Dec. 30 Deadline To Challenge Reimbursement Form

Broadcasters have until Dec. 30 to file petitions for reconsideration or applications for review of the form broadcasters will use to seek reimbursement for expenses caused by the post-incentive auction repacking, said a Fletcher Heald broadcaster law firm Sunday blog post. The public notice announcing the form was published in Monday's Federal Register, saying the PN took effect then. “The release of the form does not necessarily mean that that form is yet in its absolute cast-in-stone final state. It still must be reviewed and approved by the Office of Management and Budget, and the Bureau has suggested that at least some tweaking might occur along the way,” said the blog. “If there’s anything in the version of the form as described in the Bureau’s notice that raises any questions, now is the time to try to get those questions resolved.”
