That describes how another projects using the Apache License should apply the headers. For code contributed to the ASF, this is the policy: http://www.apache.org/legal/src-headers.html

In particular:
--
If the source file is submitted with a copyright notice included in it, the copyright owner (or owner's agent) must either:
• remove such notices, or
• move them to the NOTICE file associated with each applicable project release, or
• provide written permission for the ASF to make such removal or relocation of the notices.
--

Having permission to remove the header below avoids us having to maintain the duplicate.
