404 Federal Communications Commission Reports
(a)(2) Only cable systems that are not subject to effective competition may be
rate regulated. A cable system will be determined to have effective competition
whenever at least three unduplicated signals serve the cable community. Signals
shall be counted if they place a Grade B contour (as defined in 76.33 of our
rules) over any portion of the cable community, are significantly viewed within
the cable community (as defined by 76.54 of our rules) or are translator
stations licensed to serve the cable community, provided that the translators are
not used to retransmit stations already providing Grade B contour or
significantly viewed signals within the cable community. The Commission may
grant exceptions to this standard where the franchising authority demonstrates
with engineering studies in accordance with 73.686 of the Commission's rules
and other showings that such signals are not in fact available within the
community.
(e) Any party may petition the Commission for relief of the provisions in this
section in accordance with the provisions and procedures set forth in Section
76.7 for petitions for special relief.
