Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 157 / Wednesday, August 16, 2017 / Proposed Rules 38857 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to amend 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet or more above the surface 

within a 6-mile radius of Highland 

Medical Center Heliport, Scottsboro, 

AL, by recognizing the heliport’s name 

change, (formerly Jackson County 

Hospital), and adjusting the geographic 

coordinates of the heliport to coincide 

with the FAAs aeronautical database. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in Paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016, 

and effective September 15, 2016, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designation 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. It, 

therefore: (1) Is not a ‘‘significant 

regulatory action’’ under Executive 

Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant 

rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies 

and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 

26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant 

preparation of a Regulatory Evaluation 

as the anticipated impact is so minimal. 

Since this is a routine matter that will 

only affect air traffic procedures and air 

navigation, it is certified that this 

proposed rule, when promulgated, will 

not have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

Availability and Summary of 

Documents for Incorporation by 

Reference 

This document proposes to amend 

FAA Order 7400.11A, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

dated August 3, 2016, and effective 

September 15, 2016. FAA Order

document. FAA Order 7400.11A lists 

Class A, B, C, D, and E airspace areas, 

air traffic service routes, and reporting 

points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is considering an 

amendment to Title 14, Code of Federal 

Regulations (14 CFR) part 71 to amend 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet or more above the surface 

within the 7-mile radius of Sugarloaf 

Regional Airport, Carrabassett, ME. A 

14.3-mile extension to the north would 

be created extending from the 7-mile 

radius of the airport for the new RNAV– 

(GPS–A) approach for the airport, and 

for continued safety and management of 

IFR operations. The geographic 

coordinates of the airport also would be 

adjusted to coincide with the FAAs 

aeronautical database. 

Class E airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005 of FAA 

Order 7400.11A, dated August 3, 2016, 

and effective September 15, 2016, which 

is incorporated by reference in 14 CFR 

71.1. The Class E airspace designation 

listed in this document will be 

published subsequently in the Order. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses

LIBRARY OF CONGRESS 

U.S. Copyright Office 

37 CFR Part 202 

[Docket No. 2017–9] 

Simplifying Deposit Requirements for 

Certain Literary Works and Musical 

Compositions 

AGENCY: U.S. Copyright Office, Library 

of Congress. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. 

SUMMARY: The United States Copyright 

Office is proposing to amend the 

regulations governing the deposit 

requirements for certain types of literary 

works and musical compositions. 

Specifically, the proposed rule will 

apply to certain types of ‘‘literary 

monographs,’’ which are defined, in 

part, as literary works published in one 

volume or a finite number of separate 

volumes. The proposed rule also applies 

to musical compositions that are 

published in the United States in print 

formats—that is, compositions 

published as ‘‘copies’’ rather than solely 

as phonorecords, as referenced in the 

Copyright Act. Under the current 

regulations, two copies of the best 

edition are generally needed to register 

these types of works and to comply with 

the mandatory deposit requirement. 

Under the proposed rule, copyright 

owners will be able to satisfy both 

requirements for literary monographs by 

submitting one copy of the best edition 

of the work, although the Office will 

retain the right to demand a second 

copy under the mandatory deposit 

provision should the Library need it. 

Copyright owners will also be able to 

satisfy both requirements for certain 

musical compositions by submitting one 

copy of the best edition. As part of these 

changes, the proposed rule also clarifies 

the deposit requirements for musical 

compositions published both in print 

and phonorecord formats. For musical 

works (i.e., musical compositions) 

published in both formats, the Office 

will require the submission of the print 

version for purposes of copyright 

registration. If the musical composition 

is published only as a phonorecord, the 

applicant should submit the 

phonorecord. All of these changes will 

improve the efficiency of registration 

and mandatory deposit for both the 

Office and copyright owners alike, 

ensuring that the Office has an adequate 

registration record and continuing to 

make these works available to the 

Library of Congress when needed for 

use in its collections or other 

disposition. The Office invites public 

comment on this proposal. 

