The Second Order addressed several matters relating to the obligation of television licensees to provide educational programming for children and the obligation of television licensees and cable operators to protect children from excessive and inappropriate commercial messages. Among other things, the Second Order adopts a children’s programming preemption policy. This policy requires all networks requesting preemption flexibility to file a request with the Media Bureau by August 1 of each year. The request identifies the number of preemptions the network expects, when the program will be rescheduled, whether the rescheduled time is the program’s second home, and the network’s plan to notify viewers of the schedule change. Preemption flexibility requests are not mandatory filings. They are requests that may be filed by networks seeking preemption flexibility. OMB Control Number: 3060–0837.

In addition, a copy of this notice must be placed in the station’s public inspection file along with the application, pursuant to Section 73.3527. This recordkeeping information collection requirement is contained in OMB Control No. 3060– 0214, which covers Section 73.3527. Federal Communications Commission. Marlene H.

Needs and Uses

    The Commission will submit this expiring information collection to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval of an extension 
request (no change in the public reporting and/or recordkeeping 
requirement). There is no change in the Commission's previous burden 
estimates.
    Under 47 CFR 1.929(c)(1) of the Commission's rules, any increase in 
the composite interference contour (CIC) of a site-based licensee in 
the Paging and Radiotelephone Service, Rural Radiotelephone Service, or 
800 MHz Specialized Mobile Radio Service is a major modification of a 
license that requires prior Commission approval.
    However, in February 2005, the Commission adopted and released 
final rules which amended section 1.929(c)(1) to specify that expansion 
of a composite interference contour (CIC) of a site-based licensee in 
the Paging and Radiotelephone Service--as well as the Rural 
Radiotelephone Service and 800 MHz Specialized Mobile Radio Service--
over water on a secondary, non-interference basis should be classified 
as a minor (rather than major) modification of a license. Such 
reclassification has eliminated the filing requirements associated with 
these license modifications, but requires site-based licensees to 
provide the geographic area licensee (on the same frequency) with the 
technical and engineering information necessary to evaluate the site-
based licensee's operations over water.
