of Emergency Unemployment
Compensation (EUC08).
Public Law 110–449 created a

Department of Labor produces a trigger
notice indicating which states qualify
for the Second-Tier of EUC08 benefits
and provides the beginning and ending
dates of the Second-Tier period for each
qualifying state. The trigger notice
covering state eligibility for the SecondTier of the EUC08 program can be found
at: https://ows.doleta.gov/unemploy/
claims_arch.asp. A new trigger notice is
posted at this location each week that
the program is in effect.
Beginning February 15, 2009, the
following states are in a high
unemployment period, resulting in their
triggering ‘‘on’’ to the Second-Tier of the
EUC08 program: Alabama, Maine,
Massachusetts, and New York.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
106(6) of the Copyright Act, title 17 of
the United States Code, gives a
copyright owner of sound recordings an
exclusive right to perform the
copyrighted works publicly by means of
a digital audio transmission. This right
is limited by section 114(d), which
allows certain non-interactive digital
audio services, including preexisting
satellite digital audio radio services, to
make digital transmissions of a sound
recording under a compulsory license.
Moreover, these services may make any
necessary ephemeral reproductions to
facilitate the digital transmission of the
sound recording under a second license
set forth in section 112(e) of the
Copyright Act.
Licensees may operate under these
licenses provided they pay the royalty
fees and comply with the terms of the
licenses set by the Copyright Royalty
Judges (‘‘Judges’’). On January 24, 2008,
the Judges issued their final
determination setting rates and terms for
the section 112 and 114 licenses for the

licensee and serve the notice on the
licensee to be audited. 37 CFR

in the Federal Register within 30 days
of receipt of the notice announcing the
Collective’s intent to conduct an audit.
In accordance with 37 CFR 382.15(c),
the Copyright Royalty Judges are
