Abstract: Commission rules require television stations, broadcast television stations and program distributors to notify cable television system operators of non-duplication protection and exclusivity rights being sought within prescribed limitations and terms of contractual agreements. These various notification and disclosure requirements are to protect broadcasters who purchase the exclusive rights to transmit syndicated programming in their recognized markets. The Commission is requesting that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve the revision of this collection for a three year time period. This collection is being revised to receive approval for the information collection requirements that are contain in 47 CFR 76.105(b).
