Video Description: Implementation of the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010

Resumen

In this document, the Commission proposes to expand its video description regulations by phasing them in for an additional 10 designated market areas (DMAs) each year for four years, beginning on January 1, 2021. The Commission also proposes to modernize the terminology in our regulations to use the term "audio description" rather than "video description." Finally, it proposes to make a non- substantive edit to the video description rules, to delete outdated references to compliance deadlines that have passed.
