    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The 
statutory authority for this collection is contained in Sections 1, 4,

    Needs and Uses: In the Cable Television Consumer Protection and 
Competition Act of 1992, Congress directed the FCC to adopt rules 
governing the disposition of home wiring owned by a cable operator when 
a subscriber terminates service. The rules at 76.800 et seq., implement 
that directive. The intention of the rules is to clarify the status and 
provide for the disposition of existing cable operator-owned wiring in 
single family homes and multiple dwelling units upon the termination of 
a contract for cable service by the home owner or MDU owner. Section 
76.613(d) requires that when Multichannel Video Programming 
Distributors (MVPDs) cause harmful signal interference MVPDs may be 
required by the District Director and/or Resident Agent to prepare and 
submit a report regarding the cause(s) of the interference, corrective 
measures planned or taken, and the efficacy of the remedial measures.
