Abstract
This document corrects the final rules portion of a Federal Register document published on August 23, 2016. That Federal Register document inadvertently removed existing rules requiring video programming distributors to exercise best efforts to obtain certifications of compliance from video programmers and requiring video programmers adopting Best Practices to certify to video programming distributors regarding adherence to Best Practices and to make those certifications widely available. That Federal Register document also prematurely amended rules to require video programmer registration and certification of compliance.
