A local broadcast licensee is responsible for complying with Section 79.2 regardless of the technology used to deliver its signals to consumers (e.g., cable or direct broadcast satellite services). The Commission also notes that the ``pass through'' obligation generally imposed on video programming distributors under the closed captioning rules set forth in Section 79.1 also applies to emergency information subject to Section 79.2. Therefore, given that broadcasters may sometimes provide emergency information by way of closed captioning (as opposed to scrolls or crawls), the Commission reminds all video programming distributors (e.g., cable and satellite) of their obligation to pass through any captions that they receive from the originating source and their responsibility to maintain

  • accessible according to the Commission's access to emergency information rule (Section 79.2). We emphasize that emergency information does not have to be closed captioned, but may be made accessible via other visual means (e.g., scrolls, crawls, etc.). We also note that the ``pass through'' obligation generally imposed on video programming distributors under the closed captioning rules set forth in Section 79.1 also applies to emergency information subject to Section 79.2. Therefore, given that broadcasters may sometimes provide emergency information by way of closed captioning (as opposed to scrolls or crawls), we remind all video programming distributors (e.g., cable and satellite) of their obligation to pass through any captions that they receive from the originating source and their responsibility to maintain their

  • information. This rule regarding access to emergency information for persons with vision disabilities became effective February 2, 2001. A local broadcast licensee is responsible for complying with Section 79.2 regardless of the delivery technology used to deliver its signals to consumers. The ``pass through'' obligation generally imposed on video programming distributors under the closed captioning rules set forth in Section 79.1 also applies to emergency information subject to Section 79.2. All video programming distributors are required to pass through any captions that they receive from the originating source and are responsible for maintaining their equipment in working order to ensure the accurate transmission of the closed captions. This requirement applies to closed captioning for digital and analog programming. Emergencies and Emergency

  • vital emergency information. Accordingly, we clarify in this Public Notice that in evaluating whether a video programmer has complied with our closed captioning rules, we will not consider any lack of captioning that results from a de minimis or reasonable failure to caption emergency information, so long as critical emergency information is provided through some method of visual presentation. Section 79.1(e)(10) of the closed captioning rules provides that ``[i]n evaluating whether a video programming provider has complied with the requirement that all new non-exempt video programming must include closed captioning, the Commission will consider a showing that any lack of captioning was de minimis and reasonable under the circumstances.'' In this regard, the Commission has recognized that ``there may be times

  • OBLIGATION OF VIDEO PROGRAMMING DISTRIBUTORS TO MAKE EMERGENCY INFORMATION ACCESSIBLE TO PERSONS WITH HEARING DISABILITIES USING CLOSED CAPTIONING This Public Notice responds to questions concerning the scope and meaning of the August 7, 2006, Public Notice addressing the captioning of emergency information. The August Public Notice served as a reminder that, given the transition to 100% closed captioning under Section 79.1, which occurred on January 1, 2006, distributors that are not permitted by Commission rules to count captions created using the electronic newsroom technique (ENT) are now required to close caption all new non-exempt programming, including breaking news and emergency alerts. We provide, for purposes of illustration, some examples of the types of steps that video programming distributors may take to

The Consent Decree terminates investigations initiated by the Bureau regarding Comcast's compliance with section 79.1(c) of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. § 79.1(c). The Bureau and Comcast have negotiated the terms of a Consent Decree that would resolve these matters and terminate the investigation. A copy of the Consent Decree is attached hereto and incorporated by reference. After reviewing the terms of the Consent Decree, and evaluating the facts before us, we find that the

  • features. We believe our approach here provides flexibility during the ongoing digital television transition period. As noted above, there will be viewers who watch digital television programming on an analog television, by using a DTV converter. We clarify, therefore, that in order for programming distributors to count captioned digital television programming toward their closed captioning requirements in 47 C.F.R. Section 79.1, they also must transmit captions that can be decoded by the decoder in that analog set. PROCEDURAL MATTERS Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis. A Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis, required by Section 604 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, as amended by the Contract with America Advancement Act of 1996, Pub. L.

