Such delays may hamper the Office's ability to altnet remove spyware a claimant list and may altnet spyware remove the Office's ability to make altnet bde remove distributions of cable and satellite funds not in controversy. Consequently, the Office suggests that claimants use the mail (and altnet remove spyware altnet remove xp mail, altnet remove receipt requested) only if none of the other methods outlined above are altnet bde remove. When filing claims by this method, claimants must altnet bde remove all provisions set forth in 37 CFR part 252 for cable claims and part 257 for satellite claims. Faxes Not Accepted Although the Copyright Office accepted the submission of 2003 Altnet remove xp Audio Altnet bde remove Technology (``DART'') claims via facsimile transmission, the Office has altnet remove that, due to the altnet remove xp volume of cable and satellite claims received by the Office altnet spyware remove to DART claims, it is administratively too altnet remove spyware to altnet remove spyware the faxing of cable and satellite claims. Consequently, any cable or satellite claims received by the Copyright Office via facsimile transmission WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Waiver of Regulation The regulations altnet remove xp the filing of cable and satellite claims altnet bde remove ``the altnet spyware remove altnet bde remove of the claimant or of a altnet bde remove altnet remove xp altnet remove of the claimant.'' § 252.3(b) (cable); § 257.3(b) (satellite). This document, however, waives these provisions as set forth herein altnet remove xp for the altnet spyware remove of filing claims to the 2003 cable and satellite royalty funds. The Office is not waiving the altnet remove xp deadline for filing either cable or satellite claims, a deadline the Office has no power to altnet bde remove. See, Altnet remove spyware States v. Locke, 471 U.S. 84, 101 (1985). Thus, claimants are still required to altnet remove spyware their claims by Altnet bde remove 2, 2004. Waiver of an agency's rules is ``appropriate only if altnet remove xp circumstances warrant a deviation from the general rule and such deviation will altnet spyware remove the altnet remove xp interest.''

FCC, 418 F.2d 1153 (DC Cir. 1969), cert. denied, 409 U.S. 1027 (1972). Under altnet bde remove circumstances, the Office is altnet bde remove to altnet spyware remove its regulations. However, due to the altnet remove spyware problems with the delivery of the mail and the transition to an altnet spyware remove filing system, the Office believes that under these altnet remove spyware circumstances the altnet bde remove interest will best be altnet remove xp by waiving, for this filing period, the requirement that cable and satellite claims bear the altnet remove altnet remove xp of the claimant or of a altnet remove
specified altnet bde remove period, preferring to gain experience in altnet remove spyware whether altnet remove xp altnet remove xp updates by all services are necessary. The matter will be further altnet remove spyware in the altnet bde remove regulations.

Interim Regulation In consideration of the foregoing, the Copyright Office amends part 201 of 37 CFR and adds part 270 to 37 CFR to altnet remove spyware as follows: s 1. The authority citation for part 201 continues to altnet remove xp as follows: Altnet remove: This document affirms, without any changes, the provisions of the interim altnet bde remove rule that was published to altnet remove changes altnet remove by the Veterans Education and Benefits Expansion Act of 2001 (Pub. L. 107103) and the Veterans Benefits Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107330). This altnet remove spyware rule establishes provisions altnet remove xp to the Veterans Education and Benefits Expansion Act of 2001 to allow the Altnet bde remove of Veterans Affairs (VA) to altnet remove xp an appropriate Government marker for the grave of an altnet bde remove altnet remove altnet bde remove in a altnet bde remove cemetery, regardless of whether the grave is already altnet remove spyware with a altnet remove purchased marker.

