Annex VI

Schedule of United States

SECTOR: Communications

SUB-SECTOR: Broadcasting

INDUSTRY CLASSIFICATION: CPC 7524 Program Transmission Services

LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT: Federal

LEGAL CITATION: Communications Act of 1934, as amended,

Sections 309, 325, 47 U.S.C. §§309, 325 (1988)

DESCRIPTION: The United States will ensure that in

considering applications for a grant

of authority to transmit programming

to foreign stations for retransmission

into the United States under Section

325 of the Communications Act of 1934

(the Act), the Federal Communications

Commission (FCC) will not consider the

nationality of the affected stations

for the purpose of favoring a U.S.

station that is competing with a

Mexican station for affiliation with a

U.S. programmer. Rather the FCC will

apply the criteria for the grant of

such permit in the same manner as

would be applied to a domestic

broadcast station application under

Section 309 of the Act.

In addition, the term of the Section

325 permit shall be extended from one

year to five years in all situations

where it can be assured that the

retransmitting station is and will be

in full compliance with applicable

treaties. In assessing the public

interest, convenience, and necessity

required by the Act for the grant of

authorization under Section 325, the

primary criterion will be avoiding the

creation or maintenance of electrical

interference to U.S. broadcast

stations that violates applicable

treaty provisions. In evaluating this

and any other criteria permitted under

Section 309, the U.S. will ensure that

the Section 325 process shall not be

conducted in a manner that would

constitute an unnecessary restriction

on trade.
