PETITION FOR WAIVER OF 47 C.F.R. § 76.1204(a)(1)

I. Introduction and Summary

Great Plains Cable Television, Inc. ("Great Plains") is a small cable

company providing cable services to approximately 10,000 subscribers in rural

Nebraska. Pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 549(c), and 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.3, 76.7 and

76.1207, Great Plains respectfully requests that the Commission grant a limited

waiver of 47 C.F.R. § 76.1204(a)(1) for the following set-top boxes:

• Motorola DCT-1000 series • Motorola DCT-2000 series • Motorola DSR-410

(collectively, "Low-Cost Set-Top Boxes").Great Plains requests that the waiVer

remain effective until the earlier of (i) the commercial availability of non-integrated I set-top boxes compatible with one-way cable plant and Comcast's HITS seryice; 1

or (ii) Great Plains' upgrade of its systems to two-way cable plant. Great Plains

can and will comply with 47 C.F.R. § 76.1204(a)(1) for the almost 50% of its subscribers who are currently served by two-way cable plant. No. of Copies rec'duO-,-__ UstABCDE

1 Currently, there are DQ such set-top boxes commercially available.

1 As required by the Commission's Second Report and Order, ~ GreatPlains attaches full specifications for the Low-Cost Set-Top Boxes as Exhibit 1. , Granting Great Plains' requested waivers is critical: Compliance wit~ 47

C.F.R. § 76.104(a)(1) is technically impossible for Great Plains unless the company rebuilds its current headends and one-way cable plant. This is because no manufacturer produces, or has announced production of, non- integrated set-top boxes compatible with one-way cable plant. The compa'ny estimates that if it were to rebuild its cable plant so that it could comply with! the

Commission's integration ban, the rebuild would cost between $3 million and $4 million. With only about 5,600 subscribers served by these one-way systems, it is financially impossible for Great Plains to undertake such a rebuild.

Accordingly, absent a grant of the requested waivers. Great Plains will be forced to stop deploying digital services to new or upgrading subscribers on its one-way cable systems.

Conversely, grant of the requested waivers will benefit consumers and

I assist in the development of a new multichannel video programming service -

Great Plains's digital cable television services.3 At the same time, granting Great

Plains's requested waivers will have no negative effect on the development of a competitive market for navigation devices.

• Relief requested • Background information on Great Plains, its cable systems, and its use of the Low-Cost Set-TOp Boxes . • Authority for the requested waiver • Conclusion

II. Relief Requested

Waivers. Great Plains requests that the Commission grant a limited

waiver of 47 C.F.R. § 76. 1204(a)(1) for the Low-Cost Set-Top Boxes until t~e

earlier of (i) the commercial availability of non-integrated set-top boxes

compatible with one-way cable plant and Comcast's HITS service; or (ii) Gr~at

Plains' upgrade of its systems to two-way cable plant.

III. About Great Plains

Great Plains. Great Plains is a small cable operator headquartered :in

Blair, Nebraska. The company has been providing cable services to rural

Nebraska subscribers since 1981. The company currently serves approxirn.ately

10,000 rural subscribers.

Great Plains' cable systems and its use of the low-Cost Set-Top

Boxes. Approximately 5,600 of Great Plains' subscribers are served by old~r- technology, one-way cable systems that were constructed long before the

Commission adopted its final orders on separable security. Currently, no manufacturer offers, or has announced, set-top boxes compatible with thes~ one- way systems.

3 Despite the fact that these are one-way systems, Great Plains is able to

offer digital services to its subscribers via HITS.4 For its five systems serving

Arnold (pop. 624), Bancroft, Callaway, Chapman, Oconto, Stapleton, Sutherland

.and Wolbach, Nebraska, Great Plains uses the HITS2 HOME system,5 which can

be delivered to subscribers through the Motorola DSR-410 set-top box only. This

set-top box is no longer manufactured.6 Great Plains therefore must use

refurbished boxes to deploy this service to its subscribers. The refurbished'

boxes cost Great Plains approximately $80 each. Great Plains provides the'se

boxes free with its digital services.

On its other one-way cable systems, Great Plains provides digital services

using HITS Classic. Great Plains uses the Motorola DCT-1000 series and DCT-

2000 series set-top boxes to deliver the HITS Classic services. These Low~Cost

Set-Top Boxes are compatible with a one-way cable system. The DCT-1000 series boxes cost Great Plains around $50 per box, and DCT-2000 series boxes , cost Great Plains approximately $100 per box. Great Plains provides these, boxes for free with its digital services.

