currently priced outlets for selected
item categories where the priced items
are reinitiated two years after the
original initiation, thus offering the
chance that new goods will be selected
for pricing. An example is prescription
drugs where, based on current sales
data, a new sample of prescribed drugs
will be selected to replace the currently
priced drugs. Since this reselection will
include all currently dispensed drugs,
those prescription drugs that have been
introduced since the previous initiation
will have a chance to be selected.
Activity
A key element completed during 2004
was to convert all on going data
collection and transmission to
electronic systems. The introduction of
a Computer-Assisted Data Collection
(CADC) for the C&S portion of the CPI
has resulted in significant advantages by
increasing productivity and improving
the overall quality of the CPI. Electronic
data collection and transmission
provide long-term savings through a
major reduction of mail, paperwork, and
printing costs. Electronic systems allow
for price collection to cover the entire

use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.

Notice of Intent To Audit
Copyright Office, Library of
Congress.
ACTION: Public notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Copyright Office of the
Library of Congress is announcing
receipt of three notices of intent to audit
preexisting subscription services that
transmit sound recordings under
statutory licenses. The audits intend to
verify statements of account for the
years 2001, 2002, and 2003.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
114(d)(2) of title 17 of the United States
Code provides statutory licensing
requirements for subscription services
that perform sound recordings by means
of digital audio transmissions. Those
that were in existence and were

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
performing sound recordings by means
of interactive audio-only subscription
digital audio transmissions to the public
for a fee on or before July 31, 1998, are
known as ‘‘preexisting subscription
services.’’ Three services fall within this
category: DMX Music, Inc., Muzak LLC,
and Music Choice (‘‘the Services’’).
These services make payments of
royalty fees to and file reports of sound
recording performances with
SoundExchange. SoundExchange is a
collecting rights entity that was
designated by the Librarian of Congress
to collect and distribute royalty fee
payments made under section 114(d)(2)
by the three preexisting subscription
services. See 68 FR 39837 (July 3, 2003).
Pursuant to section 260.5 of title 37 of
the Code of Federal Regulations, an
interested party may initiate an audit of
any one of the three preexisting
services. SoundExchange, as the
designated collector and distributor of
royalties paid by preexisting
subscription services to interested
copyright parties, is an interested party
and may conduct one audit per calendar
year of one or all of the Services for the
purpose of verifying their statements of
account. As a preliminary matter, the
interested party is required to submit a
notice of its intent to audit a preexisting
subscription service with the Copyright
Office and to serve this notice on the
service to be audited. 37 CFR 260.5(c).
On December 21, 2004,
SoundExchange filed with the
Copyright Office three notices of intent
to audit the preexisting subscription

and 2003. As stated in section 260.5(c),
the Copyright Office then is required to
publish a notice in the Federal Register
within thirty days of receipt of the filing
announcing an interested party’s intent
to conduct an audit.
In accordance with this regulation the
Office is publishing today’s notice to
fulfill this requirement with respect to
SoundExchange’s notices of intent to
audit.

NUCLEAR REGULATORY
COMMISSION
[Docket Nos. 030–05980, 030–05982]
[License Nos. 37–00030–02, 37–00030–08,
EA–04–148]
In the Matter of Safety Light
Corporation, Bloomsburg, PA; Order
Suspending License (Effective
Immediately)
Safety Light Corporation (the Licensee
or SLC) is the holder of two Byproduct
Material Licenses issued by the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC or
Commission) pursuant to 10 CFR part
30 for the facility at 4150–A Old
Berwick Road near Bloomsburg,
Pennsylvania. License No. 37–00030–02
authorizes the Licensee to characterize
and decommission its contaminated
facilities, equipment, and land. License
No. 37–00030–08 authorizes, among
other things, the Licensee to
manufacture self-luminous signs and
foils using tritium. The licenses were
last renewed on December 28, 1999, and
are due to expire on December 31, 2004.
On December 28, 1999, License Nos.
37–00030–02 and 37–00030–08 were
renewed. As part of these renewals,
License Conditions were included that
exempted the Licensee from certain of
the Commission’s financial assurance
requirements and required the Licensee
to develop plans which would address
the License Termination Rule (10 CFR
part 20, subpart E). This exemption was
granted in response to the Licensee’s
request to the Commission to exempt
the Licensee from the financial
assurance decommissioning
requirements set forth in 10 CFR 30.32
and 10 CFR 30.35, based on the lack of
sufficient funds available at the time to
assure that adequate financial ability
existed to decommission the facility. In
lieu of complying with 10 CFR 30.35,
the Licensee committed to (1) develop a
schedule and plan, for NRC review and
approval, for additional site
characterization and to develop revised
cost estimates including strategies for
site decommissioning that would
comply with the criteria specified in the
license termination rule, 10 CFR 30.36,
and (2) contribute specified monthly
payments ($7,000 per month in 2000;
$8,000 per month in 2001 and 2002; and
$9,000 per month in 2003 and 2004) to
a decommissioning trust fund over the
life of the license to support
decommissioning activities. The NRC
specifically approved an exemption, in
Condition 16 of Amendment No. 51 for
License 37–00030–02 and Condition
20.A of Amendment No. 13 for License
37–00030–08, provided that the licensee
make the specified monthly payments
PO 00000
Frm 00076
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
into a decommissioning trust fund. The
NRC granted the renewal of the two
licenses based on the Licensee’s
continued ability to provide sufficient
remediation funding and adequate
security of radioactive materials at the
facility.
On November 21, 2003, the NRC
learned, during telephone conversations
with Licensee management, that the
Licensee had not made all payments
into its decommissioning trust fund, as
required by Condition 16 (License No.
37–00030–02) and Condition 20.A
(License No. 37–00030–08). The
Licensee failed to make several
prescribed deposits into the
decommissioning trust fund over the
period from May 2001 to December
2002. The Licensee made all overdue
payments by February 2003 to address
the deficit that existed at the end of
2002. However, starting in January 2003,
the Licensee again failed to make the
total prescribed payments into the
decommissioning trust fund, resulting
in a deficit of $81,000 by the end of
November 2003.
Upon learning of the foregoing, on
December 19, 2003, the NRC issued a
Demand for Information to SLC which
required the Licensee to submit to the
NRC the following information:
1. Detailed schedule for making all
overdue payments, with interest, to the
decommissioning trust fund;
2. Reasons why the Licensee did not
make the required payments, as
scheduled, to the decommissioning trust
fund;
1. Reasons why the NRC should have
confidence that the Licensee will, in the
future, make the required monthly
deposits to the decommissioning trust
fund;
2. Assurance from the Licensee, that,
should it encounter any difficulty
making required monthly deposits in
the future, it will promptly notify the
NRC that there will be a delay in making
a specific deposit, and provide the
reasons for the delay;
3. Reasons why the NRC should have
confidence that in the future, the
Licensee will adhere to license
conditions and applicable NRC
requirements;
4. Reasons why, in light of the
Licensee’s past failure to make all
required payments to the trust fund,
License Nos. 37–00030–02 and 37–
00030–08 should not be modified,
suspended, or revoked.
On January 16, 2004, the Licensee
responded to the Demand for
Information and indicated, in part, that
the Licensee could not submit a detailed
schedule for making overdue payments
given the Licensee’s inability to
