The FCC Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau dismissed three petitions for closed captioning exemption. The bureau required additional information to evaluate whether the petitioners’ programming should be exempted, it said in a public notice (http://bit.ly/1jBLrgb). Hunting Park Church of Christ in Shreveport, La., and C&G Productions in Arlington, Va., “ultimately failed to provide the requested supplemental information,” it said. They must comply with the closed captioning requirements “with regard to the programming that was the subject of their petitions by July 1, 2014, which is 90 days after the release of this Notice dismissal,” the bureau said. Kiya Amajioyi Co. of Salisbury, Md., withdrew its petition, rendering it moot, the bureau said.
