FCC adopts DTV Enforcement Orders Totaling Over $6 Million
The Federal Communications Commission has adopted 11 enforcement orders related to the DTV transition. The Commission's DTV related enforcement efforts have focused on protecting consumers from unknowingly buying televisions that will not allow consumers to enjoy the full benefits of the digital transition. The orders demonstrate the Commission's commitment to strong enforcement in promoting the successful transition to digital television.
Specifically, the Commission adopted:
Seven Notices of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (NAL) for violations of its DTV labeling requirements. These requirements protect consumers from unknowingly purchasing television receivers incapable of receiving over-the-air digital programming.
A Forfeiture Order and Further Notice of Apparent Liability and an NAL for digital tuner rule violations. Enforcement in this area, which restricts the importation and interstate shipment of analog-only televisions, helps protect consumers from purchasing televisions that cannot receive digital signals.
Two NALs for violations of its V-Chip rules. These rules ensure that consumers' television receivers are capable of adapting to changes in the content advisory rating system.
