Overview of Information Collection
1. Type of information collection:

2. The title of the form/collection:
Requirement that Movie Theaters
Provide Notice as to the Availability of
Closed Movie Captioning and Audio
Description.
3. The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
Form Number: None.
Component: The applicable
component within the Department of
Justice is the Disability Rights Section in
the Civil Rights Division.

4. Affected public who will be
required to comply, as well as a brief
abstract:
Affected Public (Primary): Businesses
and not-for-profit institutions that own,
operate, or lease a movie theater that has
one or more auditoriums showing
movies with closed movie captioning
and audio description, and that provide
notice of movie showings and times. For
purposes of the proposed rule and this
notice, ‘‘movie theater’’ means a facility
other than a drive-in theater that is used
primarily for the purpose of showing
movies to the public for a fee.
Affected Public (Other): None.
Abstract: The Department’s Civil
Rights Division, Disability Rights
Section (DRS), is requesting PRA
approval of a new collection that would
require movie theaters to disclose
information to the public regarding the
availability of closed movie captioning
and audio description for movies shown
in their auditoriums. On August 1, 2014,
the Department published a notice of
proposed rulemaking amending its ADA
title III regulation, 28 CFR part 36, to
specifically require movie theaters to
provide closed movie captioning and
audio description for patrons with
hearing and vision disabilities (NPRM).
79 FR 44976. The NPRM proposed a
new information collection requirement
that is the subject of this notice.
Proposed § 36.303(g)(5) stated that
‘‘movie theaters shall ensure that
communications and advertisements
intended to inform potential patrons of
movie showings and times, that are
provided by the theater through Web
sites, posters, marquees, newspapers,
telephone, and other forms of
communications, shall provide
information regarding the availability of
closed movie captioning and audio
description for each movie.’’ Movie
theaters’ disclosure of this information
will enable individuals with hearing
and vision disabilities to readily find
out which theaters are showing movies
with these features, and the times those
movies are being shown. All public
comments on the NPRM supported the
inclusion of a notice requirement in
some form.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: An estimated 1,876
respondents will be required to disclose
information concerning the availability
of closed movie captioning and audio
description in their existing
communications concerning movie
showings and times. However, this
number includes movie theaters that
show analog movies exclusively. In the
NPRM, the Department sought public

mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES
59658
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 168 / Tuesday, August 30, 2016 / Notices
comment on whether it should defer
application of the proposed
requirements for theaters with
auditoriums that show analog movies
exclusively. If the Department decides
to defer coverage of analog auditoriums,
then the number of respondents may
drop. DRS estimates that all of the
approximately 1,876 respondents will
comply with this requirement.
Based on a review of current movie
theater communications, it is estimated
that an average of 10 minutes per
respondent is needed to update existing
notices of movie showings and times
with this information. The Department
acknowledges, however, that the
amount of time it will take a respondent
to comply with this requirement will
likely vary because the amount of time
necessary depends on the number of
movies that the respondent is able to
show at any given time.
Frequency: The Department
anticipates that movie theaters will
likely update their existing listings of
movie showings and times to include
information concerning the availability
of closed movie captioning and audio
description on a regular basis. The
Department’s research suggests that this
information would only need to be
updated whenever a new movie with
these features is added to the schedule.
This will vary as some movies stay on
the schedule for longer periods of time
than other movies, but the Department
estimates that movie theaters will
update their listings to include this
information weekly. If, in the future, all
movies are distributed with these
features, specific notice on a movie-bymovie basis may no longer be necessary,
and a movie theater may only need to
advise the public that it shows movies
with closed movie captioning and audio
description.
6. An estimate of the total annual
public burden (in hours) associated with
the collection: The estimated public
burden associated with this collection is
16,259 hours. It is estimated that
respondents will take an average of 10
minutes (1⁄6 of an hour) to update their
existing listings of movie showings and
times to include this information and
that such updates will occur weekly for
new movies that are added to the
schedule. The total annual public
burden hours for disclosing this
information sum to 16,258.67 hours
(1,876 respondents × 1⁄6 hours × 52
times a year = 16,258 and 2⁄3 hours).
Assuming a movie theater spends 10
minutes each week to update its notices
of moving showings and times to
include this information, the average
movie theater firm will spend 8.67
hours annually (1⁄6 hour × 52 times)

comments on the NPRM supported the inclusion of a notice requirement in
some form.
5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of

respondents will be required to disclose information concerning the
availability of closed movie captioning and audio description in their

comment on whether it should defer application of the proposed
requirements for theaters with auditoriums that show analog movies
exclusively. If the Department decides to defer coverage of analog

that all of the approximately 1,876 respondents will comply with this
requirement.
Based on a review of current movie theater communications, it is
estimated that an average of 10 minutes per respondent is needed to
update existing notices of movie showings and times with this
information. The Department acknowledges, however, that the amount of
time it will take a respondent to comply with this requirement will

disclosing this information sum to 16,258.67 hours (1,876 respondents x
\1/6\ hours x 52 times a year = 16,258 and \2/3\ hours). Assuming a
movie theater spends 10 minutes each week to update its notices of
moving showings and times to include this information, the average
movie theater firm will spend 8.67 hours annually (\1/6\ hour x 52
times) performing the necessary tasks to comply with this requirement.