  • and rejected requests to exempt such programming under the ``primary textual'' exemption. The Commission has noted that users of closed captioning could turn off the captioning when they find that the captions interfere with other textual or graphical material. Accordingly, factor four does not favor the grant of HSC's requested exemption. In conclusion, after considering the factors enumerated in Section 79.1(f)(2), we find that HSC has not demonstrated that the closed captioning requirements would impose an undue burden on it. Although HSC demonstrates that closed captioning will raise its production costs, it fails to provide sufficient information to allow us to conclude that the increased costs would cause an undue burden. Further, we continue to believe that the audio description of

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the petition for partial reconsideration or clarification filed by HSN L.P. IS DENIED to the extent indicated above. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that HSN L.P. SHALL COMMENCE COMPLIANCE with Section 79.1 of the Commission's rules within thirty (30) days. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that HSN L.P.

This one, found at 79.1(d)(13), covers instructional programming that is locally produced by public television stations for use in grades K-12 and post secondary schools. Regarding how compliance is determined, the Commission also added a provision to the rules that recognizes that there may be times when the captioning requirements can be problematic due to a variety of factors.

All VPDs are required to submit their contact information to consumers and the Commission, regardless of whether the VPD is currently exempt from the obligation to provide closed captions. The Closed Captioning Contact Information Requirements, 47 C.F.R. § 79.1(i), which became effective on February 19, 2010, obligated VPDs to provide the Commission with their contact information for immediate and written closed captioning concerns by March 22, 2010.

This Public Notice also describes the new process for filing and processing written closed captioning complaints under Section 79.1 of the Commission's rules. The simplified complaint rules make it easier for consumers to bring their concerns about closed captions on television to the attention of the Commission.

The rules

The ``pass through'' obligation, generally requiring VPDs to ensure that viewers receive closed captions intact under section 79.1, also applies to emergency information encompassed by section 79.2. Distributors that are not permitted by Commission rules to count captions created using the electronic newsroom technique (ENT) are required to provide closed captions on all new non-exempt programming, including breaking news and emergency alerts.

In November 2008, the Commission sought comment on the closed captioning obligations of digital broadcasters that choose to use their digital channel to transmit several streams of programming, known as ``multicasting.'' Specifically, the Commission sought comment on the scope in a multicasting environment of section 79.1(d)(12) of the Commission's rules, which exempts from the closed captioning obligations video programming channels that produced annual gross revenues of less than $3 million during the previous calendar year. In order to determine whether each stream of a digital broadcaster's multicast operation must be captioned, the Commission proposed several possible alternatives, including: treat each multicast stream as a separate channel

Section 713(e) of the Communications Act, which was not amended by the CVAA, lists the factors to be considered when determining if the closed captioning rules create an ``undue burden'' on a party (these factors are repeated in the Commission's rules at 47 C.F.R. § 79.1(f)(2); see infra note 69). Thus, the Committee appears to consider the two standards to be interchangeable, at least in the closed captioning context.

This procedure will unnecessarily embroil the Commission in non-meritorious disputes. 31 Id., § 79.1(b) (defining captioning benchmarks based on number of hours per quarter). 13 The closed captioning complaint procedures provide a useful model for resolving disputes outside formal FCC processes. Those rules permit a complaint to be filed with the Commission only after the complaint has been sent to the cable operator responsible for delivering the cable program network and the operator has

I. THE BURDENS OF THE PART 79 RULES SHOULD BE REDUCED A. The 50-Hour Requirement Itself Imposes Significant Burdens. Part 79 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. $6 79.1 et seq., requires covered networks to provide 50 hours per calendar quarter of video-descripted programming in prime time or children's programming.* The Commission should recognize that the rules inherently place significant burdens on nonbroadcast networks. For several years, until video-descripted programming is present in the pool of motion picture and off-broadcast network programming available for license, nonbroadcast networks will be

