			  It has been the Copyright Office’s longstanding practice  that interest on untimely or underpaid cable system statutory payments is not  due when the amount has been less than, or equal, to five dollars. This rule  was inadvertently removed when the Office updated its electronic funds transfer  requirements four years ago. To correct this error the Office is amending  Section 201.17(i)(4) to restore this language on the five dollar threshold.  This correction is effective April 20, 2010.
