FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS

COMMISSION

Notice of Public Information

Collections Being Reviewed by the

Federal Communications Commission

January 3, 1997.

SUMMARY: The Federal Communications

Commission, as part of its continuing

effort to reduce paperwork burden

invites the general public and other

Federal agencies to take this

opportunity to comment on the

following information collection, as

required by the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1995, Public Law 104–13. An

agency may not conduct or sponsor a

collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid control

number. No person shall be subject to

any penalty for failing to comply with

a collection of information subject to the

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that

does not display a valid control number.

Comments are requested concerning (a)

whether the proposed collection of

information is necessary for the proper

performance of the functions of the

Commission, including whether the

information shall have practical utility;

(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s

burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance

the quality, utility, and clarify of the

information collected; and (d) ways to

minimize the burden of the collection of

information on the respondents,

including the use of automated

collection techniques or other forms of

information technology.

DATES: Persons wishing to comment on

this information collection should

submit comments March 14, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Direct all comments to

Dorothy Conway, Federal

Communications Commission, Room

234, 1919 M St., N.W., Washington, DC

20554 or via internet to

dconway@fcc.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For

additional information or copies of the

information collections contact Dorothy

Conway at 202–418–0217 or via internet

at dconway@fcc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

OMB Approval Number: 3060–0580.

Title: 47 CFR 76.504 Limits on

carriage of vertically integrated

programming.

Type of Review: Extension of existing

collection.

Respondents: Business or other forprofit.

Number of Respondents: 1,500.

Estimated Time Per Response: 15

hours.

Total Annual Burden: 22,500 hours.

Cost to Respondents: $7,500. ($5 per

respondent for photocopying and

administrative expenses associated with

recordkeeping.)

Needs and Uses: 47 CFR 76.504

requires cable operators to maintain

records regarding the nature and extent

of their attributable interests in all video

programming services as well as

information regarding their carriage of

such vertically integrated video

programming services on cable systems

in which they also have an attributable

interest. These records must be

maintained in operators’ public files for

a period of 3 years. The records are to

be made available to members of the

public, local franchising authorities and

the Commission on reasonable notice

and during regular business hours. The

records will be reviewed by local

franchising authorities and the

Commission to monitor compliance

with channel occupancy limits in

respective local franchise areas.

In 1993, the Commission’s initial

estimate of the burden of complying

with this information collection

requirement incorrectly based the

number of respondents on the number

of community units in the country,

instead of the number of cable

operators. The number of respondents

was thus estimated to be 31,000. Recent

publicly available information on hand

in the Commission indicates that there

are currently 1,468 existing cable

operators. To adjust for prospective new

market entries, we therefore have used

the number 1,500 in our estimate of the

number of respondents impacted by this

collection.

Acting Secretary.