The Commission wishes to remind the public that its closed captioning rules no longer use the term ``ENR'' and instead refer to the ``electronic newsroom technique,'' which does not refer to any particular company or its products. By an order released June 10, 1999, the Commission revised the wording of 47 C.F.R. § 79.1(e)(3), which deals with the acceptability, for meeting closed captioning requirements, of the method of captioning known as the electronic newsroom technique. Order, DA 99-1133 (June 10, 1999). Since its inception, the rule was intended to refer to a generic captioning methodology that generates captions using the output of news script computer or teleprompter systems.

We seek comment on whether the consideration of technical feasibility should be different in the context of satellite broadcast signal carriage. Finally, we note that satellite carriers are required to pass through closed captions regardless of the particular arrangements by which the broadcast station is carried. Section 79.1 of the Commission's rules, adopted to implement Section 713 of the Act, requires that all video programming distributors, as defined in Section 79.1(a)(2), shall deliver all programming received from the video programming owner or other origination source containing closed captioning to receiving television households with the original closed captioning data intact in a format that can be recovered and displayed

  • and rejected requests to exempt such programming under the ``primary textual'' exemption. The Commission has noted that users of closed captioning could turn off the captioning when they find that the captions interfere with other textual or graphical material. Accordingly, factor four does not favor the grant of HSC's requested exemption. In conclusion, after considering the factors enumerated in Section 79.1(f)(2), we find that HSC has not demonstrated that the closed captioning requirements would impose an undue burden on it. Although HSC demonstrates that closed captioning will raise its production costs, it fails to provide sufficient information to allow us to conclude that the increased costs would cause an undue burden. Further, we continue to believe that the audio description of

  • 9 FCC Rcd. at 6734 (adopting in part factors set forth in WGN Continental Broadcasting, Co. v. United Video, Inc., 693 F.2d 622 (7th Cir. 1982)) (``WGN''). We note that independent of the "program related" and "ancillary or supplementary" concepts, cable operators are required to pass through closed captioning data contained in analog and digital video programming. 47 C.F.R. §§76.606, 79.1(c). We further note that while the Commission has refrained from promulgating regulations requiring delivery of the codes necessary for operation of the "V-chip," it has done so based upon the voluntary assumption of this responsibility by video program distributors.

  • is measured on a per channel, calendar quarter basis. To ensure that video programming distributors have sufficient time to make the necessary arrangements to comply with closed captioning requirements, the initial benchmark for captioning was set for the first calendar quarter of 2000. For example, the timetable for closed captioning of new English language programming is set forth in Section 79.1(b)(1) of the Commission's rules. In 2000 and 2001, video program distributors must provide at least 450 hours of captioned new programming per channel during each calendar quarter. In 2002 and 2003, that number will increase to 900 hours per channel, per calendar quarter. In 2004 and 2005, that number will increase to an average of 1,350 hours per channel, per

The Commission wishes to remind the public that its closed captioning rules no longer use the term ``ENR'' and instead refer to the ``electronic newsroom technique,'' which does not refer to any particular company or its products. By an order released June 10, 1999, the Commission revised the wording of 47 C.F.R. § 79.1(e)(3), which deals with the acceptability, for meeting closed captioning requirements, of the method of captioning known as the electronic newsroom technique.

Since its inception, the rule was intended to refer to a generic captioning methodology that generates captions using the output of news script computer or teleprompter systems.

Under the new rules, a complainant may file informally with the Commission at any time alleging a video description rule violation. This procedure will unnecessarily embroil the Commission in non-meritorious disputes. 31 Id., § 79.1(b) (defining captioning benchmarks based on number of hours per quarter). 13 The closed captioning complaint procedures provide a useful model for resolving disputes outside formal FCC processes.