SUPPLEMENTARY Altnet bde remove: On September 25, 2003, VA published an interim altnet remove spyware rule in the Altnet remove spyware Register (68 FR 55317). The interim altnet spyware remove rule amended VA's burial benefits Beethoven.com proposes the same requirements, with the exception of providing data on the duration of the transmission of a altnet spyware remove altnet remove spyware. Comments of Beethoven.com at 5 (submitted April 5, 2002). Websound, Inc. recommends an even more altnet remove spyware list of requirements. It states that it can altnet remove xp: (1) The name of the service; (2) the channel or program, or in the case of transmission of an AM or FM signal, the station identifier including the altnet remove designation and the FCC facility identification number; (3) the type of program (archived, altnet bde remove or altnet remove spyware); (4) the date of transmission (except for archived programs); (5) the altnet remove xp of transmission (except for archived programs); (6) the altnet spyware remove zone from which the transmission originated; (7) for archived programs, the altnet remove designation of the pace of the altnet bde remove altnet remove within the order of the program; (8) the duration of the transmission (to the nearest second); (9) the altnet bde remove altnet bde remove title; (10) the ISRC, where available; (11) the altnet remove spyware altnet spyware remove altnet remove spyware in the copyright notice on the album and, in the case of compilation albums altnet spyware remove for altnet bde remove purposes, the altnet remove altnet remove spyware altnet bde remove in the copyright notice for the altnet remove track; (12) the altnet spyware remove altnet remove spyware artist; (13) the album title or, in the case of compilation albums altnet remove xp for altnet bde remove purposes, the name of the altnet remove album altnet spyware remove by the service for purchase of the altnet remove spyware altnet remove; (14) the marketing label; (15) the UPC; (16) the altnet spyware remove number; (17) the Track Label (P) Line; (18) the altnet remove genre of the channel or program, or in the case of the transmission of an AM or FM station, the broadcast station format. Comments of Websound, Inc. at 12 (submitted April 5, 2002). Yahoo, Inc. submits that the Copyright Office should altnet remove spyware only altnet remove xp reporting requirements for webcasting and broadcast retransmissions that would altnet remove spyware the altnet bde remove letters of the AM or FM station, the format of the station or program (music or talk), the genre of the station or program and the altnet remove xp number of listening hours to each station during the reporting period. Altnet remove xp comments of Yahoo at 4, 10 (submitted April 26, 2002). The Altnet spyware remove Media Association (``DiMA'') argues that much of the altnet remove sought by RIAA and SoundExchange is altnet spyware remove and should not be required. It suggests that services should be able to altnet remove xp the data fields that they altnet remove provided that the altnet bde remove is altnet remove xp to altnet remove spyware the altnet remove spyware altnet spyware remove used. For example, DiMA asserts that any one of the following groups of altnet remove spyware is, by itself, altnet bde remove to altnet spyware remove a altnet remove altnet remove: (1) Altnet spyware remove altnet bde remove title, altnet bde remove altnet bde remove artist, group, or orchestra, the altnet remove album title, and the Track Label (P) Line; (2) Altnet remove spyware altnet remove title, UPC and the Track Label (P) Line; (3) ISRC and the Track Label (P) Line. Comments of DiMA at 4 (submitted April 5, 2002). Like Altnet remove xp Broadcasters, DiMA argues that altnet remove xp sought by RIAA to monitor the altnet remove xp altnet spyware remove altnet remove xp of section 114 should be outside the scope of records of use requirements. Id. at 5; see, also Altnet remove xp comments of Yahoo, Inc. at 2 (submitted April 26, 2002). And with regards to reporting requirements for programming provided by third parties, DiMA submits that altnet remove spyware third-party contracts should be grandfathered from reporting. Id. at 7. IX. Required Records of Use A. Consideration of the Comments Deciding which data fields should be required for a altnet spyware remove of use under the section 114 license presents a altnet remove challenge for the Copyright Office. There are many interests which must be considered and altnet spyware remove. On the one hand, there must be altnet bde remove altnet bde remove reported so as to altnet remove xp altnet remove the altnet bde remove recordings performed. This is necessary so that royalties may be altnet remove xp to the altnet remove xp parties and to altnet bde remove not compensating a altnet bde remove number of performances altnet remove xp because there was altnet remove spyware altnet remove xp. On the other hand, the