2016-28198 Review of Foreign Ownership Policies for Broadcast, Common Carrier and Aeronautical Radio Licensees Rule In this Report and Order, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) extends its streamlined foreign ownership rules and procedures that apply to common carrier and certain aeronautical licensees under Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") to broadcast licensees, with certain modifications to tailor them to the broadcast context. The Commission also reforms the methodology used by both common carrier and broadcast licensees that are, or are controlled by, U.S. public companies to assess compliance with the 20 percent foreign ownership limit in Section 310(b)(3), and the 25 percent foreign ownership benchmark in Section 310(b)(4) of the Act, in order to reduce regulatory burdens on applicants and licensees. Finally, the Commission makes certain technical corrections and clarifications to its foreign ownership rules. 2016-12-01 2016 12 https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/12/01/2016-28198/review-of-foreign-ownership-policies-for-broadcast-common-carrier-and-aeronautical-radio-licensees https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-12-01/pdf/2016-28198.pdf Federal Communications Commission 161 In this Report and Order, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) extends its streamlined foreign ownership rules and procedures that apply to common carrier and certain aeronautical licensees under Section 310(b)(4) of the Communications...
