    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for 
confidentiality with this collection of information.
    Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No impact(s).
    Needs and Uses: By Public Notice released January 10, 2017, The 
Incentive Auction Task Force and Media Bureau Release Transition 
Progress Report Form and Filing Requirements for Stations Eligible for 
Reimbursement from the TV Broadcast Relocation Fund and Seek Comment on 
the Filing of the Report by Non-Reimbursable Stations, MB Docket No. 
16-306, Public Notice, 32 FCC Rcd 256 (IATF/Med. Bur. 2017). The 
Incentive Auction Task Force and Media Bureau described the information 
that must be provided in the adopted FCC Form 2100, Schedule 387 
(Transition Progress Report Form) to be filed by Reimbursable Stations 
and when and how the Transition Progress Reports must be filed. We also 
proposed to require broadcast television stations that are not eligible 
to receive reimbursement of associated expenses from the Reimbursement 
Fund (Non-Reimbursable Stations), but must transition to new channels 
as part of the Commission's channel reassignment plan, to file progress 
reports in the same manner and on the same schedule as Reimbursable 
Stations, and sought comment on that proposal.
    By Public Notice released May 18, 2017. The Incentive Auction Task 
Force and Media Bureau Adopt Filing Requirements for the Transition 
Progress Report Form by Stations That Are Not Eligible for 
Reimbursement from the TV Broadcast Relocation Fund, MB Docket No. 16-
306, Public Notice, DA 17-484 (rel. May 18, 2017) (referred to 
collectively with Public Notice cited above as Transition Progress 
Report Public Notices). We concluded that Non-Reimbursable Stations 
will be required to file Transition Progress Reports following the 
filing procedures adopted for Reimbursable Stations.
    The Commission received approval from the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) for FCC Form 2100, Schedule 387 (Transition Progress 
Report) on September 11, 2017.
