preceding year as part of the in-depth ``MVPD'' investigation conducted 
once every five years.
    OMB Control Number: 3060-1163.

Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i)-(j), 211, 309, 310, and

Amended, IB Docket No. 11-133, Second Report and Order, FCC 13-50 (rel. 
Apr. 18, 2013) (Second Report and Order). Among other changes, the 
final rules eliminated the current need for licensees that have 
received a foreign ownership ruling to return to the Commission for 
approval of increased interests by previously approved foreign 
investors, of foreign ownership in subsidiaries or affiliates, or of 
new services or new geographic service areas. In addition, the final 
rules eliminated the current need for approval of certain corporate 
reorganizations, subject only to a post-closing notification.
    This information collection did not replace the existing 
information collection for section 310(b) of the Act (OMB Control 
Number 3060-0686). Licensees who received foreign ownership rulings 
prior to the effective date of the new rules will continue to be 
subject to the Commission's foreign ownership policies and procedures 
within the parameters of their rulings, until they seek and obtain a 
new ruling under the new rules. The Commission determined in the Second 
Report and Order that it would permit such licensees to file a new 
petition for declaratory ruling under the new rules, but would not 
require them to do so.

    Federal Communications Commission.

Federal Register Liaison Officer, Office of the Secretary.
