SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 3060–1115. 

Title: DTV Consumer Education 

Initiative; Section 73.674; FCC Form 

388. 

Form Number: FCC Form 388. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other for– 

profit entities; Not–for–profit 

institutions; State, local or tribal 

governments. 

Number of Respondent and 

Responses: 200 respondents; 1,800 

responses. 

Estimated time per Response: 0.50 

hours – 85 hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement; Quarterly 

reporting requirement; Third party 

disclosure requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain benefits. The statutory authority 

for this collection of information is 

contained in Sections 4(i), 303(r), 335, 

and 336 of the Communications Act of 

1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 154(i), 

303(r), 335, and 336. 

Total Annual Burden: 10,940 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: None. 

Confidentiality: No need for 

confidentiality required with this 

collection of information. 

Privacy Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Needs and Uses: After the nationwide 

DTV transition date of June 12, 2009, 

full–power television broadcast stations 

must transmit only digital signals, and 

may no longer transmit analog signals, 

except for limited analog ‘‘nightlight’’ 

service. The DTV Delay Act directs the 

Commission to take any actions 

‘‘necessary or appropriate to implement 

the provisions, and carry out the 


mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICESEN17AU09.013</GPH>
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 157 / Monday, August 17, 2009 / Notices 41435 

purposes’’ of the DTV Delay Act, and to 

do so within 30 days. Congress 

extended the transition date in order to 

permit analog service to continue until 

consumers have had additional time to 

prepare. But Congress also directed the 

Commission to provide flexibility for 

stations wanting to transition prior to 

the new date. Stations may have made 

extensive preparations for a February 17 

digital transition and some may have 

difficulty altering their commitments at 

this time. The Commission’s challenge 

is to provide opportunities for some 

stations to end analog broadcasting early 

without sacrificing the goal of giving 

consumers additional time to prepare. 

Therefore, Commission is revising 

this information collection to eliminate 

most of the requirements after June 30, 

2009; however, broadcasters must 

continue to comply with the consumer 

education information collection 

requirements until they have completed, 

and are operating, their final, full– 

authorized post–transition (DTV) 

facility. 

The information collection 

requirements that will remain in the 

collection are as follows: 

Broadcaster Education and Reporting 

(47 CFR 73.674). 

(a) On–air Education. Broadcasters 

must provide on–air DTV Transition 

consumer education information (e.g., 

via Public Service Announcements 

(PSAs), information crawls, snipes or 

tickers) to their viewers. Broadcasters 

must comply with one of three 

alternative sets of rules as provided in 

the Report and Order. Stations must also 

provide the following additional 

information: (1) geographically specific 

information detailing areas that are 

covered by the Grade B analog contour 

but are not predicted to receive digital 

service; (2) educational information 

describing areas where analog signal 

strength is generally sufficient for 

viewers to rely on an indoor antenna but 

where it is likely that they will need an 

outdoor antenna to receive the digital 

signal; (3) information to consumers 

about the need to periodically ‘‘rescan’’ 

when using over–the–air digital 

reception equipment, particularly 

through the end of the transition; (4) 

stations that are changing their 

broadcast frequency from VHF to UHF 

(or vice versa), information to 

consumers about the need for additional 

or different equipment to avoid loss of 

service. Stations may include this 

information to satisfy part of their 

existing PSA requirements. In addition, 

if applicable, stations must provide 

specific notice to analog viewers who 

are likely to lose over–the–air service 

from the station due to changes in the 

geographic coverage area or population 

served by the station during or after the 

transition. Broadcasters must continue 

to provide on air education to their 

viewers until they complete their 

transition to digital–only operations and 

are operating their final, full–authorized 

post–transition (DTV) facility. In most 

cases, stations will be operating at full– 

authorized post–transition (DTV) 

facilities no later than the June 12, 2009 

nationwide transition deadline, but, in 

some cases, stations will not have 

completed construction of their final, 

fully–authorized DTV facility by June 12 

and, therefore, must continue to provide 

on–air DTV Transition consumer 

education information to their viewers. 

(b) DTV Consumer Education 

Quarterly Activity Report, FCC Form 

388. Broadcasters must electronically 

file a report about its DTV Transition 

consumer education efforts to the 

Commission on a quarterly basis. 