DATES: Comments on the proposed rule 

must be made in writing and must be 

received by the Copyright Office no later 

than October 2, 2017. 

ADDRESSES: For reasons of government 

efficiency, the Copyright Office is using 

the regulations.gov system for the 

submission and posting of public 

comments in this proceeding. All 

comments are therefore to be submitted 

electronically through regulations.gov. 

Specific instructions for submitting 

comments are available on the 

Copyright Office Web site at https://

copyright.gov/rulemaking/singlecopy/. 

If electronic submission of comments is 

not feasible due to lack of access to a 

computer and/or the Internet, please 

contact the Office using the contact 

information below for special 

instructions.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

Under section 407 of the Copyright 

Act, when a work is published in the 

United States, the copyright owner or 

the owner of the exclusive right of 

publication is generally required to 

deposit two complete copies of the best 

edition of that work with the U.S. 

Copyright Office within three months 

after publication. 17 U.S.C. 407. ‘‘The 

‘best edition’ of a work’’ is defined as 

‘‘the edition, published in the United 

States at any time before the date of 

deposit, that the Library of Congress 

determines to be most suitable for its 

purposes.’’ 17 U.S.C. 101. The Act 

provides that copies deposited with the 

Office under section 407 are ‘‘for the use 

or disposition of the Library of 

Congress.’’ 17 U.S.C. 407(b). This is 

known as the ‘‘mandatory deposit’’ 

requirement. 

Separately, the Copyright Act’s 

provision governing copyright 

registration, section 408, specifies that, 

in the case of published works, an 

application for registration must be 

accompanied by ‘‘two complete copies 

or phonorecords of the best edition.’’ 17 

U.S.C. 408(b)(2). To avoid duplication of 

deposits, section 408 specifies that 

copies or phonorecords deposited under 

section 407 ‘‘may be used to satisfy the 

deposit provisions’’ of section 408 if 

they ‘‘are accompanied by the 

prescribed application and fee.’’ 17 

U.S.C. 408(b). 

Because the same copies can 

potentially be used for both registration 

and mandatory deposit, the deposit 

requirements set forth in sections 407 

and 408 are generally the same. 

Compare 17 U.S.C. 407(a)(1)–(2) 

(requiring two complete copies of the 

best edition of the work for purposes of 

mandatory deposit) with 17 U.S.C. 

408(b)(2) (requiring two complete copies 

of the best edition for the purpose of 

registering a published work). 

Sections 407 and 408 both give the 

Register of Copyrights (the ‘‘Register’’) 

broad authority to issue regulations 

concerning the specific nature of the 

copies that must be deposited, including 

the ability to exempt works from these 

statutory requirements. As relevant 

here, section 408 gives the Register 

authority to ‘‘require or permit, for 

particular classes [of works], . . . the 

deposit of only one copy . . . where two 

would normally be required’’ for 

copyright registration. 17 U.S.C. 

408(c)(1). Similarly, section 407 gives 

the Register authority to issue 

regulations that ‘‘require [the] deposit of 

only one copy’’ for the purpose of 

mandatory deposit. 17 U.S.C. 407(c). 

The legislative history confirms that 

Congress intended the Register to 

exercise this authority when needed to 

improve efficiencies within the 

Copyright Office. In explaining the 

Register’s authority under section 407, 

Congress expressed the desire ‘‘to make 

the deposit requirements as flexible as 

possible, so that there will be no 

obligation to make deposits where it 

serves no purpose, so that only one copy 

or phonorecord may be deposited where 

two are not needed, and so that 

reasonable adjustments can be made to 

meet practical needs in special cases.’’ 

H.R. Rep. No. 94–1476, at 151 (1976). 

Similarly, the legislative history for 

section 408 explains that the ‘‘[d]eposit 

of one copy . . . rather than two would 

probably be justifiable . . . in any case 

where the Library of Congress has no 

need for the deposit’’ or where the 

copies ‘‘are bulky, unwieldy . . . or 

otherwise impractical to file and retain 

as records identifying the work 

registered.’’ Id. at 154.
