River Datum 0.0 while in the closed-tonavigation position, and provides 125
feet of horizontal clearance with half the
span open. This bridge operates in
accordance with 33 CFR 117.897. This
deviation allows the double bascule
span of the Broadway Bridge across the
Willamette River, mile 11.7, to operate
the bridge in single leaf mode to marine
traffic. The deviation period will be
from 1 a.m. on January 27, 2018 to 11:59
p.m. on February 23, 2018. The bridge
shall operate in accordance to 33 CFR
117.897 at all other times.
Waterway usage on this part of the
Willamette River includes vessels
ranging from commercial tug and barge
to small pleasure craft. One particular
shipping company regularly requests a
full bridge span opening in order to
transit the river. In anticipation of this
deviation, the shipping company has
agreed to give a 7 day notice and a 24
hour notice to the bridge owner for a
request of a full bridge span opening. If
this procedure is followed, the bridge
owner has agreed to comply with these
requests.
Vessels able to pass through the
bridge in the closed-to-navigation
position may do so at anytime. The
bridge will be able to open for
emergencies, and there is no immediate
alternate route for vessels to pass. The
Coast Guard will also inform the users
of the waterways through our Local and
Broadcast Notices to Mariners of the
change in operating schedule for the
bridge so that vessels can arrange their
transits to minimize any impact caused
by the temporary deviation.
In accordance with 33 CFR 117.35(e),
the drawbridge must return to its regular
operating schedule immediately at the
end of the effective period of this
temporary deviation. This deviation
from the operating regulations is
authorized under 33 CFR 117.35.
Dated: January 16, 2018.
Steven M. Fischer,
Bridge Administrator, Thirteenth Coast Guard
District.

LIBRARY OF CONGRESS

37 CFR Parts 201 and 202
[Docket No. 2017–16]
Group Registration of Newspapers
U.S. Copyright Office, Library
of Congress.
ACTION: Final rule.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Copyright Office is
amending its regulation governing the
group registration option for
newspapers. The final rule will make a
number of changes to reflect current
Office practices, improve the efficiency
of the registration process, and
encourage broader participation in the
registration system by reducing the
burden on applicants. Specifically, the
final rule revises the definition of
‘‘newspaper issues’’ and clarifies that
the group registration option may be
used to register any qualifying
‘‘newspaper issue.’’ The final rule will
also require applicants to file an online
application rather than a paper
application, and upload a complete
digital copy of each issue through the
Office’s electronic registration system
instead of submitting them in physical
form. Digital copies of newspapers
received by the Office under this group
registration option will be offered to the
Library of Congress for use in its
collections, and the Library intends to
provide public access to these digital
files, subject to the restrictions set forth
in the final rule. Applicants may
continue to submit their issues on

microfilm on a voluntary basis (in
addition to and at the same time as
submitting digital files) if the microfilm
is received by December 31, 2019. After
that date, the microfilm option will be
eliminated. The final rule clarifies that
each issue in the group must be a new
collective work and a work made for
hire, that the author and copyright
claimant for each issue must be the
same person or organization, and that
the claim must be received within three
months after the publication of the
earliest issue in the group. Finally, the
rule confirms that a group registration
covers each issue in the group, as well
as any contributions appearing within
each issue if they are fully owned by the
copyright claimant and if they were first
published in those issues.
DATES: Effective March 1, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When
Congress enacted the Copyright Act of
1976 (the ‘‘Act’’), it authorized the
Register of Copyrights (the ‘‘Register’’)
to specify by regulation the
administrative classes of works for the
purpose of seeking a registration, and
the nature of the deposits required for
each such class. In addition, Congress
granted the Register the discretion to
allow groups of related works to be
registered with one application and one
filing fee. See 17 U.S.C. 408(c)(1).
Congress cited ‘‘the various editions or
issues of a daily newspaper’’ as a
specific example of a ‘‘group of related
works’’ that would be suitable for a
group registration. H.R. Rep. No. 94–
1476, at 154 (1976), reprinted in 1976
U.S.C.C.A.N. 5659, 5770; S. Rep. No.
94–473, at 136 (1975).
On November 6, 2017, the Copyright
Office (the ‘‘Office’’) published a notice
of proposed rulemaking (‘‘NPRM’’)
setting forth proposed amendments to
the current regulation governing the
group registration option for
newspapers. 82 FR 51369 (Nov. 6,
2017). The NPRM proposed modifying
the requirements for this group
registration option in several respects.
First, the proposed rule would make any
newspaper, as defined in the regulation,
eligible for a group registration,
regardless of whether the Library of
Congress (the ‘‘Library’’) has selected
