Abstract: 47 CFR 76.934(d) states that small cable systems may obtain an extension of time to establish compliance with rate regulations provided that they can demonstrate that timely compliance would result in severe economic hardship. Requests for the extension of time should be addressed to the local franchising authorities ("LFAs"). The Commission renumbered and modified the language in 47 CFR 76.934 in 90 FR 31145 (July 14, 2025), FCC 25-33. The rule section has been renumbered to 47 CFR 76.934(d). The Commission is requesting approval of this non-substantive modification to the information collection.
