The great majority of these will have no stereotypical kidnapping cases during the 1-year timeframe of the survey and OJJDP estimates the average time to complete the mail screener to be 15 minutes (2,836 × 15 minutes = 709.05 hours), 1,891 will not respond by mail (1,891 × 3 minutes = 94.54 hours). OJJDP estimates that 1,229 (26 percent) of the law enforcement agencies will complete the mail screener by telephone, based on the percentage of mail screeners completed by telephone in NIMSART–3. OJJDP estimates that the time to complete the screener by telephone will be 4 minutes (1,229 × 4 minutes =81.9 hours), and 662 will not respond (662 × 3 minutes = 33.1 hours). OJJDP estimates that 204 cases will be identified that appear to meet the definition of a qualifying stereotypical kidnapping case. The estimate is based on the number of cases identified in NISMART–3 for telephone followup from the mail screener and searches of other databases. Investigators of these cases will be asked to complete the online survey about case details. OJJDP estimates that 161 (79 percent) of the law enforcement officers will complete the case detail online instrument (estimate again based on the percentage of investigators who completed this component for NISMART–3) with 145 (90 percent) completing online. OJJDP estimates that the instrument will take an average of 40 minutes to complete (145 × 40 minutes = 96.6 hours), 59 will not respond online (59 × 3 minutes = 2.95 hours). OJJDP estimates that 16 (10 percent) of the 161 law enforcement officers who complete the detailed case survey will do it via telephone interview and that the interview will take 60 minutes (16 × 60 minutes = 16 hours), and that 43 will not respond (43 × 3 minutes = 2.15 hours). OJJDP estimates the time for NCMEC and state MCCs database administrators to conduct a database search of any stereotypical kidnapping cases in their states to be 4 hours and expect that all NCMEC and the state MCCs in the 49 states where the sampled PSUs are located will participate (50 × 4 hour = 200 hours). The total amount of time for the National LES–SK study is 1,236.5 hours. (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection: There are an estimated 1,712 total burden hours (1,259 hours for law enforcement investigators and 453 hours for NCMEC and MCC database administrators) associated with the three pilot studies and the national LES–SK study.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: I. Background The Uruguay Round Agreements Act (‘‘URAA’’) 1 provides for the restoration 1 Public Law 103–465, 108 Stat. 4809 (1994). VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:21 Feb 01, 2019 Jkt 247001 of copyright in certain works of foreign origin that previously were in the public domain in the United States. Enacted in 1994 to implement U.S. obligations under the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (‘‘TRIPS’’) of the World Trade Organization (‘‘WTO’’), the URAA extends copyright to works that are protected in nations adhering to certain international copyright agreements to which the United States is a party, but that were unprotected in the United States for any of three reasons: (1) Noncompliance with formalities imposed at any time by United States copyright law, including failure of renewal, publishing the work without a proper notice, or failure to comply with any manufacturing requirements; (2) lack of subject matter protection in the case of sound recordings fixed before February 15, 1972; or (3) lack of national eligibility (i.e., the work is from a country with which the United States did not have copyright relations at the time of the work’s publication).2 A work meeting these criteria is protected ‘‘for the remainder of the term of copyright that the work would have otherwise been granted in the United States if the work never entered the public domain in the United States.’’ 3 Under the URAA, copyright in restored works vests automatically on the date of restoration.4 That date was January 1, 1996, if the work’s source country was already a member of the WTO or the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works (‘‘Berne Convention’’) as of that date. Otherwise, the date of restoration is the earliest of (1) the date the source country becomes a WTO member, (2) the date of the country’s adherence to the Berne Convention, the WIPO Copyright Treaty, or the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty, or (3) the date when the President issues a proclamation extending copyright restoration to that country.5 For a published work, the ‘‘source country’’ is the eligible country in which the work is first published or, in the case of a work published on the same day in multiple countries, the eligible country with the most significant contacts with the work.6 For an unpublished work, the source country is (1) the eligible country in which the author or rightholder is a national or domiciliary, (2) if the work has multiple authors or rightholders, the country in which the 2 17 U.S.C. 104A(h)(6). 104A(a)(1)(B). 4 Id. 104A(a)(1)(A). 5 Id. 104A(h)(1)–(2). 6 Id. 104(h)(8)(C). 3 Id.

Nor does the Office adjudicate between competing parties who have filed NIEs for the same 7 Id. 104A(h)(8)(B). 104A(h)(4). 9 Id. 104A(d)(2). 10 Id. 104A(d)(2)(A)(ii), (B)(ii). 11 Id. 104A(d)(2)(A)(i). 12 Id. 104A(c). 13 Id. 104A(e)(2)(A). 14 Id. 104A(c). 15 Id. 104A(e)(1)(B)(i). 8 Id.
