### 43094 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 139 / Friday, July 19, 2013 / Proposed Rules

1 Prior to the enactment of the Copyright Royalty and Distribution Reform Act of 2004, which established the Copyright Royalty Judges, rates and terms for the statutory license under section 112(e) were set under the Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panel system, which was administered by the Librarian of Congress. CFR 182.7255 of the GRAS regulations be amended to prohibit the use of Chondrus extract (carrageenin) in infant formula (Docket No. FDA–2013–P– 0472). (Carrageenin is an alternate name for carrageenan.)

Although the petitioner has submitted both a food additive petition and a citizen petition, for reasons of administrative efficiency, we may address all aspects of the petitions under the procedures established in section 409 of the FD&C Act and regulations issued under that section.

We have determined under 21 CFR 25.32(m) that this action is of a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required.

Dated: July 16, 2013. Dennis M. Keefe, Director, Office of Food Additive Safety, Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  In 1995, Congress enacted the Digital Performance in Sound Recordings Act, Public Law 104–39, which created an exclusive right for copyright owners of sound recordings, subject to certain limitations, to perform publicly sound recordings by means of certain digital audio transmissions. Among the limitations on the performance right was the creation of a statutory license for nonexempt, noninteractive digital subscription transmissions. 17 U.S.C. 114(d).

The scope of the section 114 statutory license was expanded in 1998 upon the passage of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA), Public Law 105–34, in order to allow for the public performance of a sound recording when made in accordance with the terms and rates of the statutory license, 17 U.S.C. 114(d), by a preexisting satellite digital audio radio service or as part of an eligible nonsubscription transmission. In addition to expanding the section 114 license, the DMCA also created a statutory license for the making of an ‘‘ephemeral recording’’ of a sound recording by certain transmitting organizations. 17 U.S.C. 112(e). This license allows entities that transmit performance of sound recordings to business establishments, pursuant to the limitations set forth in section 114(d)(1)(C)(iv), to make an ephemeral recording of a sound recording for a later transmission. Id. The license also provides a means by which a transmitting entity with a statutory license under section 114(f) can make more than one phonorecord permitted under the exemption set forth in section 112(a). 17 U.S.C. 112(e).

Chapter 8 of the Copyright Act requires the Copyright Royalty Judges (Judges) to conduct proceedings every five years to determine the rates and terms for ‘‘the activities described in section 112(e)(1) relating to the limitation on exclusive rights specified by section 114(d)(1)(C)(iv).’’ 1 17 U.S.C. 801(b)(1), 804(b)(2). In accordance with section 804(b)(2), the Judges commenced a proceeding to set rates and terms for the making of ephemeral sound recordings by a business establishment service on January 5, 2007, 72 FR 584, and published in the Federal Register on March 27, 2008, final regulations setting those rates and terms. 73 FR 16199. Therefore, the next proceeding was to be commenced in January 2012. 17 U.S.C. 804(b)(2).

Accordingly, the Judges published a notice commencing the current proceeding and requesting interested parties to submit their petitions to participate. 77 FR 133 (Jan. 3, 2012). Petitions to Participate were received from: Pandora Media, Inc.; Music Choice; DMX, Inc.; Muzak LLC; Music Reports, Inc.; Clear Channel Broadcasting, Inc.; SoundExchange, Inc.; and Sirius XM Radio, Inc. TheJudges set the timetable for the threemonth negotiation period, see 17 U.S.C. 803(b)(3), and directed the participants to submit their written direct statements no later than November 16, 2012. Subsequently, the Judges granted the participants’ request to extend the deadline to November 29, 2012, in order to allow the participants to finalize a settlement agreement. See Order Granting Joint Motion for Extension of Time for Filing Written Direct Statements, Docket No. 2012–1 CRB Business Establishments II (Nov. 14, 2012). On November 29, 2012, the Judges received a Motion to Adopt Settlement stating that all participants had reached a settlement obviating the need for a hearing.

Section 801(b)(7)(A) of the Copyright Act authorizes the Judges to adopt rates and terms negotiated by ‘‘some or all of the participants in a proceeding at any time during the proceeding’’ provided they are submitted to the Judges for approval. This section provides in part that the Judges must provide to both non-participants and participants to the rate proceeding who ‘‘would be bound

by the terms, rates, or other determination set by any agreement . . . an opportunity to comment on the agreement.’’ 17 U.S.C. 801(b)(7)(A)(i). Participants to the proceeding may also ‘‘object to [the agreement’s] adoption as a basis for statutory terms and rates.’’ Id. The Judges ‘‘may decline to adopt the agreement as a basis for statutory terms and rates for participants that are not parties to the agreement,’’ only ‘‘if any participant [to the proceeding] objects to the agreement and the [Judges] conclude, based on the record before them if one exists, that the agreement does not provide a reasonable basis for setting statutory terms or rates.’’ 17 U.S.C. 801(b)(7)(A)(ii).

Rates and terms adopted pursuant to section 801(b)(7)(A) are binding on all copyright owners of sound recordings and business establishment services making an ephemeral recording of a sound recording for the period January 1, 2014, through December 31, 2018.

As noted above, the public may comment and object to any or all of the proposed regulations contained in this notice. Such comments and objections must be submitted no later than August 19, 2013. List of Subjects in 37 CFR Part 384

**AGENCY :**  Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). **ACTION :**  Proposed rule.

**SUMMARY :**  EPA is proposing to approve the State of Connecticut’s June 22, 2012 request to redesignate the Connecticutportion of the New York-N. New JerseyLong Island, NY-NJ-CT fine particle (PM2.5) area (i.e., New Haven and Fairfield Counties; herein called the ‘‘Southwestern CT Area’’ or ‘‘the Area’’) from nonattainment to attainment for the 1997 annual National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS or standard), as well as for the 2006 24- hour PM2.5 NAAQS. As part of these proposed approvals, EPA proposes to approve (1) a State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision containing a 10-year maintenance plan for the Area; (2) a 2007 base-year emissions inventory for the Area; and (3) new motor vehicle emissions budgets (MVEBs) for the years 2017 and 2025 that are contained in the 10-year PM2.5 maintenance plan for the Area.

In addition, in the course of proposing to approve Connecticut’s request to redesignate the Southwestern CT Area, EPA addresses a number of additional issues, including the effects of two decisions of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia (D.C. Circuit Court): (1) The Court’s August 21, 2012 decision to vacate and remand to EPA the Cross-State Air Pollution Control Rule (CSAPR), and (2) the Court’s January 4, 2013 decision to remand to EPA two final rules implementing the 1997 PM2.5 standard.

This action is being taken in accordance with the Clean Air Act (CAA).
