Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; not-for-profit institutions. Number of Respondents/Responses: 1,000 respondents; 120,000 responses. Estimated Hours per Response: 0.01– 0.33 hours. Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement; third party disclosure requirement; on occasion reporting requirement. Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.

Confidentiality: No need for confidentiality required. Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No impact(s). Needs and Uses: Congress has mandated that after February 17, 2009, full-power television broadcast stations must transmit only in digital signals, and may no longer transmit analog signals. On December 22, 2007, the Commission adopted a Report and Order, In the Matter of the Third Periodic Review of the Commission’s Rules and Policies Affecting the Conversion to Digital Television, MB Docket No. 07–91, FCC 07–228 (‘‘Third DTV Periodic Report and Order’’) to establish the rules, policies and procedures necessary to complete the nation’s transition to DTV. In the Report PO 00000 Frm 00019 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 33819 and Order, the Commission adopted rules to ensure that, by the February 17, 2009 transition date, all full-power television broadcast stations (1) cease analog broadcasting and (2) complete construction of, and begin operations on, their final, full-authorized posttransition (DTV) facility. The Commission recognized that broadcasters may need regulatory flexibility in order to achieve these goals. Accordingly, the Commission affords broadcasters the opportunity for regulatory flexibility, if necessary, to meet their DTV construction deadlines. The Commission, however, must also ensure that no consumers are left behind in the DTV transition. Therefore, the Commission requires broadcasters that choose to reduce or terminate TV service to comply with viewer notification requirements. Specifically, as a result of the Third DTV Periodic Report and Order, stations must comply with a viewer notification requirement (i.e., stations must notify viewers about their planned service reduction or termination) if: (1) The station will permanently reduce or terminate analog or pretransition digital service before the transition date; or (2) The station will not serve at least the same population that receives their current analog TV and DTV service after the transition date. Viewer notifications must occur every day on-air at least four times a day including at least once in primetime for the 30 days prior to the station’s termination of full, authorized analog service. These notifications must include: (1) The station’s call sign and community of license; (2) the fact that the station must delay the construction and operation of its post-transition (DTV) service or the fact that the station is planning to or has reduced or terminated its analog or digital operations before the transition date; (3) information about the nature, scope, and anticipated duration of the station’s post-transition service limitations; (4) what viewers can do to continue to receive the station, i.e., how and when the station’s digital signal can be received; (5) information about the availability of digital-to-analog converter boxes in their service area; and (6) the street address, e-mail address (if available), and phone number of the station where viewers may register comments or request information.
