SUBJECT: APPROVE VIACOM CABLEVISION'S (PINOLE SYSTEM) FCC FORMS 1210
(BASIC SERVICE TIER RATES).
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
APPROVE the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Forms 1210 submitted by
Viacom Cablevision (Pinole System) for the Basic Service Tier Rates effective after June
26, 1995 and after August 14, 1995.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: None
BACKGROUND:
On or about June 1, 1995 and July 14,1995, Viacom Cablevision (Viacom) submitted
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Forms 1210 for their Pinole system to the
Cable TV Administrator for review by the County (certified to regulate the basic service tier
rates in August, 1993). The review time for the FCC Forms 1210 was tolled by the Board
of Supervisors for ninety (90) days pursuant to Section 76.933(b) of the FCC rate
regulations.
Since additional time was needed to complete the review, the Board of Supervisors
adopted resolutions directing Viacom to keep certain accounting records of amounts
received from these rates pursuant to section 76.933(c) of the FCC rules.
After completing the review, staff determined that Viacom had calculated the basic service
tier rates consistent with established FCC guidelines, and that there was no refund liability
for the period covered by the FCC Forms 1210. (Effective June 26, 1995 and August
14,1995 and beyond.)
Therefore, staff recommends that the Board approve the FCC Forms 1210 submitted by
Viacom Cablevision (Pinole).
