Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality with
this collection of information.
Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No
impact(s).
Needs and Uses: By Public Notice
released January 10, 2017, The Incentive
Auction Task Force and Media Bureau
Release Transition Progress Report Form
and Filing Requirements for Stations
Eligible for Reimbursement from the TV

Comment on the Filing of the Report by
Non-Reimbursable Stations, MB Docket
No. 16–306, Public Notice, 32 FCC Rcd
256 (IATF/Med. Bur. 2017). The
Incentive Auction Task Force and
Media Bureau described the information
that must be provided in the adopted
FCC Form 2100, Schedule 387
(Transition Progress Report Form) to be
filed by Reimbursable Stations and
when and how the Transition Progress
Reports must be filed. We also proposed
to require broadcast television stations
that are not eligible to receive
reimbursement of associated expenses
from the Reimbursement Fund (NonReimbursable Stations), but must
transition to new channels as part of the
Commission’s channel reassignment
plan, to file progress reports in the same
manner and on the same schedule as
Reimbursable Stations, and sought
comment on that proposal.
By Public Notice released May 18,
2017. The Incentive Auction Task Force
and Media Bureau Adopt Filing
Requirements for the Transition
Progress Report Form by Stations That
Are Not Eligible for Reimbursement
from the TV Broadcast Relocation Fund,
MB Docket No. 16–306, Public Notice,
DA 17–484 (rel. May 18, 2017) (referred
to collectively with Public Notice cited
above as Transition Progress Report
Public Notices). We concluded that
Non-Reimbursable Stations will be
required to file Transition Progress
Reports following the filing procedures
adopted for Reimbursable Stations.
The Commission received approval
from the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for FCC Form 2100,
Schedule 387 (Transition Progress
Report) on September 11, 2017.
