ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: The Copyright Office of the Library of Congress is publishing a final rule establishing adjusted fees for its services. The adjusted fees will recover a significant part of the costs to the Office of registering claims and provide full cost recovery for many other services provided by the Office which benefit only or primarily the user of that service. The new fees are based on reliable information regarding the costs of providing services, and reflect cost savings associated with the implementation of electronic processing in the Copyright Office in 2007. Under the new fee structure, the fee for online registration of a basic claim will remain $35. The registration fee for Form CO will be raised from $45 to $50 and the registration fee for paper filings of Forms PA, SR, TX, VA, SE and faulty CO will be raised from $45 to $65. In a few instances, fees have been adjusted downward from the fees published in the notice of proposed rulemaking in light of comments received from the public. EFFECTIVE DATE: August 1, 2009.

Box 70400, Washington, DC 20024– 0400, Telephone (202) 707–8380. Telefax: (202) 707–8366. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background This final rule adjusts Copyright Office fees in accordance with the applicable provisions of title 17, United States Code, and the Technical Amendments Act, Pub. L. No. 105–80, 111 Stat. 1529 (1997), codified as 17 PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 32805 U.S.C. 708(b). The expenses of the Copyright Office have always been substantially funded through the charging of fees for the services provided. Nevertheless, fees have never provided full cost recovery for all expenditures of the Copyright Office. For the last fifty years, cost recovery through the charging of fees has ranged between 50% to 80% of the expenses of the Copyright Office. The current fee adjustment is forecasted to cover approximately 60% of the Copyright Office’s expenses. In 1997, Congress amended section 708 of the Copyright Act, delegating to the Register of Copyrights authority to adjust fees by regulation in accordance with a new procedure. Fees for services specifically enumerated in sections 708(a)(1)–(9), referred to as ‘‘statutory fees,’’ are adjusted according to the procedures set forth in section 708(b). This procedure requires the Register of Copyrights to complete a cost study, and forward an economic report and proposed fee schedule to Congress. The Register may implement the new rules after 120 days unless Congress enacts a law within that period disapproving the new fees. The Register also has authority under the law to adopt new fees for other services based on ‘‘the cost of providing the service.’’ 17 U.S.C. 708(a). These fees are for services not specifically enumerated in sections 708(a)(1)–(9), and for the purpose of this rulemaking, these fees are termed ‘‘discretionary fees.’’ As with the statutory fees, the Copyright Office adjusts the discretionary fees after conducting a cost study to determine the cost of providing the service and providing the public an opportunity to comment on the proposed fee changes. The Copyright Office has instituted fee adjustments under the Technical Amendments Act on four separate occasions. The first schedule was adopted in 1999. See 63 FR 43426 (August 13, 1998) and 64 FR 29518 (June 1, 1999). Three years later a second adjustment was made raising many copyright fees, but leaving the basic registration fee at $30. 67 FR 38003 (May 31, 2002). The third fee adjustment was adopted in 2006, in which most statutory fees were again raised in response to an increase in costs. At that time, the basic registration fee was increased from $30 to $45. 71 FR 15368 (March 28, 2006) and 71 FR 31089 (June 1, 2006). The registration fee was again adjusted in 2007, at which time the Office established a lower basic registration fee of $35 for copyright claims submitted electronically, while retaining the $45 fee for filing a paper E:\FR\FM\09JYR1.SGM 09JYR1
