Needs and Uses: The following is a summary of each rule section which contains information collection requirements for which the Commission seeks continued approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB): (a) Section 73.3700(e)(2) requires all broadcast television station licensees and multichannel video programming distributors (MVPDs) that are eligible to receive payment of relocation costs to file an estimated cost form providing an estimate of their reasonably incurred relocation costs no later than three months following the release of the Channel Reassignment Public Notice. If a broadcast television station licensee or MVPD seeks reimbursement for new equipment, it must provide a justification as to why it is reasonable under the circumstances to purchase new equipment rather than modify its corresponding current equipment in order to change channels or to continue to carry the signal of a broadcast television station that changes channels. Entities that submit their own cost estimates, as opposed to the predetermined cost estimates provided in the estimated cost form, must submit supporting evidence and certify that the estimate is made in good faith. Entities must also update the form if circumstances change significantly. (b) Section 73.3700(e)(3) requires all broadcast television station licensees and MVPDs that received an initial allocation from the TV Broadcaster Relocation Fund, upon completing construction or other reimbursable changes, or by a specific deadline prior to the end of the Reimbursement Period to be established by the Media Bureau, whichever is earlier, to provide the Commission with information and documentation, including invoices and receipts, regarding their actual expenses incurred as of a date to be determined by the Media Bureau. If a broadcast television station licensee or MVPD has not yet completed construction or other reimbursable changes by the Final Allocation Deadline, it must provide the Commission with information and documentation regarding any remaining eligible expenses that it expects to reasonably incur. PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 (c) Section 73.3700(e)(4) requires broadcast television station licensees and MVPDs that have received money from the TV Broadcaster Relocation Fund, after completing all construction or reimbursable changes, to submit final expense documentation containing a list of estimated expenses and actual expenses as of a date to be determined by the Media Bureau. Entities that have finished construction and have submitted all actual expense documentation by the Final Allocation Deadline will not be required to file at the final accounting stage. (d) Section 73.3700(e)(6) requires broadcast television station licensees and MVPDs that receive payment from the TV Broadcaster Relocation Fund to retain all relevant documents pertaining to construction or other reimbursable changes for a period ending not less than 10 years after the date on which it receives final payment from the TV Broadcaster Relocation Fund and to make available all relevant documentation upon request from the Commission or its contractor.

E:\FR\FM\27DEN1.SGM 27DEN1 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 247 / Thursday, December 27, 2018 / Notices Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No impact(s). Needs and Uses: The Commission adopted the Contest Rule in 1976 to address concerns about the manner in which broadcast stations were conducting contests over the air. The Contest Rule generally requires stations to broadcast material contest terms fully and accurately the first time the audience is told how to participate in a contest, and periodically thereafter. In addition, stations must conduct contests substantially as announced. These information collection requirements are necessary to ensure that broadcast licensees conduct contests with due regard for the public interest. The Contest Rule permit broadcasters to meet their obligation to disclose contest material terms on an internet website in lieu of making broadcast announcements. Under the amended Contest Rule, broadcasters are required to (i) announce the relevant internet website address on air the first time the audience is told about the contest and periodically thereafter; (ii) disclose the material contest terms fully and accurately on a publicly accessible internet website, establishing a link or tab to such terms through a link or tab on the announced website’s home page, and ensure that any material terms disclosed on such a website conform in all substantive respects to those mentioned over the air; (iii) maintain contest material terms online for at least thirty days after the contest has ended; and (v) announce on air that the material terms of a contest have changed (where that is the case) within 24 hours of the change in terms on a website, and periodically thereafter, and to direct consumers to the website to review the changes.

ACTION: Request for Public Comment. AGENCY: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is proposing data collection activities as part of the Health Profession Opportunity Grants (HPOG) to Serve TANF Recipients and Other Low Income Individuals. ACF has developed a multi-pronged research and evaluation approach for the HPOG Program to better understand and assess the activities conducted and their results. Two rounds of HPOG grants have been awarded—the first in 2010 (HPOG 1.0) and the second in 2015 (HPOG 2.0). There are federal evaluations associated with each round of grants. HPOG grants provide funding to government agencies, communitybased organizations, post-secondary educational institutions, and tribalaffiliated organizations to provide education and training services to Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) recipients and other low-income individuals, including tribal members. Under HPOG 2.0, ACF provided grants to five tribal-affiliated organizations and 27 non-tribal entities. OMB previously approved data collection under OMB Control Number 0970–0462 for the HPOG 2.0 National and Tribal Evaluation. The first submission, approved in August 2015, included baseline data collection instruments and the grant performance management system. A second SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00045 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 66715 submission, approved in June 2017, included additional data collection for the National Evaluation impact study, the National Evaluation descriptive study, and the Tribal Evaluation. A third submission for National Evaluation impact study data collection was approved in June 2018. The proposed data collection activities described in this Federal Register Notice will provide data for the impact, descriptive, and cost benefit studies of the 27 non-tribal grantees participating in the National Evaluation of HPOG 2.0. DATES: Comments due within 60 days of publication. In compliance with the requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Administration for Children and Families is soliciting public comment on the specific aspects of the information collection described above. ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed collection of information can be obtained and comments may be forwarded by writing to the Administration for Children and Families, Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation, 330 C Street SW, Washington, DC 20201, Attn: OPRE Reports Clearance Officer. Email address: OPREinfocollection@ acf.hhs.gov. All requests should be identified by the title of the information collection. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: The National Evaluation pertains only to the 27 non-tribal grantees that received HPOG 2.0 funding. The design for the National Evaluation features an impact study, a descriptive study, and a cost benefit study. The National Evaluation is using an experimental design to measure and analyze key participant outcomes including completion of education and training, receipt of certificates and/or degrees, earnings, and employment in a healthcare career. The impact evaluation will assess the outcomes for study participants that were offered HPOG 2.0 training, financial assistance, and support services, compared to outcomes for a control group that were not offered HPOG 2.0 services. ACF and the study team estimates that the non-tribal grantees will randomize about 40,000 applicants. As detailed in the burden estimates below, the study team will only survey a subset of those randomized. The goal of the descriptive study is to describe and assess the implementation, systems change, outcomes, and other important information about the operations of the 27 non-tribal HPOG grantees, which are operating 38 distinct programs. To achieve these goals, it is E:\FR\FM\27DEN1.SGM 27DEN1

