This collection is being revised to
reflect the removal of 47 CFR 76.1708
made in the Public Inspection File R&O.
The other information collection
requirements contained under this
collection and have not changed are as
follows:
47 CFR 76.56 requires cable television
systems to carry signals of all qualified
local commercial and Noncommercial
Educational (NCE) stations requesting
carriage. As a result of this requirement,
the following information collection
requirements are needed for this
collection:
47 CFR 76.1709(a) states that the
operator of every cable television system
shall maintain for public inspection a
file containing a list of all broadcast
television stations carried by its system
in fulfillment of the must-carry
requirements pursuant to 47 CFR 76.56.
Such list shall include the call sign;
community of license, broadcast
channel number, cable channel number,
and in the case of a noncommercial
educational broadcast station, whether
that station was carried by the cable
system on March 29, 1990.
47 CFR 76.1709(c) states that a cable
operator shall respond in writing within
30 days to any written request by any
person for the identification of the
signals carried on its system in
fulfillment of the requirements of 47
CFR 76.56.
47 CFR 76.1614 states that a cable
operator shall respond in writing within
30 days to any written request by any
person for the identification of the
signals carried on its system in
fulfillment of the requirements of 47
CFR 76.56. The required written
response may be delivered by email, if
the consumer used email to make the
request or complaint directly to the
cable operator, or if the consumer
specifies email as the preferred delivery
method in the request or complaint.
Additionally, 47 CFR 76.1620 states
that if a cable operator authorizes
subscribers to install additional receiver
connections, but does not provide the
subscriber with such connections, or
with the equipment and materials for
such connections, the operator shall
notify such subscribers of all broadcast
stations carried on the cable system
which cannot be viewed via cable
without a converter box and shall offer
to sell or lease such a converter box to
such subscribers. Such notification must
be provided by June 2, 1993, and
annually thereafter and to each new
subscriber upon initial installation. The
notice, which may be included in
routine billing statements, shall identify
the signals that are unavailable without
an additional connection, the manner

development of employment programs
for nonresident parents by soliciting
information and recommendations from
a broad array of stakeholders in the
public and private sectors, including
state, regional, tribal, and local areas.
The Foundations for Evidence-Based
Policymaking Act of 2018 (Evidence
Act) requires federal agencies to develop
evidence-building plans to identify and
address policy questions relevant to
programs, policies, and regulations of
the agency. In this vein, ACF will
analyze information collected from this
RFI to continue developing a learning
and action agenda to better understand
the effectiveness of employment
programs for nonresident parents.
DATES: The comment period for this RFI,
originally published November 20, 2019
at 84 FR 64079, is extended. Send
comments on or before March 30, 2020.
ADDRESSES: Submit questions,
comments, and supplementary

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Invitation
to Comment: HHS invites comments
regarding the questions included in this
notice. To ensure that your comments
are clearly stated, please identify the
specific question, or other section of this
notice, that your comments address.
1.0 Background
A key responsibility of all parents is
to economically support their children,
whether or not they live with them.
Parents are better able to fulfill this
responsibility when they are working
regularly. While the Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)
program has encouraged parents
receiving government assistance (who
are typically custodial mothers) to
pursue employment, increasing work
among nonresident parents (who are
typically fathers and not receiving
assistance) remains a challenge. An
analysis by the federal Office of Child
Support Enforcement (OCSE) estimates
that in 2015, 13% of noncustodial
parents had been out of work for at least
a year.
ACF recently issued three Information
Memorandums to encourage states to
provide employment services to
noncustodial parents. TANF–ACF–IM–
18–01 reminded states that they may
use federal TANF funds and state
maintenance-of-effort funds to provide
employment services to noncustodial
parents (please see https://
www.acf.hhs.gov/ofa/resource/tanf-acfim-2018-01the-use-of-tanf-funds-topromote-employment-programs-fornoncustodial-parents). OCSE–ACF–IM–
