The FCC will modify questions 22 and 23 and their instructions to use either the one or two question format proscribed on page 58789 of Volume 62, No. 210 of the Federal Register, dated October 30, 1997. Quesitons 79 and 80 shall also be modified accordingly. Finally, some guidance is required for those that chose to file electronically (questions 84-86) and other certifications contained in this form -- the instructions should be modified.
