On December 18, 2007, the Commission adopted a Report and Order and Third Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (the “Order”) in MB Docket Nos. 07-294; 06-121; 02-277; 04-228, MM Docket Nos. 01-235; 01-317; 00-244; FCC 07-217. The Order adopts rule changes designed to expand opportunities for participation in the broadcasting industry by new entrants and small businesses, including minority- and women-owned businesses. This non-substantive change request is being submitted for FCC Form 303-S. This change to Form 303-S is due to the Commission experiencing technical difficulties when trying to add a shaping out option for noncommercial respondents on page 3, Section II, Question 7 of FCC Form 303-S. Since these technical problems have occurred, the Commission now has to add a N/A (not applicable) option for noncommercial respondents to select when addressing Question 7.

The Commission has program changes to the annual burden hours of +2,676 and cost burden +1,737,809 due to the Commission’s adoption of the Diversity Order and its other changes to the form. Form 303-S has been revised (1) to include a new certification concerning a commercial licensee’s compliance with the Commission’s rule against discrimination in advertising sales agreements, (2) to include a new certification concerning a station’s adherence to its minimum operating schedule during the preceding license term, and (3) to eliminate the requirement that certain full power AM and FM licensees submit an RF emissions exhibit. We also made modifications to the general Instructions for Form 303-S that do not add burdens because they are editorial in nature. The Commission notes that the burden hours and burden costs published in the Federal Register on October 13, 2010 (75 FR 62816) have been reduced to reflect that only applicants for renewal of commercial broadcast stations are required to complete the new certification in Section II, Item 7 that their advertising sales agreements do not discriminate on the basis of race or ethnicity and that all such agreements contain nondiscrimination clauses. Noncommercial stations, by their own nature, do not enter into commercial sales agreements.
