Arts Advisory Panel Meetings, 66313-66314 [2018-27782]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 246 / Wednesday, December 26, 2018 / Notices amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES1 Subfund (60%) and the Featured Recording Artists Subfund (40%), after small portions are distributed to nonfeatured musicians and nonfeatured vocalists. 17 U.S.C. 1006(b)(1). Distribution of the fees in the two subfunds may occur in one of two ways. The interested copyright parties within each subfund may negotiate the terms of a settlement as to the division of royalty funds. If, after any such agreements, funds remain in dispute, the Copyright Royalty Judges may conduct a proceeding to determine the distribution of the royalties that remain in controversy in each subfund. 17 U.S.C. 1006(c) & 1007(c). The Judges have distributed 100% of the royalties for the Featured Recording Artists Subfund of the 2008 Sound Recordings Fund. Distribution Order, Docket No. 2009–3 CRB DD 2008 (June 24, 2009). However, the Judges have ordered only partial distributions of the 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, and 2011 (from both the Copyright Owners Subfund and the Featured Recording Artists Subfund) because the interested copyright parties have not settled their disputes over remaining amounts. See, e.g., Order Granting AARC’s Request for Partial Distribution of 2011 DART Sound Recordings Funds; Docket No. 2012–3 CRB DD 2011 (Sept. 20, 2012); Order Granting in Part AARC’s Supplemental Request for Partial Distribution of 2007, 2008 and 2009 DART Sound Recordings Fund Royalties, Docket Nos. 2008–3 CRB DD 2007, 2009–3 CRB DD 2008; and 2010–5 CRB DD 2009 (March 8, 2012); Order Granting AARC’s Request for Partial Distribution of 2010 DART Sound Recordings Funds, Docket No. 2011–6 CRB DD 2010 (Nov. 17, 2011); Order Granting AARC’s Request for Partial Distribution of 2008 DART Sound Recordings Fund/Copyright Owners Subfund Royalties; Docket No. 2009–3 CRB DD 2008 (Aug. 19, 2009); Distribution Order, Docket No. 2008–3 CRB DD 2007 (Oct. 14, 2008). Consistent with 17 U.S.C. 804(b)(8), the Judges determine that, for the reasons stated above, a controversy exists with respect to the distribution of the 2007, 2009, 2010, and 2011 DART Sound Recordings Fund royalties from the Copyright Owners Subfund and the Featured Recording Artists Subfund and, with respect to 2008, from the Copyright Owners Subfund. Commencement of Proceeding By this notice, the Judges announce the commencement of a proceeding to determine the final distribution of DART Sound Recordings Funds (from both the Copyright Owners Subfund and the Featured Recording Artists Subfund) VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:07 Dec 21, 2018 Jkt 247001 for royalty years 2007, 2009, 2010, and 2011, and from the Copyright Owners Subfund for 2008. Petitions To Participate Petitions to Participate must provide all of the information required by 37 CFR 351.1(b)(2). Participants also must identify by year each subfund in the Sound Recordings Fund to which they are asserting a claim (i.e., Copyright Owners, Featured Recording Artists, or both). Petitions to Participate submitted by interested parties whose claims do not exceed $1,000 must contain a statement that the party will not seek a distribution of more than $1,000. 37 CFR 351.1(b)(4). No filing fee is required for such parties. Interested parties with claims exceeding $1,000, however, must submit a filing fee of $150 with their respective Petitions to Participate, or the petition will be rejected. CASH WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Parties filing online through eCRB must pay by credit card. Any party without access to the internet must pay the filing fee with a check or money order made payable to the ‘‘Copyright Royalty Board’’ and mailed or delivered with a paper claim form, as described in the ‘‘Addresses’’ section above. If a check is returned for lack of sufficient funds, the corresponding Petition to Participate will be dismissed. Any participant that is an individual may represent herself or himself. All other participants must be represented by counsel. In accordance with 37 CFR 350.2 (Representation), only attorneys who are members of the bar in one or more states or the District of Columbia and in good standing will be allowed to represent parties before the Copyright Royalty Judges. The Judges will address further procedural matters, including scheduling, after Petitions to Participate have been filed. Intention To Conduct a Paper Proceeding In accordance with Section 803(b)(5)(B) of the Copyright Act, the Judges find it appropriate to conduct a paper proceeding in this matter in light of the relatively modest amount of royalties in dispute after previously approved partial distributions and the anticipated small number of nonsettling claimants. In paper proceedings, the Judges enter an order scheduling the filing of a written direct statement by each participant, a response of an opposing participant, and one additional response from the participant. 