The Commission seeks to modify this submission to reflect a minor revision to Section 76.105(b), which requires broadcasters entering into contracts that contain syndicated exclusivity protection to notify affected cable systems within sixty calendar days of the signing of such a contract. The revision to Section 76.105(b) removes outdated language about contracts entered into before August 18, 1988 (see FCC 17-120, adopted on September 22, 2019). This revision is not expected to have any effect on the number of filers, the paperwork burdens, or the costs associated with this information collection. Please see the non-substantive change request justification for reason behind this change request submission to the Office of Managment and Budget (OMB).
