Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 237 / Monday, December 10, 2012 / Notices
collection and assessment of these data
are ongoing, the recently released
Ownership Report signifies a substantial
improvement in minority and female
ownership data. We anticipate going
forward that these and additional
ownership reports will provide useful
periodic ‘‘snapshots’’ of minority and
female ownership in the broadcast
industry. We expect that our continuing
efforts to reform and refine our
ownership data collection will yield
more and better data to support trend
analyses in the future.
4. The Ownership Report was
released to the public on November 14,
2012 and parties have submitted
material in the record concerning the
data. Several parties have requested an
additional, formal opportunity to
comment on the Ownership Report.
Thus, while this proceeding has
provided numerous opportunities for
public input and participation, we will
establish a further comment cycle for
this limited purpose. Comments are due
December 26, 2012; reply comments are
due January 4, 2013.
Procedural Matters
5. Ex Parte Rules. This proceeding
will be treated as ‘‘permit but disclose’’
for purposes of the Commission’s ex
parte rules.1 As a result of the permitbut-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.2 Persons making ex parte
presentations must file a copy of any
written presentation or a memorandum
summarizing any oral presentation
within two business days after the
presentation (unless a different deadline
applicable to the Sunshine period
applies).
6. Persons making oral ex parte
presentations are reminded that
memoranda summarizing the
presentation must (1) list all persons
attending or otherwise participating in
the meeting at which the ex parte
presentation was made, and (2)
summarize all data presented and
arguments made during the
presentation. If the presentation
consisted in whole or in part of the
presentation of data or arguments
already reflected in the presenter’s
written comments, memoranda or other
filings in the proceeding, the presenter
may provide citations to such data or
arguments in his or her prior comments,
memoranda, or other filings (specifying
the relevant page and/or paragraph
numbers where such data or arguments
can be found) in lieu of summarizing
them in the memorandum. Documents
shown or given to Commission staff
during ex parte meetings are deemed to
be written ex parte presentations and
must be filed consistent with rule
1.1206(b). Written ex parte
presentations and memoranda
summarizing oral ex parte
presentations, and all attachments
thereto, must be filed through the
electronic comment filing system
available for that proceeding, and must
be filed in their native format (e.g., .doc,
.xml, .ppt, searchable .pdf). Participants
in this proceeding should familiarize
themselves with the Commission’s ex
parte rules.

sections 1.415 and 1.419 of the
Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.415,
