Download as PDF 61176 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 224 / Monday, November 23, 2009 / Notices Paragraph (d)(2) requires employers to certify in writing that they have performed the hazard assessment. The certification must include the date and the person certifying that the hazard assessment was conducted, and the identification of the workplace evaluated (area or location). The hazard assessment assures that potential workplace hazards necessitating PPE use have been identified and the PPE selected is appropriate for those hazards and the affected workers. The required certification of the hazard assessment verifies that the required hazard assessment was conducted. jlentini on DSKJ8SOYB1PROD with NOTICES Training and Verification (§ 1910.132(f)) Section 1910.132(f) requires that employers provide training for each worker who is required to wear PPE. Paragraph (f)(3) requires that employers also provide retraining when there is reason to believe that any previously trained worker does not have the understanding and skill to use PPE properly. Circumstances where such retraining is required include changes in the workplace that render prior training obsolete, changes in the types of PPE used, and inadequacies in the worker’s knowledge or use of PPE that indicate the worker had not retained the requisite understanding and skill. Paragraph (f)(4) requires that employers certify that workers have received and understood the PPE training required in § 1910.132(f). The training certification must include the name of the worker(s) trained, the date(s) of training, and the subject of the certification (i.e., a statement identifying the document as a certification of training in the use of PPE). The training certification verifies that workers have received the necessary training and know how to properly use PPE. OSHA compliance officers may require employers to disclose the certification records during an Agency inspection. The standards on PPE protection for the eyes and face (29 CFR 1910.133), head (29 CFR 1910.135, feet (29 CFR 1910.136)), and hands (29 CFR 1910.138) do not contain any separate information collection requirements. II. Special Issues for Comment OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues: • Whether the proposed information collection requirements are necessary for the proper performance of the Agency’s functions, including whether the information is useful; • The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of the burden (time and costs) of the VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:37 Nov 20, 2009 Jkt 220001 information collection requirements, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; • The quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; and • Ways to minimize the burden on employers who must comply; for example, by using automated or other technological information collection and transmission techniques. III. Proposed Actions OSHA is requesting that OMB extend its approval of the information collection requirements contained in the Personal Protective Equipment Standard for General Industry (29 CFR part 1910, subpart I). OSHA is proposing to decrease the burden hours in the currently approved information collection request from 3,953,759 to 3,552,171 (a total decrease of 401,588 hours). This decrease is due to the reduction in the percentage of establishments with 20 or more workers affected by the Standard. The Agency will summarize the comments submitted in response to this notice and will include this summary in the request to OMB. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Title: Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for General Industry (29 CFR part 1910, subpart I). OMB Number: 1218–0205. Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Federal Government; State, Local, or Tribal Government. Number of Respondents: 3,500,000. Frequency of Response: On occasion.

[[Page 61177]]

SUMMARY: The Copyright Royalty Judges are announcing receipt of a

submitted by AOL LLC concerning the royalty payments made under two 
statutory licenses.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Richard Strasser, Senior Attorney, or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 1995, Congress enacted the Digital 
Performance Right in Sound Recordings Act of 1995 (``DPRA''), 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 
compulsory license for nonexempt noninteractive digital subscription 
transmissions. 17 U.S.C. 114(f).
    Section 114 was later amended with the passage of the Digital 
Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (``DMCA''), Public Law 105-304, to 
cover additional digital audio transmissions, including eligible 
nonsubscription transmissions.\1\ In addition to expanding the section 
114 license, the DMCA also created a statutory license to allow a 
service to make any necessary ephemeral reproductions to facilitate the 
digital transmission of the sound recording. 17 U.S.C. 112(e).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ An ``eligible nonsubscription transmission'' is a 
noninteractive digital audio transmission which, as the name 
implies, does not require a subscription for receiving the 
transmission. The transmission must also be made as a part of a 
service that provides audio programming consisting in whole or in 
part of performances of sound recordings the primary purpose of 
which is to provide audio or entertainment programming, but not to 
sell, advertise, or promote particular goods or services other than 
sound recordings, live concerts, or other music-related events. 17 
U.S.C. 114(j)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Licensees may operate under these licenses provided they pay the 
royalty fees and comply with the terms set by the Copyright Royalty 
Judges (``Judges''). On May 1, 2007, the Judges issued their final 
determination setting rates and terms for the section 112 and 114 
licenses for the period 2006-2010. 72 FR 24084. As part of the terms 
set for these licenses, the Judges designated SoundExchange, Inc. as 
the organization charged with collecting the royalty payments and 
statements of account and distributing the royalties to the copyright 
owners and performers entitled to receive such royalties under the 
section 112 and 114 licenses. 37 CFR 380.4(b)(1). As the designated 
Collective, SoundExchange may conduct a single audit of a licensee for 
any calendar year for the purpose of verifying their royalty payments. 
SoundExchange must first file with the Judges a notice of intent to 
audit a licensee and serve the notice on the licensee to be audited. 37 
CFR 380.6(b), (c).
    On November 5, 2009, pursuant to 37 CFR 380.6(c), SoundExchange 
filed with the Judges a notice of intent to audit AOL LLC for the years 
2006, 2007, and 2008. Section 380.6(c) requires the Judges to publish a 
notice 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 380.6(c), the Copyright Royalty Judges 
are publishing today's notice to fulfill this requirement with respect 
to SoundExchange's notice of intent to audit AOL LLC filed November 5, 
2009.

    Dated: November 17, 2009.
