In the Second Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, the Commission extended by twelve months the existing 2006 deadline in Section 76.1204(a)(1) prohibiting the deployment of integrated navigation devices by multichannel video programming distributors in order to promote the retail sale of non–integrated navigation devices. This extension was intended to afford cable operators additional time to investigate and develop a downloadable security solution that will allow common reliance by cable operators and consumer electronics manufacturers on an identical security function without the additional costs of physical separation inherent in the point–of– deployment module, or CableCARD, solution. The rules adopted in this proceeding added information collection requirements to this collection and also were intended to implement Section 629 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 549.

    General Description of Collection: The FDIC obtained emergency 
approval from OMB for three collections of information related to an 
amendment to the FDIC's assessment regulations that required insured 
depository institutions to prepay, on December 30, 2009, their 
estimated, quarterly, risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 
2009, and for all of 2010, 2011, and 2012. The FDIC will begin to 
offset prepaid assessments on March 30, 2010, representing payment for 
the fourth quarter of 2009. Any prepaid assessment not exhausted by 
December 30, 2014, would be returned to the institution.
    The deadline of 12/31/09 for applications for exemptions, or for 
applications for withdrawal of exemptions has passed, and there are no 
exceptions. Transfers of assessments, however, are still permitted. 
When an insured depository institution enters into an agreement to 
transfer any portion of its prepaid assessment to another insured 
depository institution, it is required to notify the FDIC's Division of 
Finance of that transaction by submitting a written agreement signed by 
the legal representatives of both institutions, including documentation 
that each representative has the legal authority to bind the 
institution.

Request for Comment

    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether these collections of 
information are necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's 
functions, including whether the information has practical utility; (b) 
the accuracy of the estimate of the burdens of the information 
collections, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions 
used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the 
information collections on respondents, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology. All comments will become a matter of public record.

    Dated at Washington, DC, this 11th day of March, 2010.
