21742 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 74 / Monday, April 18, 2011 / Notices 

Law 111–260, as amended by Public 

Law 111–265. The Commission hosted a 

Town Hall meeting at the 26th Annual 

International Technology and Persons 

with Disabilities Conference, hosted by 

CSUN. The purpose of the Town Hall 

meeting was to educate the public about 

the Act’s provisions, and answer 

consumers’ questions regarding the Act. 

The Town Hall meeting was one of the 

many steps that the Commission has 

taken to obtain public feedback as it 

implements the Act. The Town Hall 

meeting at CSUN began with an 

orientation to the CVAA that focused on 

what the CVAA means to consumers 

with disabilities. The FCC then 

conducted an open dialogue on the 

Act’s provisions, providing an 

opportunity for attendees to express 

their opinions on ways the FCC can best 

implement the CVAA. For purposes of 

the Commission’s ex parte rules 

regarding permit-but-disclose 

proceedings (47 CFR 1.1206(b)(2) of the 

Commission’s rules), any comments 

made at the Town Hall on the 

implementation of the CVAA that 

pertain to the Act’s provisions on 

advanced communications services, 

video description, the deaf-blind 

equipment distribution program, and 

TRS contributions by VoIP providers, 

were deemed oral ex parte presentations 

in the pending rulemaking proceedings 

to which they relate. A written 

transcript of the Town Hall meeting 

(captured from computer-aided realtime transcription) was placed in the 

dockets of the relevant proceedings to 

comply with the disclosure 

requirements of the ex parte rules. The 

event was free and open to the public. 

Synopsis 

The CVAA is designed to ensure that 

people with disabilities have access to 

emerging twenty-first century 

communications and video 

programming technologies. The Act 

seeks to implement many 

recommendations of the National 

Broadband Plan, and will ensure access 

to advanced communications 

equipment and services, expand the 

availability of hearing aid compatible 

telephones used with those services, 

enhance the scope of and contributions 

to the nation’s telecommunications 

relay services, and create an equipment 

distribution program for people who are 

deaf-blind. In addition, the law will fill 

accessibility gaps in video programming 

through the provision of video 

description on television and closed 

captioning on television programming 

re-shown on the Internet, ensure the 

accessibility of video programming 

devices, and require televised 

emergency programming to be 

accessible by people who are blind or 

visually impaired. As it works through 

its implementation of the CVAA, the 

Commission is collaborating closely 

with consumer and industry 

stakeholders through two mandated 

advisory committees.

On February 25, 2011, the Wireless 

Telecommunications Bureau (Bureau) 

released a Public Notice seeking 

comment on the CTIA petition for 

declaratory ruling asking the 

Commission to clarify ‘‘the scope of 

Section 332(c)(3)(A)’s ban on state and 

local entry regulation.’’ The Petitioners 

stated that the Connecticut Department 

of Public Utility Control (Connecticut 

PUC) ‘‘ordered that wireless providers 

must apply for and obtain a Certificate 

of Public Convenience and Necessity 

(CPCN) from the [Connecticut PUC] 

before they can request permission to 

access public rights-of-way.’’ The 

Petitioners asked the Commission to 

declare that Connecticut’s CPCN 

requirement is a form of entry regulation 

that is prohibited by section 

332(c)(A)(3). 

On April 1, 2011, the Petitioners 

along with the Connecticut PUC 

(collectively, the ‘‘Parties’’) submitted a 

joint request for a 60-day extension of 

the comment and reply comment 

deadlines in this proceeding. The 

Parties state that the Connecticut PUC 

recently published draft changes to the 

requirements at issue in this matter and 

that a 60-day extension is ‘‘in the public 

interest because it will allow 

commenters a meaningful period of time 

to review, analyze, and respond to any 

final actions the [Connecticut PUC] 

takes on the draft decision.’’ 

The Bureau finds that granting the 

Parties’ request and extending the 


erowe on DSK5CLS3C1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 74 / Monday, April 18, 2011 / Notices 21743 

comment and reply comment deadlines 

by 60 days is in the public interest. 

Extending the comment period will 

ensure that parties have sufficient time 

to consider and address developments 

in this matter and the extent to which 

they moot the controversy at issue in the 

Petition. Therefore, interested parties 

will now have until June 10, 2011 to file 

comments and July 11, 2011 to file reply 

comments as opposed to the April 11, 

2011 and May 11, 2011 deadlines set 

forth in the Public Notice.