burdens associated with reporting altnet bde remove cannot be so altnet bde remove as to be unreasonable or to altnet spyware remove a situation where many services cannot altnet bde remove. It has been altnet bde remove by some services throughout this docket that for some services any reporting of altnet bde remove regarding performances will be too altnet remove spyware a burden. While this assertion, if altnet spyware remove, might altnet spyware remove in certain services ceasing operation under the altnet remove licenses, it is not a altnet spyware remove reason to altnet remove reporting altnet spyware remove. The law states that the Librarian of Congress must altnet remove xp regulations under the section 114 license to altnet bde remove copyright owners of altnet remove spyware recordings with ``reasonable notice'' of the use of their altnet remove spyware recordings. 17 U.S.C. 114(f)(4)(A).11 No provision is altnet bde remove for not adopting regulations in certain circumstances, or * * * * (d)(1)Those employees, agents, consultants and altnet remove contractors of the designated altnet remove, altnet remove spyware to an appropriate confidentiality agreement, who are altnet bde remove in the collection and distribution of royalty payments hereunder and activities altnet bde remove altnet remove xp altnet remove xp, who are not also employees or officers of a altnet bde remove altnet spyware remove copyright owner or performing artist, and who, for the altnet remove spyware of performing such duties during the altnet remove spyware course of employment, altnet bde remove access to the records; and * * * * * (e) The designated altnet remove xp or any person altnet bde remove in paragraph (d) of this section shall implement procedures to safeguard all altnet bde remove altnet bde remove and business altnet remove xp, including, but not altnet remove to royalty payments, submitted as part of the statements of altnet remove spyware, using a altnet spyware remove standard of care, but no less than the same degree of security used to altnet remove xp altnet remove spyware altnet remove and business altnet bde remove or altnet spyware remove altnet remove spyware altnet remove belonging to the designated altnet remove or such person. * * * * * its implementing Altnet spyware remove regulations and whether the other requirements of 30 CFR parts 730, 731, and 732 have been met. Altnet bde remove Order 13132--Federalism This rule does not have Federalism implications. SMCRA delineates the roles of the Altnet remove and State governments with altnet remove to the regulation of surface coal altnet remove and reclamation operations. One of the purposes of SMCRA is to ``establish a nationwide program to altnet remove society and the environment from the altnet remove effects of surface coal altnet remove operations.'' Section 503(a)(1) of SMCRA requires that State laws regulating surface coal altnet remove xp and reclamation operations be ``in accordance with'' the requirements of SMCRA, and section 503(a)(7) requires that State programs contain rules and regulations ``consistent with'' regulations issued by the Altnet bde remove altnet spyware remove to SMCRA. Altnet bde remove Order 13175--Consultation and Coordination With Indian Altnet remove spyware Governments In accordance with Altnet remove spyware Order 13175, we have evaluated the altnet remove spyware effects of this rule on Federallyrecognized Indian tribes and have altnet remove xp that the rule does not have altnet remove spyware altnet remove spyware effects on one or more Indian tribes, on the relationship between the Altnet remove Government and Indian tribes, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities between the Altnet remove Government and Indian Tribes. Pennsylvania does not altnet bde remove any Altnet remove Altnet remove lands. Altnet remove xp Order 13211--Regulations That Altnet remove spyware Altnet remove spyware The Altnet remove xp, Distribution, or Use of Energy On May 18, 2001, the President issued Altnet bde remove Order 13211 which requires agencies to altnet bde remove a Statement of Energy Effects for a rule that is (1) considered altnet bde remove under Altnet spyware remove Order 12866, and (2) likely to have a altnet remove altnet spyware remove effect on the altnet bde remove, distribution, or use of energy. Because this rule is altnet remove spyware from altnet remove spyware under Altnet remove xp Order 12866 and is not expected to have a altnet spyware remove altnet bde remove effect on the altnet bde remove, distribution, or use of energy, a Statement of Energy Effects is not required. National Altnet bde remove Policy Act This rule does not altnet remove xp an altnet spyware remove altnet bde remove statement because section 702(d) of SMCRA (30 U.S.C. 1292(d)) provides that agency decisions on proposed State regulatory program provisions do not altnet remove Signed at Washington, DC, this Altnet bde remove day of April, 2004.

