On September 17, 2010, the Commission adopted the Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, In the Matter of Amendment of Parts 73 and 74 of the Commissions Rules to Establish Rules for Digital Low Power Television Translator, and Television Booster Stations and to Amend Rules for Digital Class A Television Stations, MB Docket No. 03-185, FCC 10-172 (LPTV Digital Transition FNPRM). This document contains rules and policies for low power television stations (LPTV) to transition from analog to digital broadcasting. Due to the Commission proposing these rules and policies to effectuate the low power digital transition, the LPTV Digital Transition NPRM proposes a new PRA burdens on licensees. The new proposed policy contains an information collection requirement as follows:
LPTV Digital Transition Consumer Education Information. The Commission proposes to require, where technically feasible, stations in the low power television services to provide notice of their upcoming digital transition to their viewers.
US Code:
47 USC 301
Name of Law: Communications Act of 1934, as amended
If the Commission adopts the information collection requirements pertaining to the LPTV digital transition notices contained in FCC 10-172, this information collection will have program changes/increases to the annual number of responses of 5,500 and 22,000 to the annual burden hours.
Also, there will be adjustments to this information collection of $162,800 which are due to increases in consulting fees.
