Description
The digital television transition and public safety act of 2005 (the act), signed by president bush on february 8, 2006, directs the federal communications commission (FCC) to require full-power television stations to cease analog broadcasting after february 17, 2009. The returned spectrum is to be auctioned and the receipts from that auction will be deposited in a new digital television transition and public safety fund (the fund). Recognizing that consumers may wish to continue receiving broadcast television programming over the air using analog-only televisions not connected to cable or satellite service, the law directs ntia to create the digital-to-analog converter box coupon program (the coupon program). Specifically, section 3005 of the act directs ntia to implement and administer a program through which eligible U.S. Households may obtain up to two coupons of $40 each to be applied towards the purchase of digital-to-analog converter boxes. To implement the coupon program, the act authorizes ntia to use up to $990 million from the fund for the program including up to $100 million for program administration. A contingent level of $510 million in additional funds is authorized upon a 60-day notice to the congress. Therefore, 33.5 million coupons could be distributed to consumers through the program at the full funding level. The contractor will provide services and coupon distribution to meet these objectives, and coordinate requirements with retailers.
