Commission's burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility

Order (R&O), In the Matter of the Implementation of the Cable Act 
Reform Provisions of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, FCC 99-57, CS 
Docket No. 96-85, which further amended the Commission's cable 
television rules pursuant to the Telecommunications Act of 1996. With 
this R&O, the FCC has accounted for various requirements in its rules 
not already accounted for in the initial and final rules. The 
regulations serve a variety of purposes for subscribers, cable 
operators, franchising authorities, and the FCC, i.e., 47 CFR 76.952 
requires a cable operator to include the franchising authority contact 
information in a subscriber's monthly billing statement; 47 CFR 76.990 
requires a cable operator to certify in writing the franchising 
authority that it qualifies as ``small cable operator;'' and 47 CFR 
76.1404 requires a local exchange carrier to file contract information 
with the FCC to determine whether its use of a cable operator's 
facilities is reasonably limited on scope and duration.
