CWA (40 CFR 130.7). The regulations

priority rankings, identify the pollutants
causing the impairment, and identify

Consistent with EPA’s regulations,

In this document, the Media
Bureau seeks comment on a petition for
waiver and clarification of the
Commission’s rules filed by TiVo Inc.
These comments are necessary to help
the Media Bureau decide whether to

Submit comments on or before

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
additional information on this
proceeding, contact Brendan Murray,
Brendan.Murray@fcc.gov, of the Media
Bureau, Policy Division, (202) 418–
2120.
DATES:
TiVo Inc.
(‘‘TiVo’’) has filed a request pursuant to
Sections 1.3, 76.7, and 76.1207 of the
Commission’s rules for waiver of part of
Section 76.640(b)(4)(iii) of the
Commission’s rules. Section
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
PO 00000
Frm 00037
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
76.640(b)(4)(iii) requires cable operators
to ‘‘ensure that the cable-operatorprovided high definition set-top boxes,
except unidirectional set-top boxes
without recording functionality, shall
comply with an open industry standard
that provides for audiovisual
communications including service
discovery, video transport, and remote
control command pass-through
standards for home networking’’ by
December 1, 2012. This rule is designed
to ensure that consumers will be able to
connect consumer electronics devices
that they own to set-top boxes that they
lease from their cable operators for
whole-home viewing and recording.
TiVo also asks the Commission to
clarify the meaning of the phrase ‘‘open
industry standard’’ in the rule. TiVo
seeks a waiver of 76.640(b)(4)(iii) for
TiVo boxes that cable operators lease to
subscribers. TiVo requests that this
waiver last until 12 months after cable
operators have deployed at least 100,000
Cisco set-top boxes and 100,000
Motorola set-top boxes that include an
output that complies with Section
76.640(b)(4)(iii). TiVo maintains that
waiver of ‘‘an open standard’’
implementation for cable operators with
respect to TiVo boxes that cable
operators lease to subscribers would
cause no harm to interested parties and
will benefit consumers. We seek
comment on TiVo’s request. Authority
for this action is contained in 47 U.S.C.
154(i), 549, and 47 CFR 0.283, 1.3, and
76.7(b)(1).
This proceeding will be treated as
‘‘permit but disclose’’ for purposes of
the Commission’s ex parte rules. As a
result of the permit-but-disclose status
of this proceeding, ex parte
presentations will be governed by the
procedures set forth in Section 1.1206 of
the Commission’s rules applicable to
non-restricted proceedings.
Comments and oppositions are due
September 21, 2012. Petitioner’s reply is
due October 1, 2012. All filings must be
submitted in MB Docket No. 12–230.
Pleadings sent via email to the
Commission will be considered
informal and will not be part of the
official record. Interested parties will
have access to comments online through
the Commission’s Electronic Comment
Filing System (ECFS), and therefore we
waive the requirements of Sections
76.7(b)(1) and 76.7(c)(1) that comments
and oppositions be served on interested
parties.
Comments may be filed using: (1)
(ECFS), (2) the Federal Government’s
eRulemaking Portal, or (3) by filing
paper copies.
Electronic Filers: Comments may be
filed electronically using the Internet by
