requires cable television systems to
carry signals of all qualified local
Noncommercial Educational (NCE) sting
carriage. As a result of this requirement,
the following information collection
requirements are needed for this
collection:
47 CFR 76.1708 requires that the
operator of every cable television system
shall maintain for public inspection the
designation and location of its principal
headend. If an operator changes the
designation of its principal headend,
that new designation must be included
in its public file.
47 CFR 76.1709(a) states effective
June 17, 1993, the operator of every
cable television system shall maintain
for public inspection a file containing a
list of all broadcast television stations
carried by its system in fulfillment of
the must-carry requirements pursuant to
47 CFR 76.56. Such list shall include
the call sign; community of license,
broadcast channel number, cable
channel number, and in the case of a
noncommercial educational broadcast
station, whether that station was carried
by the cable system on March 29, 1990.
47 CFR 76.1614 and 1709(c) states
that a cable operator shall respond in
writing within 30 days to any written
request by any person for the
identification of the signals carried on
its system in fulfillment of the
requirements of 47 CFR 76.56.
Additionally, 47 CFR 76.1620 states
that if a cable operator authorizes
subscribers to install additional receiver
connections, but does not provide the
subscriber with such connections, or
with the equipment and materials for
such connections, the operator shall
notify such subscribers of all broadcast
stations carried on the cable system
which cannot be viewed via cable
without a converter box and shall offer
to sell or lease such a converter box to
such subscribers. Such notification must
be provided by June 2, 1993, and
annually thereafter and to each new
subscriber upon initial installation. The
notice, which may be included in
routine billing statements, shall identify
the signals that are unavailable without
an additional connection, the manner
for obtaining such additional
connection and instructions for
installation.

information shall have practical utility;

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that
does not display a valid OMB control
number.
Written Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before June 9, 2011. If
you anticipate that you will be
submitting PRA comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, you should
advise the FCC contact listed below as
soon as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to
Nicholas A. Fraser, Office of
Management and Budget, via fax at 202–
395–5167 or the Internet at
Nicholas_A._Fraser@omb.eop.gov; and

Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting, quarterly, annual, and once
every 5 years reporting requirements,
recordkeeping requirement and third
party disclosure requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. sections 151–
154, 201–205, 218–220, 214, 254, 303(r),
403 and 410.
Total Annual Burden: 1,152,255
hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality.
However, respondents may request
materials or information submitted to
the Commission be withheld from
public inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of
the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this expiring information
collection to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) during this comment
period in order to obtain the full three
year clearance from them. The
Commission is requesting OMB
approval for a revision.
The Commission conducted an
extensive clean-up of this information
collection. There were mathematical
corrections necessary, rule part
consolidations, and one item was
eliminated to avoid duplicity
(information is being reported on the
same rule part under a different OMB
control number in a different
information collection). Redundant or
unnecessary information was removed.
Therefore, the Commission is reporting
a 127.200 hour burden reduction
adjustment for which we seek OMB
approval.
In the Telecommunications Act of
1996 (1996 Act), Congress directed the
Commission to implement a new set of
universal service support mechanisms
that are explicit and sufficient to
advance the universal service principles
enumerated in 47 U.S.C. section 254
and other such principles as the
Commission believes are necessary and
appropriate for the protection of the
public interest, convenience and
necessity, and are consistent with the
1996 Act. Parts 36 and 54 promulgate
the rules and requirements to preserve
and advance universal service.