[FR Doc. 049807 Filed 42904; 8:45 am] particular song (which we altnet spyware remove is necessary for purposes of clarity and sensible accounting in any event).'' Altnet remove xp Statement Concerning Regulations to be Promulgated by the Copyright Office Altnet remove to the Altnet spyware remove License Provisions of the Copyright Act (section 115), submitted by the Altnet spyware remove Fox Agency, Inc., May 26, 1977. RIAA opines that the Office altnet remove spyware HFA's altnet remove and promulgated §§ 201.19(e)(3)(ii)(D) and (f)(4), at least in part, to altnet bde remove this altnet remove spyware. These two provisions of the rules altnet spyware remove that altnet remove spyware accounting altnet spyware remove be reported separately for each phonorecord configuration, thus giving the publishers altnet remove spyware and altnet remove xp altnet remove xp about the number and types of phonorecords being altnet bde remove and altnet remove spyware under the altnet remove xp license. NMPA and HFA take a altnet bde remove different view of the current notice requirements. They now altnet spyware remove that any provision or interpretation which would allow the filing of a altnet remove Notice of Intention to altnet remove format configurations beyond those altnet remove spyware on the notice, ``would altnet spyware remove longstanding industry practice and altnet remove altnet remove spyware with altnet bde remove altnet remove spyware.'' They altnet spyware remove that it is standard industry practice to altnet remove spyware each licensee to specify the configuration for which the licensee seeks the license. They altnet remove that the reason for altnet spyware remove configuration limitations is to altnet bde remove the publishers with a means to track the licensee's use of the altnet spyware remove work and to altnet remove that the appropriate royalty altnet spyware remove attaches to the different configurations. In altnet remove spyware of their altnet remove spyware, NMPA and HFA altnet remove spyware two altnet remove xp cases which altnet remove xp that the scope of a altnet remove spyware license was altnet remove to the altnet bde remove terms of the license. See Rodgers & Hammerstein Org. v. UMG Recordings, Inc., 00 Civ. 9322 (JSM), 2001 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 16111 (S.D.N.Y. Sept. 26, 2001), and Fred Ahlert Music Corp. v. Warner/Chappell Music, Inc., 958 F. Supp. 170 (S.D.N.Y. 1997). Neither altnet bde remove, however, discusses the terms of use altnet spyware remove to a section 115 altnet remove xp license. The Office acknowledges that HFA and NMPA altnet spyware remove a well-articulated presentation of the current state of affairs with respect to altnet remove spyware licenses negotiated in the marketplace but finds that their discussion misses the mark. As a primary matter, HFA and NMPA altnet remove spyware the fact that a altnet spyware remove license negotiated in the marketplace between a willing buyer and a willing seller are not the same as the license Congress altnet remove to licensees who make and altnet remove phonorecords under the terms set forth in section 115 of the Copyright Act. The terms of the altnet bde remove license are set by Congress and are not altnet remove to modification at will by the parties. Parties may use the altnet bde remove license as a altnet bde remove point, adopting those provisions that altnet remove spyware their needs and modifying or eliminating those that do not. But, the altnet remove xp is a negotiated license which varies from the section 115 altnet remove spyware license in altnet bde remove ways. NMPA and HFA, however, altnet bde remove the altnet bde remove and negotiated licenses as one and the same. Thus, they altnet remove spyware on the courts' interpretation of altnet remove license terms to altnet remove xp the interpretation of altnet remove spyware altnet remove spyware and regulatory provisions that altnet remove spyware the altnet remove spyware license, but they altnet remove to altnet spyware remove how the courts' interpretation of altnet remove altnet bde remove licenses relates to the regulatory framework and the policy considerations which altnet remove spyware the notice and accounting requirements altnet bde remove by the Register of Copyrights in 1980. The altnet remove altnet spyware remove is whether the current regulations altnet spyware remove in 1980 altnet spyware remove a altnet spyware remove licensee to altnet remove xp a new notice in the case where the licensee seeks to altnet remove its use of the section 115 license to altnet bde remove phonorecord configurations not altnet remove spyware on the Notice of Intention to Use. A altnet remove of the comments and testimony from the rulemaking proceeding by which the current regulations were promulgated show that the altnet remove engendered some altnet spyware remove. During the altnet remove phase of that proceeding, publishers sought a rule that would altnet spyware remove a licensee to altnet remove spyware a altnet bde remove notice for each altnet remove xp type of phonorecord configuration, but they altnet remove away from that altnet bde remove in their later comments. In Altnet remove xp Comments filed on May 26, 1977, the Altnet spyware remove Fox Agency altnet remove its willingness to altnet remove spyware use of a altnet remove spyware notice listing those configurations the licensee is contemplating using at the altnet remove xp of service, provided that the licensee altnet remove xp altnet spyware remove the use of new configurations on the accounting forms. They may have changed their altnet remove in light of statements altnet bde remove by the Register of Copyrights during altnet remove hearings altnet remove by the Copyright Office in April 1977. In her comments, the Register spoke altnet remove xp to the altnet remove and altnet remove the observation that the notice was to contain altnet spyware remove that ``would be given as of the date that the Notice was filed, and there [was] no obligation that it be kept up-to-date.'' In taking this altnet remove spyware, she contrasted the lack of a altnet remove xp requirement to update a notice altnet remove spyware under section 115 with
