The U.S. Copyright Office has introduced a new group registration option called "Group Registration of Works on an Album of Music" (GRAM) that allows for the registration of musical works, sound recordings, and certain associated works distributed together on an album. This rule adopts, with some updates, previous proposals from a 2019 notice and will be effective starting March 26, 2021. Applicants can register up to twenty musical works and sound recordings from the same album using this option, which includes the implementation of specific online applications and a fee of $65. The rule aims to streamline the registration process and includes details on eligibility requirements, application procedures, and deposit requirements.

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) is proposing a new rule to require that all applications and renewals for DEA registration be submitted online. This change will eliminate the current option to submit paper forms, making the process more efficient and cost-effective. The proposal is expected to save money for both the DEA and applicants by reducing errors and the need for corrections, while nearly all current applicants already use the internet for submissions. The rule change also aligns with federal efforts to streamline and modernize regulatory processes.
