This OMB control
number applies to all of the information collection requirements
added by the FCC's implementation of Section 302 of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996. This collection also includes the
FCC Form 1275, Open Video Certification of Compliance which can be
filed in electronic format. The Commission should continue to work
on implementing a mechanism that allows parties to file the Form
1275 and other notices electronically -- rather than submitting
electronic materials via the mail. OMB encourages the FCC to rely
on existing mechanisms for collection information related to
regulations associated with Section 302. The FCC has permission to
use a date of issue for the FCC 1275 rather than an expiration
date.

In this proceeding, the Commission has
developed a record to determine what rules, if any, need to be
adopted to effectuate the requirements of section 302 of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996. Pursuant to parties filing
petitions for reconsideration and oppositions to petitions for
reconsideration, the Commission now issues a Third Report and Order
and Second Order on Reconsideration in which the Commission
reconsiders certain OVS rules.