    Needs and Uses: The following is a summary of each rule section 
which contains information collection requirements for which the 
Commission seeks continued approval from the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB):
    (a) Section 73.3700(e)(2) requires all broadcast television station 
licensees and multichannel video programming distributors (MVPDs) that 
are eligible to receive payment of relocation costs to file an 
estimated cost form providing an estimate of their reasonably incurred 
relocation costs no later than three months following the release of 
the Channel Reassignment Public Notice. If a broadcast television 
station licensee or MVPD seeks reimbursement for new equipment, it must 
provide a justification as to why it is reasonable under the 
circumstances to purchase new equipment rather than modify its 
corresponding current equipment in order to change channels or to 
continue to carry the signal of a broadcast television station that 
changes channels. Entities that submit their own cost estimates, as 
opposed to the predetermined cost estimates provided in the estimated 
cost form, must submit supporting evidence and certify that the 
estimate is made in good faith. Entities must also update the form if 
circumstances change significantly.
    (b) Section 73.3700(e)(3) requires all broadcast television station 
licensees and MVPDs that received an initial allocation from the TV 
Broadcaster Relocation Fund, upon completing construction or other 
reimbursable changes, or by a specific deadline prior to the end of the 
Reimbursement Period to be established by the Media Bureau, whichever 
is earlier, to provide the Commission with information and 
documentation, including invoices and receipts, regarding their actual 
expenses incurred as of a date to be determined by the Media Bureau. If 
a broadcast television station licensee or MVPD has not yet completed 
construction or other reimbursable changes by the Final Allocation 
Deadline, it must provide the Commission with information and 
documentation regarding any remaining eligible expenses that it expects 
to reasonably incur.
    (c) Section 73.3700(e)(4) requires broadcast television station 
licensees and MVPDs that have received money from the TV Broadcaster 
Relocation Fund, after completing all construction or reimbursable 
changes, to submit final expense documentation containing a list of 
estimated expenses and actual expenses as of a date to be determined by 
the Media Bureau. Entities that have finished construction and have 
submitted all actual expense documentation by the Final Allocation 
Deadline will not be required to file at the final accounting stage.
    (d) Section 73.3700(e)(6) requires broadcast television station 
licensees and MVPDs that receive payment from the TV Broadcaster 
Relocation Fund to retain all relevant documents pertaining to 
construction or other reimbursable changes for a period ending not less 
than 10 years after the date on which it receives final payment from 
the TV Broadcaster Relocation Fund and to make available all relevant 
documentation upon request from the Commission or its contractor.

    Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No impact(s).
    Needs and Uses: The Commission adopted the Contest Rule in 1976 to 
address concerns about the manner in which broadcast stations were 
conducting contests over the air. The Contest Rule generally requires 
stations to broadcast material contest terms fully and accurately the 
first time the audience is told how to participate in a contest, and 
periodically thereafter. In addition, stations must conduct contests 
substantially as announced. These information collection requirements 
are necessary to ensure that broadcast licensees conduct contests with 
due regard for the public interest.
    The Contest Rule permit broadcasters to meet their obligation to 
disclose contest material terms on an internet website in lieu of 
making broadcast announcements. Under the amended Contest Rule, 
broadcasters are required to (i) announce the relevant internet website 
address on air the first time the audience is told about the contest 
and periodically thereafter; (ii) disclose the material contest terms 
fully and accurately on a publicly accessible internet website, 
establishing a link or tab to such terms through a link or tab on the 
announced website's home page, and ensure that any material terms 
disclosed on such a website conform in all substantive respects to 
those mentioned over the air; (iii) maintain contest material terms 
online for at least thirty days after the contest has ended; and (v) 
announce on air that the material terms of a contest have changed 
(where that is the case) within 24 hours of the change in terms on a 
website, and periodically thereafter, and to direct consumers to the 
website to review the changes.
