Telecommunications Act of 1996

The Commission is issuing this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in order to solicit comment on the proper implementation of Section 641 of the Communications Act. This NPRM is necessary to fulfill the statutory requirement in Section 505 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 that the Commission determine the hours of the day when a significant number of children are likely to view sexually explicit adult programming or other indecent programming on any channel of the service of a multichannel video programming distributor primarily dedicated to sexually oriented programming if such programming is not fully blocked or fully scrambled. This proceeding will permit the Commission to issue final rules.
