[Docket No. 15-0008-CRB-SATR (2015-19)]


Determination of Royalty Rates for Secondary Transmissions of 
Broadcasts by Satellite Carriers and Distributors: Withdrawal

AGENCY: Copyright Royalty Board, Library of Congress.

ACTION: Notice of commencement of proceeding and solicitation of 
petitions to participate; withdrawal.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The announcement of the commencement of a proceeding published 
on March 30, 2015, 80 FR 16702 is withdrawn.

DATES: Effective Date: The commencement announcement published on March 
30, 2015, is withdrawn April 22, 2015.

ADDRESSES: This notice is also posted on the agency's Web site 
(www.loc.gov/crb).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Kimberly Whittle, Attorney Advisor, by 
telephone at (202) 707-7658 or email at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Copyright Royalty Judges have decided to 
withdraw the commencement of a proceeding based on a reconsideration of 
the congressional intent behind the enactment of the STELA 
Reauthorization Act of 2014 Public Law

[[Page 22564]]

113-200. The provisions of the reauthorization act extend the satellite 
carrier statutory license under section 119 of the Copyright Act (Act) 
to December 31, 2019. See 17 U.S.C. 119(h). Despite some conflicting 
statutory language in the new law, the Judges conclude that the rates 
in effect on December 31, 2014, which were established by a voluntary 
agreement among certain satellite carriers and copyright owners and 
which are codified at 37 CFR 386.2(b), continue in effect, subject only 
to the annual royalty fee adjustment provision found at 17 U.S.C. 
119(c)(2). See section 119 (c)(1)(E) of the Copyright Act. 17 U.S.C. 
119(c)(1)(e) (2014).\1\ A proceeding to determine rates for the 
statutory license is not necessary.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ In a subsequent notice, the Judges will announce the 
adjusted satellite rate for 2015.

    Dated: April 16, 2015.
