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.
