ensure that the OMB Control Number appears on the form and on the
instructions. The FCC should consider adding reference to Section

the "Tier and Channel Definitions" section of the instructions as
the rule contains the complete definition of terms and describes
the process for preparing Small Cable System filings.

On May 5, 1995, the Commission
released a Sixth Report and Order and Eleventh Order on
Reconsideration in MM Docket Nos. 92-266 and 93-215. In this
rulemaking, the Commission amends its definition of small cable
entities and makes available to these systems a new regulatory
scheme to provide both rate relief and reduced administrative
burdens. To implement this scheme of rate regulation, the
Commission has created the FCC form 1230, a one-page form on which
small systems are to calculate permitted cable rates.
