resource estimates, projected exploration and development activities, and impact-producing factors for any of the proposed WPA lease sales. The level of activities projected for proposed Lease Sale 200 falls within these ranges. In this EA, which tiers from the Multisale EIS and incorporates that document by reference, MMS reexamined the potential environmental effects of the proposed action and its alternatives based on any new information regarding potential impacts and issues that were not available at the time the Multisale EIS was prepared. No new significant impacts were identified for proposed Lease Sale 200 that were not already assessed in the Multisale EIS. As a result, MMS determined that a supplemental EIS is not required and prepared a Finding of No New Significant Impact (FONNSI). FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Dennis Chew, Minerals Management Service, Gulf of Mexico OCS Region, 1201 Elmwood Park Boulevard, MS 5410, New Orleans, Louisiana 70123-2394. You may also contact Mr. Chew by telephone at
(504)736-2793. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In November 2002, MMS prepared a Multisale EIS that addressed nine proposed Federal actions that offer for lease areas on the GOM OCS that may contain economically recoverable oil and gas resources. Federal regulations allow for several related or similar proposals to be analyzed in one EIS (40 CFR 1502.4). Since each proposed lease sale and its projected activities are very similar each year for each planning area, a single EIS was prepared for the nine Central Planning Area
(CPA)and WPA lease sales scheduled in the 5-Year Program. Under the 5-Year Program, five annual areawide lease sales are scheduled for the CPA (Lease Sales 185, 190, 194, 198, and 201) and five annual areawide lease sales are scheduled for the WPA (Lease Sales 184, 187, 192, 196, and 200). Lease Sale 184 was not addressed in the Multisale EIS; a separate EA was prepared for that proposal. The Multisale EIS addressed CPA Lease Sales 185, 190, 194, 198, and 201 scheduled for 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007, respectively, and WPA Lease Sales 187, 192, 196, and 200 scheduled for 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006, respectively. Although the Multisale EIS addresses nine proposed lease sales, at the completion of the EIS process, decisions were made only for proposed CPA Lease Sale 185 and proposed WPA Lease Sale 187. In the year prior to each subsequent proposed lease sale, an additional NEPA review (an EA) has been conducted to address any new information relevant to that proposed action. After completion of the EA, MMS determines whether to prepare a FONNSI or a Supplemental EIS. The MMS then prepares and sends Consistency Determinations (CD's) to the affected States to determine whether the proposed lease sale is consistent with their federally-approved State coastal zone management programs. Finally, MMS will solicit comments via the Proposed Notice of Sale
(PNOS)from the governors of the affected States on the size, timing, and location of the proposed lease sale. The tentative schedule for the prelease decision process for Lease Sale 200 is as follows: CD's sent to affected States, March 2006; PNOS sent to governors of the affected States, March 2006; Final Notice of Sale published in the **Federal Register** , July 2006; and Lease Sale 200, August 2006.

On May 9, 2005, the ALJ issued his final ID in this investigation finding a violation of section 337 based on his findings that claims 4, 7, 8, and 11-15 of the ‘600 patent are not invalid or unenforceable, and are infringed by respondent's products. On July 8, 2005, the Commission issued notice that it had determined not to review the ALJ's final ID on violation, thereby finding a violation of section 337. 70 FR 40731 (July 14, 2005). The Commission also requested briefing on the issues of remedy, the public interest, and bonding. *Id.* Submissions on the issues of remedy, the public interest, and bonding were filed by all parties. On August 8, 2005, the Commission terminated the investigation, and issued a limited exclusion order and a cease and desist order covering respondent's systems for detecting and removing computer viruses or worms, components thereof, and products containing same that infringe claims 4, 7, 8, and 11-15 of the ‘600 patent. On September 13, 2005, complainant Trend Micro filed a complaint for enforcement of the Commission's remedial orders. On October 7, 2005, the Commission determined to institute a formal enforcement proceeding to determine whether Fortinet was in violation of the Commission's cease and desist order issued in the investigation and what, if any, enforcement measures were appropriate. 70 FR 76076 (December 22, 2005). On October 26, 2005, Fortinet filed a request for an advisory opinion under Commission rule 210.79, 19 CFR 210.79, that would declare that Fortinet's anti-virus “FortiGate” products incorporating Fortinet's newly redesigned anti-virus software does not infringe claims 4, 7, 8, and 11-15 of the ‘600 patent and, therefore, is not covered by the Commission's cease and desist and limited exclusion orders, issued on August 8, 2005. On December 16, 2005, the Commission determined to institute an advisory opinion proceeding to determine whether Fortinet's redesigned anti-virus software infringes the asserted claims of the ‘600 patent. On January 11, 2006, the presiding ALJ consolidated the enforcement proceeding and advisory opinion proceeding. On December 16, 2005, Trend Micro moved for summary determination that Fortinet had violated sections III(B), III(D), and III(E) of the cease and desist order. On January 12, 2006, the ALJ issued an ID (Order No. 26) granting Trend Micro's motion for summary determination that Fortinet violated section III(B) of the cease and desist order. On February 9, 2006, the Commission determined not to review Order No. 26. On December 21, 2005, Fortinet filed a request for an additional advisory opinion concerning the so-called Clearswift license, which it later withdrew on February 15, 2006. On January 27, 2006, Trend Micro and Fortinet entered into a settlement agreement that resolves their dispute before the Commission. On February 14, 2006, Trend Micro and Fortinet filed a joint motion to terminate the consolidated proceedings on the basis of the settlement agreement. The joint motion included a petition to rescind the limited exclusion and cease and desist orders issued in the investigation, and a petition to vacate Order No. 26. On February 27, 2006, the Commission investigative attorney filed a response in support of the joint motion to terminate and in support of the joint petitions to rescind the limited exclusion and cease and desist orders and to vacate Order No. 26. On February 28, 2006, the ALJ issued an ID (Order No. 31) granting the joint motion to terminate the consolidated enforcement and advisory opinion proceedings based on the settlement agreement. The ALJ also recommended that the Commission rescind the limited exclusion order and cease and desist order issued in the investigation and vacate Order No. 26. No party petitioned for review of the ID. The Commission has determined not to review the subject ID granting the parties' joint motion to terminate the consolidated enforcement and advisory opinion proceeding. Additionally, the Commission has determined that the parties' settlement agreement satisfies the requirement of section 337(k) and Commission rule 210.76(a)(1), 19 CFR 210.76(a)(1), for changed conditions of fact or law and has therefore issued an order rescinding the limited exclusion order and cease and desist order previously issued by the Commission in the underlying investigation. Finally, in view of specific terms in the settlement agreement, the Commission has determined to vacate Order No. 26. The authority for the Commission's determination is contained in section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in sections 210.42 and 210.76 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR 210.42 and 210.76). Issued: March 29, 2006. By order of the Commission. Marilyn R. Abbott, Secretary to the Commission. [FR Doc. 06-3215 Filed 4-3-06; 8:45 am]
