ACTION: Final rule. AGENCY: The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) issues this final rule to remove its regulations to implement and administer the Digitalto-Analog Converter Box Program (Coupon Program). The regulations implemented provisions of section 3005 of the Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005, as subsequently amended. The final coupons were issued on August 12, 2009, and expired on November 9, 2009. NTIA is removing its regulations because the Coupon Program is closed and the regulations are now obsolete.

I. Background Information The Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Act of 2005 (the Act), Public Law 109–171, as amended by the DTV Delay Act, Public Law 111–4, directed the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to require full-power television stations to cease analog broadcasting and to broadcast solely digital transmissions after June 12, 2009.1 The returned analog television spectrum was auctioned and proceeds were deposited into the Digital Television Transition and Public Safety Fund (the Fund).2 Section 3005 of the Act authorized NTIA to establish and implement the Coupon Program and provided that eligible U.S. households could obtain a maximum of two coupons of $40 each to apply toward the purchase of Coupon-Eligible Converter Boxes (CECB).3 Accordingly, on March 15, 2007, NTIA issued a final rule entitled, ‘‘Rules to Implement and Administer a Coupon Program for Digital-to-Analog Converter Boxes.’’ 4 The purpose of the program was to provide consumers who wished to continue receiving over-theair broadcast programming on their analog-only televisions $40 coupons to offset the cost of digital-to-analog converter boxes. Consumers had the option to apply by mail, over the phone, via fax, or online. Consumers had 90 days to redeem their $40 coupon(s) at participating retailers.5 The converter boxes were manufactured according to NTIA minimum technical specifications based on ATSC Guidelines A/74 and 47 CFR part 73.6 Retailers were required to provide NTIA with redemption information and payment receipts related to coupons used in the purchase of CECBs, specifically tracking each serialized coupon by number with a corresponding CECB purchase. Participating retailers also were required to accept coupons for, and receive 1 See Title III of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, Public Law 109–171, 120 Stat. 4, 21 (Feb. 8, 2006), amended by the DTV Delay Act, Public Law 111– 4, 123 Stat. 112 (Feb. 11, 2009). 2 Act at § 3004, 120 Stat. at 22. 3 Act at § 3005, 120 Stat. at 23. 4 72 FR 12,097 (Mar. 15, 2007).

Removal of the Regulations To Implement and Administer a Coupon Program for Digital-to-Analog Converter Boxes Section 3005 of the Act required NTIA to issue coupons through July 31, 2009, and administer the program until the last coupon expired 90 days from issuance. The final coupons were issued on August 12, 2009, and expired on November 9, 2009. Retailers are required to maintain sales records for one year following the sales transaction date, which would be November 8, 2010. NTIA is removing its regulations because the statute no longer obligates NTIA to implement and administer the program, and after November 8, 2010, the regulations are obsolete. Administrative Procedure Act The Assistant Secretary for Communications and Information Administration for NTIA finds good cause under the Administrative Procedure Act, 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B) to waive prior notice and opportunity for public comment because it is unnecessary and contrary to the public interest. This rulemaking would remove from the Code of Federal Regulations those regulations that implement provisions of section 3005 of the Act, which authorized NTIA to establish and implement a coupon program in which 7 47 CFR 301.6(b)(2)(E)–(F).
