Form, with supporting cost
documentation, must be submitted each
time an entity makes a request for
reimbursement from the Fund; and a
decision that cost documentation, as
well as the name, address, and other
identifying information pertaining to
vendors, will not be made publicly
available.

contained herein should be submitted to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a
summary of the Commission’s
document, DA 15–1238; GN Docket No.
12–268, released October 30, 2015. The
full text of this document is available for
inspection and copying during normal
business hours in the FCC Reference
Center (Room CY–A257), 445 12th
Street SW., Washington, DC 20554. The
full text may also be downloaded at:
www.fcc.gov.
The Media Bureau adopts the final
catalog of expenses, embedded in FCC
Form 2100, Schedule 399, to be used by
broadcasters and MVPDs seeking
reimbursement from the TV Broadcaster
Relocation Fund following the Incentive
Auction. The costs included in the
catalog are not intended to be an
exhaustive list of reimbursable
expenses, but rather represent those
expenses that relocated broadcasters
and MVPDs will most commonly incur
as a result of the channel repack.
Entities can submit expenses not listed
in the catalog using the ‘‘other’’ catchall categories found throughout the
catalog. The Commission will send FCC
Form 2100, Schedule 399 to the Office
of Management and Budget for final
approval of the information collection
requirement contained therein under
the Paperwork Reduction Act. The final
version of the Reimbursement Form,
FCC Form 2100, Schedule 399
(Reimbursement Form or Form),
including the embedded expense
catalog, will be submitted to the Office
of Management and Budget for approval
under the Paperwork Reduction Act.
In addition, the Media Bureau adopts
a process for making payments from the
TV Broadcaster Relocation Fund via the
Commission’s internal vendor payment

system, rather than requiring recipients
to establish individual accounts with
the U.S. Treasury, as had previously
been announced. The Media Bureau
found that this change would mitigate
against waste, fraud and abuse by saving
Commission resources and providing
the agency with more control over the
creation of payment accounts.
The Media Bureau also adopts a
process wherein a broadcaster or MVPD
must submit information on the
Reimbursement Form, with supporting
cost documentation, each time it makes
a request for reimbursement from the
Fund, not only at the beginning and end
of the reimbursement period.
Finally, after seeking comment on
which data points, if any, should be
considered confidential or nor subject to
public disclosure, the Media Bureau
concludes that cost documentation
submitted by entities seeking
reimbursement for actual costs (for
example, invoices), as well as the name,
address, and other identifying
information pertaining to the vendor
providing equipment or service to a
specific broadcaster or MVPD, will not
be made publicly available.
The Commission will send a copy of
this document in a report to be sent to
Congress and the Government
Accountability Office pursuant to the
Congressional Review Act, see 5 U.S.C.
801(a)(1)(A).
