(202)418-7365 (TTY). Summary of the Order 1. On March 24, 2003, the Association for Maximum Service Television, Inc.
(MSTV)submitted a motion to the Commission to extend the comment and reply comment deadlines in the above captioned proceeding by 10 days, from April 7, 2003, and May 6, 2003, to April 17, 2003, and May 16, 2003, respectively. MSTV states that additional time is required to permit review and discussion of its comments by its board of directors before they can be approved and filed with the Commission. 2. The Commission does not routinely grant extensions of time in rule making proceedings. However, we find MSTV's circumstances compelling and we believe that providing more time will enable MSTV to submit information that will be beneficial to the record in this proceeding. In addition, such a brief extension will not cause undue delay. Therefore, we agree to extend the comment and reply comment deadlines by 10 days. 3. The deadline for filing comments in the above captioned proceeding is extended to April 17, 2003, and that the deadline for filing reply comments in the above captioned proceeding is extended to May 16, 2003. 4. This action is taken pursuant to the authority found in section 4(i) and 303 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i) and 303; and pursuant to §§ 0.31, 0.241 and 1.46 of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR 0.31, 0.241 and 1.46.
