On 12/31/96, the Commission released a
MO&O, FCC 96-491, which modified certain rate regulation filing
requirements contained in section 76.922. Cable operators may now
adjust their permissible rates in their next rate filing to reflect
the rates the operators would currently be charging if they had
been permitted to include increases in external costs occurring
between September 30, 1992, and their initial date of regulation
reduced by inflation increases already received with respect to
those costs. All other information collection requirements reported
under this control number remain intact.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
