Abstract
As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (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 information shall have practical utility; the accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 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; and ways to further reduce the information collection burden on small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees. The FCC may not conduct or sponsor 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.

information on the respondents, including the use of automated

ways to further reduce the information collection burden on small
business concerns with fewer than 25 employees. The FCC may not conduct
or sponsor 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.

notice, you should advise the contact listed below as soon as possible.

(MVPD).

Total Annual Burden: 36,114 hours.

Needs and Uses: In the Cable Television Consumer Protection and
Competition Act of 1992, Congress directed the FCC to adopt rules
governing the disposition of home wiring owned by a cable operator when
a subscriber terminates service. The rules at 76.800 et seq., implement
that directive. The intention of the rules is to clarify the status and
provide for the disposition of existing cable operator-owned wiring in
single family homes and multiple dwelling units upon the termination of
a contract for cable service by the home owner or MDU owner. Section
76.613(d) requires that when Multichannel Video Programming
Distributors (MVPDs) cause harmful signal interference MVPDs may be
required by the District Director and/or Resident Agent to prepare and
submit a report regarding the cause(s) of the interference, corrective
measures planned or taken, and the efficacy of the remedial measures.
