As directed by Congress, NTIA implemented a program to provide consumers with continued over-the-air broadcast programming using analog-ony television sets. To achieve this, the use of digital-to-analog converter boxes is required. NTIA began accepting converter box applications on January 1, 2008. NTIA received many applications submitted by, or on behalf of, individuals living in nursing homes. Nursing homes are not considered households as defined in the current regulations and therefore the residents are not eligible to receive coupons. A Notice of Proposed Rulemaking was developed to resolve this problem.
