Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this collection is contained in Sections 309 and 337 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Needs and Uses: Section 73.682(d) of the Commission’s rules incorporates by reference the Advanced Television Systems Committee, Inc. (‘‘ATSC’’) Program System and Information Protocol (‘‘PSIP’’) standard ‘‘A/65C.’’ PSIP data is transmitted along with a TV broadcast station’s digital signal and provides viewers (via their DTV receivers) with information about the station and what is being broadcast, such as program information. The Commission has recognized the utility that the ATSC PSIP standard offers for both broadcasters and consumers (or viewers) of digital television (‘‘DTV’’). ATSC PSIP standard A/65C requires broadcasters to provide detailed programming information when transmitting their broadcast signal. This standard enhances consumers’ viewing experience by providing detailed information about digital channels and programs, such as how to find a program’s closed captions, multiple streams and V-chip information. This standard requires broadcasters to populate the Event Information Tables (‘‘EITs’’) (or program guide) with accurate information about each event (or program) and to update the EIT if more accurate information becomes available. The previous ATSC PSIP standard A/65–B did not require broadcasters to provide such detailed programming information but only general information. Federal Communications Commission.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: SUMMARY: FEDERAL MARITIME COMMISSION [Docket No. 22–31] Thompson Pipe Group, Inc. Complainant v. Omni Logistics LLC, Respondent; Notice of Filing of Complaint and Assignment ddrumheller on DSK30NT082PROD with NOTICES Served: November 29, 2022. Notice is given that a complaint has been filed with the Federal Maritime Commission (Commission) by Thompson Pipe Group, Inc. hereinafter ‘‘Complainant,’’ against Omni Logistics LLC (f/k/a Epic Freight Service), hereinafter ‘‘Respondent.’’ Complainant states that it is a corporation organized in the State of Texas. Complainant identifies the Respondent as a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Texas and a NonVessel-Operating Common Carrier. Complainant alleges that Respondent violated 46 U.S.C. 41102(c),41102(d), and 41104(a) in its practices, and assessment of charges, including demurrage and other non-freight charges, related to the movement of containers. The full text of the complaint can be found in the Commission’s Electronic Reading Room at https://www2.fmc.gov/readingroom/ proceeding/22-31/. This proceeding has been assigned to Office of Administrative Law Judges. The initial decision of the presiding officer in this proceeding shall be issued by November 29, 2023, and the final VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:34 Dec 02, 2022 Jkt 259001 I. Background In the February 2, 2011 Federal Register (76 FR 5862), we published a final rule with comment period titled ‘‘Medicare, Medicaid, and Children’s Health Insurance Programs; Additional Screening Requirements, Application Fees, Temporary Enrollment Moratoria, Payment Suspensions and Compliance Plans for Providers and Suppliers.’’ This rule finalized, among other things, provisions related to the submission of application fees as part of the Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP provider enrollment processes. As provided in section 1866(j)(2)(C)(i) of the Social Security Act (the Act) and in 42 CFR 424.514, ‘‘institutional providers’’ that are initially enrolling in the Medicare or Medicaid programs or CHIP, revalidating their enrollment, or adding a new Medicare practice location are PO 00000 Frm 00032 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 required to submit a fee with their enrollment application. An ‘‘institutional provider’’ for purposes of Medicare is defined at § 424.502 as ‘‘any provider or supplier that submits a paper Medicare enrollment application using the CMS–855A, CMS–855B (not including physician and non-physician practitioner organizations), CMS–855S, or associated internet-based PECOS enrollment application.’’ As we explained in the February 2, 2011 final rule (76 FR 5914), in addition to the providers and suppliers subject to the application fee under Medicare, Medicaid-only and CHIP-only institutional providers would include nursing facilities, intermediate care facilities for persons with intellectual disabilities (ICF/IID), and psychiatric residential treatment facilities; they may also include other institutional provider types designated by a state in accordance with their approved state plan. As indicated in § 424.514 and § 455.460, the application fee is not required for either of the following: • A Medicare physician or nonphysician practitioner submitting a CMS–855I. • A prospective or revalidating Medicaid or CHIP provider— ++ Who is an individual physician or non-physician practitioner; or ++ That is enrolled as an institutional provider in Title XVIII of the Act or another state’s Title XIX or XXI plan and has paid the application fee to a Medicare contractor or another state. II. Provisions of the Notice Section 1866(j)(2)(C)(i)(I) of the Act established a $500 application fee for institutional providers in CY 2010. Consistent with section 1866(j)(2)(C)(i)(II) of the Act, § 424.514(d)(2) states that for CY 2011 and subsequent years, the preceding year’s fee will be adjusted by the percentage change in the consumer price index (CPI) for all urban consumers (all items; United States city average, CPI–U) for the 12-month period ending on June 30 of the previous year. Consequently, each year since 2011 we have published in the Federal Register an announcement of the application fee amount for the forthcoming CY based on this formula. Most recently, in the October 25, 2021 Federal Register (86 FR 58917), we published a notice announcing a fee amount for the period of January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022 of $631.00. The $631.00 fee amount for CY 2022 was used to calculate the fee amount for 2023 as specified in § 424.514(d)(2). E:\FR\FM\05DEN1.SGM 05DEN1
