LIBRARY OF CONGRESS 

Copyright Royalty Board 

Notice of Intent To Audit 

AGENCY: Copyright Royalty Board, 

Library of Congress. 

ACTION: Public notice. 

SUMMARY: The Copyright Royalty Judges 

are announcing receipt of two notices of 

intent to audit the 2009, 2010, and 2011 

statements of account submitted by 

Digitally Imported, Inc., and Beasley 

Broadcast Group, Inc., concerning the 

royalty payments made by each 

pursuant to two statutory licenses. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

LaKeshia Keys, Program Specialist, by 

telephone at (202) 707–7658 or email at 

crb@loc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Copyright Act, title 17 of the United 

States Code, grants to copyright owners 

of sound recordings the exclusive right 

to perform publicly sound recordings by 

means of certain digital audio 

transmissions, subject to certain 

limitations. Specifically, this right is 

limited by two statutory licenses. The 

section 114 license allows the public 

performance of sound recordings by 

means of digital audio transmissions by 

nonexempt noninteractive digital 

subscription services and eligible 

nonsubscription services. 17 U.S.C. 

114(f). The second license allows a 

service to make any necessary 

ephemeral reproductions to facilitate 

the digital transmission of the sound 

recording. 17 U.S.C. 112(e). 

Licensees may operate under these 

licenses provided they pay the royalty 

fees and comply with the terms set by 

the Copyright Royalty Judges. The rates 

and terms for the section 112 and 114 

licenses are set forth in 37 CFR part 380. 

As part of the terms set for these 

licenses, the Judges designated 

SoundExchange, Inc., as the 

organization charged with collecting the 

royalty payments and statements of 

account submitted by eligible 

nonsubscription services such as, 

among others, Commercial Webcasters 

and Broadcasters, and distributing the 

royalties to the copyright owners and 

performers entitled to receive such 

royalties under the section 112 and 114 

licenses. 37 CFR 380.4(b)(1) 

(Commercial Webcasters), 380.13(b)(1) 

(Broadcasters). As the designated 

Collective, SoundExchange may 

conduct a single audit of a licensee for 

any calendar year for the purpose of 

verifying their royalty payments. 

SoundExchange must first file with the 

Judges a notice of intent to audit a 

licensee and serve the notice on the 

licensee to be audited. 37 CFR 380.6(c), 

380.15(c). 

On February 15, 2012, 

SoundExchange filed with the Judges 

separate notices of intent to audit 

Digitally Imported, Inc., a Commercial 

Webcaster, and Beasley Broadcast 

Group, Inc., a Broadcaster, for the years 

2009, 2010, and 2011. Sections 380.6(c) 

and 380.15(c) require the Judges to 

publish a notice in the Federal Register 

within 30 days of receipt of the notice 

announcing the Collective’s intent to 

conduct an audit. 

In accordance with §§ 380.6(c) and 

380.15(c), the Copyright Royalty Judges 

are publishing today’s notice to fulfill 

this requirement with respect to 

SoundExchange’s respective notices of 

intent to audit Digitally Imported, Inc., 

and Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., each 

filed February 15, 2012. 

Dated: February 28, 2012.

Chief U.S. Copyright Royalty Judge.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title of Collection: Grantee Conflict of 

Interest Policies. 

OMB Control No.: 3145–NEW. 

Proposed Project: The National 

Science Foundation (NSF) is an 

independent Federal agency created by 

the National Science Foundation Act of 

1950, as amended (42 USC 1861–75). 

The Act states the purpose of the NSF 

is ‘‘to promote the progress of science; 

[and] to advance the national health, 

prosperity, and welfare by supporting 

research and education in all fields of 

science and engineering.’’ 

NSF has had a unique place in the 

Federal Government: It is responsible 

for the overall health of science and 

engineering across all disciplines. In 

contrast, other Federal agencies support 

research focused on specific missions 

such as health or defense. The 

Foundation also is committed to 

ensuring the nation’s supply of 

scientists, engineers, and science and 

engineering educators. 

NSF funds research and education in 

most fields of science and engineering. 