Broadcasters must begin filing these 

quarterly reports no later than April 10, 

2008. In addition, if the broadcaster has 

a public Web site, they must post these 

reports on that Web site. Broadcasters 

must complete these filings every 

quarter until they complete their 

transition to digital–only operations and 

are operating their final, full–authorized 

post–transition (DTV) facility. 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0386. 

Title: Special Temporary 

Authorization (STA) Requests; 

Notifications; and Informal Filings; 

Sections 1.5, 73.1615, 73.1635 and 

73.1740; CDBS Informal Forms. 

Form Number: Not applicable. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other for– 

profit entities; Not–for–profit 

institutions. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 3,070 respondents; 3,070 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 0.50 

hours – 4 hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in Sections 1, 4(i) and (j), 

7, 301, 302, 303, 307, 308, 309, 312, 316, 

318, 319, 324, 325, 336, and 337 of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended. 

Confidentiality: No need for 

confidentiality required with this 

collection of information. 

Total Annual Burden: 3,105. 

Total Annual Costs: $1,929,410. 

Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No 

impact(s). 

Needs and Uses: The Commission is 

revising this information collection to 

eliminate the information collection 

requirements necessitated by the DTV 

transition. After the June 12, 2009 

nationwide transition deadline, there 

will be no further need for these DTV 

transition–related collections. In 

addition, the Commission is revising 

this collection to update the specific 

Informal Application filing forms that 

may be filed electronically through the 

Commission’s Consolidated Database 

System (‘‘CDBS’’). 

The following information collection 

requirements are contained in this 

collection: 

Special Temporary Authority (STA) 

Requests (47 CFR § 73.1635). Broadcast 

stations (AM, FM, TV, Class A TV or 

LPTV licensees or permittes) may file a 

request for STA approval to permit a 

station to operate a broadcast facility for 

a limited period at a specified variance 

from the terms of the station’s 

authorization or requirements of the 

FCC rules. Stations may file a request 

for STA approval for a variety of 

reasons. The request must describe the 

operating modes and facilities to be 

used. Types of STA requests include 

Engineering and Legal STAs. 

Change in Official Mailing Address 

for Broadcast Station (47 CFR § 1.5). 

Broadcast stations may file this form to 

report any changes in the station’s 

mailing address, but cannot use this 

form to correct or change the name of 

the licensee. 

Consummation Notice. Broadcast 

stations may file this form to notify the 

Commission when an assignment of 

license or transfer of control is 

consummated. The form also may be 

used by the station to request an 

extension of time to consummate. 

Silent Notifications (47 CFR § 

73.1740). Broadcast stations (AM, FM, 

TV or Class A TV licensees) may file 

this form to notify the Commission of 

the station’s suspension of broadcast 

operations pursuant to 47 C.F.R. § 

73.1740. Broadcast stations also may use 

this form to request a silent STA or 

extension thereof. Types of Silent 

Notifications include Silent STA, 

Notification of Suspension, Resumption 

of Operations, and Extension of Silent 

STA Request. 

Section 73.1615 notifications (47 CFR 

§ 73.1615). Broadcast stations (AM, FM, 

TV or Class A TV licensees) must file a 

notification under 47 CFR 73.1615(c) 

when such a station is in the process of 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES

discontinue operation or to operate with 

temporary facilities to continue program 

service for a period not more than 30 

days. Licensees or permittees of 

directional or nondirectional FM, TV or 

Class A TV or nondirectional AM must 

file a notification and comply with 47 

CFR 73.1615(a). Licensees or permittees 

of a directional AM station whose 

modification does not involve a change 

in operating frequency must file a 

notification and comply with 47 CFR 

73.1615(b). Licensees or permittees of a 

directional AM station whose 

modification does involve a change in 

frequency and determines it is necessary 

to discontinue operation for a period not 

more than 30 days must file a 

notification and comply with 47 CFR 

73.1615(d)(2). 

Section 73.1615 informal letter 

requests (47 CFR § 73.1615). Broadcast 

stations (AM, FM, TV or Class A TV 

licensees or permittees) must file an 

informal letter request under 47 CFR 

73.1615(c)(1) when such a station is in 

the process of modifying existing 

facilities pursuant to 47 CFR 73.1615(a) 

or (b) and determines it is necessary to
