-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice is issued in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209(e) and 
37 CFR 404.7(a)(1)(i). NASA hereby gives notice of its intent to grant 
an exclusive license in the United States to practice the invention 
described and claimed in U.S. Patent 7,621,670, entitled Unbalanced-
Flow, Fluid-Mixing Plug with Metering Capabilities and U.S. Patent 
7,347,089, entitled Gas Volume Contents Within A Container, Smart 
Volume Instrument, to APlus-QMC, LLC, having its principal place of 
business in McDonough, GA. The patent rights in these inventions as 
applicable 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.