It does this through grants and 

cooperative agreements to more than 

2,000 colleges, universities, K–12 school 

systems, businesses, informal science 

organizations and other research 

organizations throughout the US. The 

Foundation accounts for about onefourth of Federal support to academic 

institutions for basic research. 

NSF proposes to conduct a survey to 

determinate how NSF grantees identify, 

oversee, and manage financial conflicts 

of interest in research funded by NSF. 

This survey focuses on NSF’s grantee’s 

conflict of interest policies and 

procedures, and on any conflicts of 

interest that were identified and 

managed during FY 2010. By examining 

how NSF grantees have identified and 

managed their financial conflicts of 

interest, this survey will help the 

Foundation determine whether there are 

any areas for improvement in NSF’s 

policies and guidelines. 

Use of the Information: Analysis of 

the responses is necessary to determine 

whether there are any areas for 

improvement in NSF’s policies and 

guidelines. 

Respondents: 

Burden on the Public: The Foundation 

estimates about 175 responses at 

approximately 15 hours per response; 

this computes to approximately 2625 

burden hours annually.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY 

COMMISSION 

[NRC–2011–0202; Docket Nos.: 50–245, 50– 

336 and 50–423] 

Millstone Power Station, Units 1, 2 and 

3, Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc.; 

Exemption 

1.0 Background 

Dominion Nuclear Connecticut, Inc. 

(DNC or the licensee) is the holder of 

Facility Operating License Nos. DRP–21, 

DPR–65 and NPF–49, which authorize 

operation of the Millstone Power 

Station, Unit Nos. 1, 2 and 3 (Millstone), 

respectively. The license provides, 

among other things, that the facility is 

subject to all rules, regulations, and 

orders of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC, the Commission) 

now or hereafter in effect. 

The facility consists of one boiling 

water reactor and two pressurized-water 

reactors located in New London County, 

Connecticut. The boiling water reactor 

is permanently shut down. 

2.0 Request/Action 

Title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR) Part 26, ‘‘Fitness 

For Duty Programs,’’ Subpart I, 

‘‘Managing Fatigue,’’ requires that 

individuals described in 10 CFR 

26.4(a)(1) through (a)(5) are subject to 

the work hour controls provided in 10 

CFR 26.205. By letter dated February 10, 

2011,1 supplemented by letters dated 

March 10, 2011, and February 6, 2012,2

and pursuant to 10 CFR 26.9, DNC, 

doing business as Dominion, requested 

an exemption from the requirements of 

10 CFR 26.205(c) and (d) during 

declarations of severe weather 

conditions such as tropical storm and 

hurricane force winds at the Millstone 

site. A subsequent response to requests 

for additional information (RAI) is dated 

August 31, 2011.3

The requested exemption applies to 

individuals who perform duties 

identified in 10 CFR 26.4(a)(1) through 

(a)(5) who are designated to perform 

work as a member of the Millstone 

hurricane response organization (HRO). 

The exemption request states that the 

station HRO typically consists of 

enough individuals to staff two 12-hour 

shifts of workers consisting of personnel 

from operations, maintenance, 

engineering, emergency planning, 

radiation protection, chemistry, site 

services and security to maintain the 

safe and secure operation of the plant. 

Entry conditions for the requested 

exemption occur when the site activates 

the Station Hurricane Command Center 

and the Site Vice President (or his 

designee) determines that travel 

conditions to the site will potentially 

become hazardous such that HRO 

staffing will be required—based on 

verifiable weather conditions. Verifiable 

weather conditions are defined in the 

exemption request as when the National 

Weather Service issues an Inland High 

Wind Warning for Hurricane Force 

Winds for New London County or when 

the Dominion Weather Center projects 

tropical storm or hurricane force winds 

onsite within 12 hours. 

After the high wind conditions pass, 

wind damage to the plant and 

surrounding area might preclude a 

sufficient number of individuals from 

immediately returning to the site. 

Additionally, if mandatory civil 

evacuations were ordered, this would 

delay the return of sufficient relief 

personnel. The exemption request states 

that the exemption will terminate when 

hurricane watches and warnings or 

inland hurricane watches and warnings 

have been cancelled; when weather
