The U.S. Copyright Office is proposing to amend its regulations to address the effect of a disruption or suspension of any Office electronic system on the Office’s receipt of applications, fees, deposits, or other materials. The amended regulations specify how the Office will assign effective dates of receipt to materials attempted to be submitted during a disruption or suspension of an Office electronic system. In addition, the proposed rule specifies how the Office will assign effective dates of receipt when a specific submission is lost in the absence of a declaration of disruption, as might occur during the security screening procedures used for mail that is delivered to the Office.
The Office seeks public comments on the proposed regulations that will be considered in promulgating a final rule.
The proposed regulations and instructions on how to submit a comment are available on the Regulations to Address the Disruption of Copyright Office Electronic Systems webpage. Written comments must be received no later than April 3, 2017, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern time.
