Pursuant to 47 CFR 79.3(d), a video 

programming provider may petition the 

Commission for a full or partial 

exemption from the audio description 

requirements based upon a showing that 

the requirements would be 

economically burdensome. (2) Petitions 

for exemption must be filed with the 

Commission, placed on public notice, 

and subject to comment from the public. 

(b) Non-form consumer complaints 

alleging violations of the audio 

description rules (47 CFR 79.3(e)). (1)

the subject of the complaint; (iii) a 

statement of facts sufficient to show that 

the video programming distributor has 

violated or is violating the 

Commission’s rules, and, if applicable, 

the date and time of the alleged 

violation; (iv) the specific relief or 

satisfaction sought by the complainant; 

(v) the complainant’s preferred format 

or method of response to the complaint 

(such as letter, facsimile transmission, 

telephone (voice/TRS/TTY), internet 

email, or some other method that would 

best accommodate the complainant’s 

disability); and (vi) a certification that 

the complainant attempted in good faith 

to resolve the dispute with the broadcast 

station or MVPD against whom the 

complaint is alleged. (2) After the 

Commission receives the complaint, the 

Commission notifies the video 

programming distributor (VPD) of the 

complaint, and the VPD generally has 

30 days to reply.

comments. 

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort 

to reduce paperwork burdens, and as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act (PRA), the Federal Communications 

Commission (FCC or Commission) 

invites the general public and other 

Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on the 

following information collections. 

Comments are requested concerning: 

whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) control 

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

PRA that does not display a valid OMB 

control number. 

DATES: Written comments should be 

submitted on or before February 11, 

2025. If you anticipate that you will be 

submitting comments but find it 

difficult to do so within the time period 

allowed by this notice, you should 

advise the contacts below as soon as 

possible. 

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to 

Cathy Williams, FCC, via email PRA@

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement and third-party 

disclosure requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. 151 and the 

Telecommunications Act of 1996, 

Public Law 104–104. 

Total Annual Burden: 130,990 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Needs and Uses: This information 

facilitates efficient interaction between 

premises owners and local exchange 

carriers (LECs) regarding the placement 

of the demarcation point, which marks 

the end of wiring under control of the 

LEC and the beginning of wiring under 

the control of the premises owner or 

subscriber. The demarcation point is a 

critical point of interconnection where 

competitive LECs can gain access to the 

inside wiring of the building to provide 

service to customers in the building. 

This collection also helps ensure that 

fixed wireless antennas covered by the 

OTARD rule comply with the 

Commission’s limits on radiofrequency 

exposure and provides the Commission 

with information on the state of the 

market. In short, this collection helps 

foster competition in local 

telecommunications markets by 

ensuring that competing 

telecommunications providers can 

provide services to customers in 

multiple tenant environments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FDIC 

is requesting OMB approval for the 

following new collection of information: 

1. Title: 2025 FDIC Survey of Deposit 

Insurance Awareness. 

OMB Number: 3064–NEW. 

Affected Public: Individual members 

of the public. 

Burden Estimate: 

Frequency of Response: Once. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

6,500. 

Average Time per Response: 4 

minutes. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden: 

26,000 minutes (434 hours). 

General Description of Collection: The 

FDIC proposes to field a statistical 

consumer survey to assess awareness of 

the FDIC and of deposit insurance. 

Survey results will inform FDIC public 

awareness, communication, education, 

outreach and research efforts regarding 

deposit insurance, and will identify 

information and awareness gaps in 

terms of content and demographic 

segments. Research questions will cover 

consumers’ knowledge of, attitudes 

towards, and behaviors regarding 

deposit insurance. The proposed 2025 

FDIC Survey of Deposit Insurance 

Awareness is intended to collect 

information regarding what consumers 

know about deposit insurance and how 

they learn it, what consumers think 

about deposit insurance and banking, 

and how this information shapes 

financial decisions. The survey will 

inform research and programmatic 

efforts to improve consumers’ awareness 

and understanding of deposit insurance, 

to help fulfill the agency’s mission of 

maintaining stability and public 

confidence in the nation’s financial 

system. 

The survey will assess consumers’ 

awareness and knowledge of the FDIC 

and its role regarding deposit insurance, 

including their understanding of the 

types of institutions and situations 

where deposit insurance applies, and 

the sources they use to learn about 

deposit insurance. The survey will also 

assess whether deposit insurance 

impacts consumers’ confidence in the 

banking system and perceptions and use 

of bank and nonbank financial services, 

including their likelihood to consider 

deposit insurance when making 

decisions about financial products and 

services. Finally, the survey will collect 

background information regarding 

consumers’ use of some bank and 

nonbank products, and the types of 

institutions they use to save or store 

money inside and outside of the 

banking system. 

The survey will be conducted in 

spring 2025 as part of Porter Novelli’s 

PN Styles survey, using the IPSOS 

Knowledge Panel, a probability-based 

online panel in the US. PN Styles is a 

large-scale, representative survey of U.S. 

adults that tracks consumer attitudes 

and behaviors. Interested members of 

the public may obtain a copy of the 

proposed survey questionnaire on the 

following web page: https://

www.fdic.gov/federal-registerpublications/fdic-deposit-insuranceawareness-survey. 

Request for Comment 

Comments are invited on (a) whether 

the collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the FDIC’s functions, including whether 

the information has practical utility; (b) 

the accuracy of the estimates of the 

burden of the information collection, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information