Because there are currently no one~way, non-integrated digital set-top boxes commercially available, GreatPlains has only one option if not granted the requested waivers - to stop deploying digital services to upgrading and new

4 digital subscribers. This is because converting its systems to two-way plant

would require Great Plains to rebuild these systems' headends. This would cost

approximately $3 million - $4 million and take at least 2 - 3 years. For syst~ms

serving a total of only 5,600 subscribers, these costs and administrative burdens

are impossible.

IV. Justification for Requested Waivers

The Commission has ample authority to grant Great Plains's requested

waivers Section 76.1204(a)(1) of the Commission's rules (A) for good caus~

under the general waiver provisions of the Commission's rUles;? (8) under the

set-top box waiver provisions in 47 U.S.C. § 549(c) and Section 76.1207 of'the

Commission's rules; and (C) under Commission precedent.

A. Good cause. The Commission may grant a petition for waiver of

any provision of Part 76 of its rules for good cause shown.8 Good cause exists

I for the requested waivers in this case: (1) financial hardship; and (2) the public , interest in deployment of digital services to rural consumers.

(1) Financial hardship. To convert Great Plains's cable systems to two-way facilities will cost Great Plains approximately $3 million - $4 million. Last year, Great Plains' operated at a seven-figure loss of

7 See 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.3 and 76.7(a)(1).

B/d.

5 ($1,836,099).9 The company simply cannot afford to replace its small, one-way

cable systems.

For this reason, Commission precedent supports a grant of the requested I waivers on the basis of Great Plains' financial hardship alone. The Commission

recently granted Charter a waiver of the deadline in Section 76.1204(a)(1), :

recognizing the financial difficulty involved in serving a rural customer base;1o

Great Plains' customer base is far more rural than Charter's, 11 and its financial

situation is similarly difficult. Like Charter, Great Plains is burdened with 12 significant debt. Moreover, the Commission has previously granted waiv~rs of

its regulations to Great Plains based on the company's continuing financial·

hardship.13

9 Net loss after taxes was ($946,372). Great Plains' Income Statement for 2006 is attached under seal as Exhibit 3, along with a Request for Confidentiality Pursuan~ to 47 CFR § 0.459.

11 Ofthe twenty-eight communities served by the systems at issue, the largest is Neligh (pop.1 ,591). Seventy-five percent of the communities have a population under 1,000.

12 Great Plains is servicing nearly $4.5 million in loans.

13 See In the Matter ofGreat Plains Cable Television, Inc., Request for Waiver ofSection 11.11(a) ofthe Commission's Rules, Order, 19 FCC Red. 305 (2004) and In the Matter ofGreat Plains Cable Television, Inc., Request for Waiver ofSection 11.11(a) ofthe Commission's Rules, Order, 17 FCC Red. 19043 (2002). The Commission has consistently granted waivers of its regUlations based on financial hardship. See In the Matter ofCarson Communications, L.L. C. Request for Waiver ofSection 11.11(a) ofthe Commission's Rules, Order, 17 FCC Red. 10,431 (2002); In the Matter of WMW Cable Television Co. Request for Waiver ofSection 11.11(a) ofthe Commission's Rules, Order, 17 FCC Red. 10,444 (2002); In the Matter ofCunningham Communications, Inc. Request for Waiver ofSection 11. 11(a) ofthe Commission's Rules, Order, 17 FCC Red. 10,435 (2002); and In the Matter ofSouris River Television, Inc. Request for Waiver of Section 11.11(a) ofthe Commission's Rules, Order, 17 FCC Red. 10,438 (2002).

6 , (2) Public interest in deployment of digital services to rural

markets. The public interest in deployment of digital services to rural markets

also provides good cause for the requested waivers. If not granted the requested , waivers, Great Plains will be forced to stop deployment of its digital services to

new subscribers and to subscribers who want to upgrade from analog to digital

services. In other words, enforcement of the Commission's integration ban:in

this case will necessarily result in a widening of the digital divide in rural

Nebraska - a highly undesirable outcome.

In short, good cause exists for the requested waivers of 47 C.F.R. § :

76.1024(a)(1). The waivers will allow Great Plains to continue to provide competitive, high-quality, digital services to rural subscribers, which will indisputably benefit the public interest.

At the same time, denial of the requested waivers will provide no corresponding consumer benefits. The articulated purpose behind the integration ban is to encourage competitive entry into the market for set-top: navigation devices. The very limited market for one-way set-top boxes compatible with HITS is likely too small to attract any competitive entry.

Accordingly, granting the requested waivers to Great Plains will have no negative , effect on the competitive market for set-top navigation devices.

