Sec.  76.938   Proprietary information.

   A  franchising  authority  may  require  the production of proprietary
   information  to  make  a rate determination in those cases where cable
   operators have submitted initial rates, or have proposed rate increases,
   pursuant  to  an FCC Form 393 (and/or FCC Forms 1200/1205) filing or a
   cost-of-service  showing.  The  franchising  authority  shall  state a
   justification for each item of information requested and, where related to
   an FCC Form 393 (and/or FCC Forms 1200/1205) filing, indicate the question
   or section of the form to which the request specifically relates. Upon
   request to the franchising authority, the parties to a rate proceeding shall
   have access to such information, subject to the franchising authority's
   procedures governing non-disclosure by the parties. Public access to such
   proprietary information shall be governed by applicable state or local law.
