Download as PDF 45716 Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 157 / Wednesday, August 15, 2007 / Proposed Rules ebenthall on PRODPC61 with PROPOSALS possible compliance burdens on small entities might be appropriate. 19. Steps Taken To Minimize Significant Impact on Small Entities, and Significant Alternatives Considered. The RFA requires an agency to describe any significant alternatives that it has considered in reaching its proposed approach, which may include the following four alternatives (among others): (1) The establishment of differing compliance or reporting requirements or timetables that take into account the resources available to small entities; (2) the clarification, consolidation, or simplification of compliance or reporting requirements under the rule for small entities; (3) the use of performance, rather than design, standards; and (4) an exemption from coverage of the rule, or any part thereof, for small entities. 20. In the Second Report and Order, the Commission permits radio stations to offer high quality digital radio signals, multicast digital audio programming streams, and datacasting. In the Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, the Commission seeks comment on what limitations on ancillary subscription services are necessary and appropriate to ensure the viability of free over-the-air radio broadcasting. This is an issue of first impression for the Commission; there is no history that indicates whether limits on ancillary subscription services will be adverse or beneficial to small businesses. Therefore, we make no judgment on whether limits on ancillary subscription services will adversely affect small business. We welcome commenters to address whether limits on ancillary subscription services will have any adverse effects on small businesses. 21. Federal Rules Which Duplicate, Overlap, or Conflict With, the Commission’s Proposals. None. 22. The Commission will send a copy of the Second Report and Order, First Order on Reconsideration, and Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, including this FRFA, to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy of the SBA. A copy of the Second Report and Order, First Order on Reconsideration, and Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking and FRFA (or summaries thereof) will also be published in the Federal Register.
