The information collection
requirements contained in 47 CFR
73.686(e) describes the procedures for
measuring the field strength of
television signals. These procedures are
used to determine whether a household
is eligible to receive a distant digital
network signal from a satellite television
provider, relying on existing, proven
methods. The signal measurement
procedures include provisions for the
location of the measurement antenna,
antenna height, signal measurement
method, antenna orientation and
polarization, and data recording.
Pursuant to 47 CFR 73.686(e)(3),
satellite and broadcast industries
making field strength measurements
shall maintain written records and
include the following information: (a) A
list of calibrated equipment used in the
field strength survey, which for each
instrument specifies the manufacturer,
type, serial number and rated accuracy,
and the date of the most recent
calibration by the manufacturer or by a
laboratory. Include complete details of
any instrument not of standard
manufacture; (b) A detailed description
of the calibration of the measuring
equipment, including field strength
meters, measuring antenna, and
connecting cable; (c) For each spot at
the measuring site, all factors which
may affect the recorded field, such as
topography, height and types of
vegetation, buildings, obstacles,
weather, and other local features; (d) A
description of where the cluster
measurements were made; (e) Time and
date of the measurements and signature
of the person making the measurements;
(f) For each channel being measured, a
list of the measured value of field
strength (in units of dBm after
adjustment for line loss and antenna
factor) of the five readings made during
the cluster measurement process, with
the median value highlighted.

The statutory authority for this
information collection is contained in
the Twenty-First Century
Communications and Video
Accessibility Act of 2010 (CVAA),
Public Law 111–260, 124 Stat. 2751, and
sections 4(i), 4(j), 303(r), 303(u), 303(aa),
303(bb), and 716(g) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 154(j),

617(g).
Total Annual Burden: 39,350 hours.
Annual Cost Burden: $74,100.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will use the information submitted by a
digital apparatus manufacturer or other
party to determine whether it is
achievable for digital apparatus to be
fabricated so that control of appropriate
built-in apparatus functions are
accessible to and usable by individuals
who are blind or visually impaired or
whether it is achievable to comply with
the information, documentation, and
training requirements. The Commission
will use the information submitted by
an Multichannel Video Programming
Distributor (MVPD) or navigation device
manufacturer or other party to
determine whether it is achievable for
on-screen text menus and guides
provided by navigation devices for the
display or selection of multichannel
video programming to be audibly
accessible in real time upon request by
individuals who are blind or visually
impaired or whether it is achievable to
comply with the information,
documentation, and training
requirements. Consumers will use the
information provided by manufacturers
of digital apparatus on the full
functionalities of digital apparatus, such
as instructions and product information,
as well as information provided by
manufacturers and MVPDs in
accordance with the information,
documentation, and training
requirements, in order to have
accessible information and support on
how to use the device. Consumers will
use the information provided by
manufacturers and MVPDs notifying
consumers of the availability of
accessible digital apparatus and
navigation devices to determine which
devices accessible and whether they
wish to request an accessible device.
MVPDs and manufacturers of navigation
devices will use the information
provided by consumers who are blind or
PO 00000
Frm 00052
Fmt 4703

visually impaired consumers when
requesting accessible navigation devices
to fulfill such requests. MVPDs will use
information provided by customers who
are blind or visually impaired as
reasonable proof of disability as a
condition to providing equipment and/
or services at a price that is lower than
that offered to the general public.
Consumers will use the contact
information of covered entities to file
written complaints regarding the
accessibility requirements for digital
apparatus and navigation devices.
Finally, the Commission will use
information received pursuant to the
complaint procedures for violations of
sections 79.107–79.109 to enforce the
Commission’s digital apparatus and
navigation device accessibility
requirements. The Commission will
forward complaints, as appropriate, to
the named manufacturer or provider for
its response, as well as to any other
entity that the Commission determines
may be involved, and it may request
additional information from relevant
parties.
