Notice Pursuant to the National Cooperative Research and 
Production Act of 1993--Information Storage Industry Consortium--Heat 
Assisted Magnetic Recording

    Notice is hereby given that, on June 9, 2004, pursuant to section 
6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993, 
15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), Information Storage Industry 
Consortium (``INSIC'') has filed written notifications on behalf of a 
joint research and development venture with Heat Assisted Magnetic 
Recording (``HAMR'') simultaneously with the Attorney General and the 
Federal Trade Commission disclosing changes in its membership status. 
The notifications were filed for the purpose of extending the Act's 
provisions limiting the recovery of antitrust plaintiffs to actual 
damages under specified circumstances. Specifically, National Storage 
Industry Consortium, San Diego, CA has changed its name to Information 
Storage Industry Consortium, San Diego, CA. Also, a seventh participant 
has joined the INSIC-HAMR Project: specifically, the Regents of the 
University of Minnesota on behalf of the University of Minnesota, 
Minneapolis, MN.
    No other changes have been made in either the membership or planned 
activity of the group research project. Membership in this group 
research project remains open, and INSIC-HAMR intends to file 
additional written notifications disclosing all changes in membership.
    On January 8, 2002, INSIC-HAMR filed its original notification 
pursuant to section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice 
published a notice in the Federal Register pursuant to section 6(b) of 
the Act on March 8, 2002 (67 FR 10761).