B. 47 U.S.C. § 549(c) and 47 C.F.R. § 76.1207. In addition to th¢ general waiver provisions in the Commission's rules, 47 U.S.C. § 549(c) expressly authorizes the Commission to grant waivers of the integration ban' in

Section 76.1204(a)(1):

7 The Commission shall waive a regulation adopted under subsection '(a) of this section for a limited time upon an appropriate showing by [an : MVPD]...that such waiver is necessary to assist the development or. introduction of a new or improved multichannel video programming qr other service offered over multichannel video programming systems, technology, or products.

Similarly, Section 76.1207 of the Commission's rules provides:

The Commission "may waive a regulation adopted under this subpart for a limited time, upon an appropriate showing by [an MVPD]...that such a waiver is necessary to assist the development . or introduction of a new or improved multichannel video programming or other service offered over multichannel video programming systems, technology, or products. 14

As explained above, the requested waiver of the integration ban is necessa.ry to

assist not only the development,15 but the continued viability of Great Plains'

digital services. For this reason, a waiver is warranted under 47 U.S.C. § 549(c)

and 47 C.F.R. § 76.1207.

C. Commission precedent. The Commission's Bel/South Order16 proVides

ample authority for the requested waivers of Sections 76.640 and 76.1204(a)(1) of the Commission's rules. In the Bel/South Order, BellSouth petitioned the

Commission for a permanent waiver of Section 76.640 for its digital cable systems, which it had constructed prior to the adoption of Section 76.640. The cable systems served about 40,000 subscribers. To meet the requirements of

Section 76.640, BellSouth would have had to replace two headends and

14 47 C.F.R. § 76.1207.

15 Great Plains current digital penetration rate is a low 29%, accordingly, there is significant room for development of digital services in its rural markets. 16 In the Matter of: Bel/South Interactive Media Services, LLC and Bel/South Entertainment, LLC, Petition for Permanent Relief, Memorandum Opinion and Order, 19 FCC Red. 15607 (2004) ("Bel/South Order').

8 purchase and deploy 65,000 new set-top boxes.17 The Commission found brant

of a waiver was in the public interest:

Grant of a waiver will allow BellSouth to continue to deliver digital services to its subscribers and rem~in a viable competitor in the MVPD marketplace. Because BellSouth's affected systems serve a : combined total of only 40,000 subscribers we believe that very few subscribers will be affected by the waiver. 18

The Bel/South Order compels the grant of Great Plains's requested

waivers. As was the case with BellSouth, Great Plains began deploying its HITS

services in 1999, prior to the Commission issuing a final order defining the

requirements for separable security.

As was the case with BellSouth, compliance with Section 76.1204(a)(1) would require Great Plains to rebuild its headends. As was the case with :

BellSouth, such a rebuild would be economically infeasible (in Great Plains': case, it would actually be impossible), and would remove from a provider of digital services from rural Nebraska markets.

And, as was the case with BellSouth, the requested waiver will affect very few subscribers. In fact, the justification for Great Plains's waiver is even more compelling because Great Plains' one-way systems serve only about 5,600: subscribers, as opposed to the 40,000 subscribers served by BellSouth.

Moreover, implicit in the Commission's grant of a waiver to BellSouth, was a prospective waiver of Section 76.1204(a)(1) for BellSouth's set-top boxes,

17 Bel/South Order at 'IJ 4.

18 Bel/South Order at 'IJ 8.

9 which the Commission ordered BellSouth to continue to supply to subscrib~rs 19 even though the boxes are not compatible with the Commission's separable

security requirements.2o The BellSouth Order provides ample authority forithe , requested limited waivers of Section 76.1204(a)(1) for the Low-Cost Set-Top

Boxes. In addition, more recent Commission precedent also supports the grant of waivers for the DCT-1000 and DCT-2000 series boxes. 21 v. Conclusion

Great Plains is a viable MVPD competitor providing advanced digital i services to its rural subscribers. Great Plains can and will comply with 47 C;F.R.

§ 76.1204(a)(1) for the almost 50% of its subscribers who are currently served by two-way cable plant. But without the requested waivers, Great Plains will qe required to stop deploying digital services to new and upgrading digital subscribers served by Great Plains one-way cable plant. Eliminating a digital competitor from Great Plains's rural markets will do nothing to increase the commercial availability of navigation devices, but will eliminate a source of rVlVPD choice in Great Plains rural communities. Conversely, granting Great Plains' requested waivers will permit consumers to enjoy the digital services of a lobally-