17 U.S.C. 803(b)(5). The Judges make their determination on the basis of these filings. Any party wishing PO 00000 Frm 00077 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 66313 to comment on the Judges’ intention to conduct a paper proceeding should include such comments in its Petition to Participate. Suzanne M. Barnett, Chief U.S. Copyright Royalty Judge.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Introduction The NRC has received, by letter dated July 10, 2018, an application from PG&E for renewal of SNM License No. SNM– 2514 for the Humboldt Bay ISFSI for an additional 40 years (ADAMS Accession No. ML18215A202). The license currently authorizes PG&E to receive, possess, transfer, and store spent fuel and Greater Than Class C Waste (GTCC) from HBNPP in the Humboldt Bay ISFSI, located at the HBNPP site in Humboldt County, California until the license term expires on November 17, 2025. This license renewal, if approved, would authorize PG&E to continue to store spent fuel and GTCC Waste at the Humboldt Bay ISFSI for an additional 40 years beyond its initial expiration, under the provisions of part 72 of title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR), ‘‘Licensing Requirements for the Independent Storage of Spent Nuclear Fuel, High-Level Radioactive Waste, and Reactor-Related Greater Than Class C Waste.’’ Following an NRC administrative completeness review, documented in a letter to PG&E dated November 14, 2018 (ADAMS Accession No. ML18319A147), the NRC staff has determined that the renewal application contains sufficient information for the NRC staff to begin its technical review and is acceptable for docketing. The application has been docketed in Docket No. 72–27, the existing docket for SNM License No. SNM–2514. If the NRC approves the renewal application, the approval will be documented in the renewal of SNM License No. SNM–2514. The NRC will approve the license renewal application PO 00000 Frm 00078 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 if it determines that the application meets the standards and requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended (the Act), and the NRC’s regulations. These findings will be documented in a safety evaluation report. The NRC will complete an environmental evaluation, in accordance with 10 CFR part 51, to determine if the preparation of an environmental impact statement is warranted or if an environmental assessment and finding of no significant impact are appropriate. This action will be the subject of a subsequent notice in the Federal Register. II. Opportunity To Request a Hearing and Petition for Leave To Intervene Within 60 days after the date of publication of this notice, any persons (petitioner) whose interest may be affected by this action may file a request for a hearing and petition for leave to intervene (petition) with respect to the action. Petitions shall be filed in accordance with the Commission’s ‘‘Agency Rules of Practice and Procedure’’ in 10 CFR part 2. Interested persons should consult a current copy of 10 CFR part 2. The NRC’s regulations are accessible electronically from the NRC Library on the NRC’s website at https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doccollections/cfr/. A copy of the regulations is available at the NRC’s Public Document Room, located at One White Flint North, Room O1–F21, 11555 Rockville Pike (first floor), Rockville, Maryland 20852. If a petition is filed, the Commission or a presiding officer will rule on the petition and, if appropriate, a notice of a hearing will be issued. As required by 10 CFR 2.309(d), the petition should specifically explain the reasons why intervention should be permitted with particular reference to the following general requirements for standing: (1) The name, address, and telephone number of the petitioner; (2) the nature of the petitioner’s right under the Act to be made a party to the proceeding; (3) the nature and extent of the petitioner’s property, financial, or other interest in the proceeding; and (4) the possible effect of any decision or order that may be entered in the proceeding on the petitioner’s interest. In accordance with 10 CFR 2.309(f), the petition must also set forth the specific contentions which the petitioner seeks to have litigated in the proceeding.
