Copyright Office Publishes Technical Amendment on Fee for Designation
of Agent
The Copyright Office is making a technical amendment in the regulations
regarding fees for recordation of an interim or amended designation
of agent to receive notification of claimed infringement under
the Copyright Act. The Office is amending sections 201.38(e) and 201.38(f)
to reference the established section 201.3(c) fee schedule for recordation
of an interim designation of agent to receive notification of claimed infringement
under section 512(c)(2). (Read further
information.)
Copyright Office Updates Specialty Station List
The Copyright Office is compiling a new specialty station list to identify
commercial television broadcast stations that, according to their
owners, qualify as specialty stations for purposes of the former
distant signal carriage rules of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).
The list has been periodically updated to reflect an accurate listing of
specialty stations. To that end, the Copyright Office is again requesting
all interested owners of television broadcast stations that qualify
as specialty stations, including those that previously filed affidavits,
to submit sworn affidavits to the Copyright Office stating that the programming
of their stations meets the requirements specified under the FCC regulations
in effect on June 24, 1981. Affidavits should be received on or before April
9. (Read further information.)
