A federal court stayed the Federal Communications Commission's leased-access-rule changes until it can hear a cable-industry challenge, but that hasn't stopped small cable operators from continuing to hammer away at them at the commission. In a filing with the FCC, the American Cable Association said the changes, which include additional reporting requirements, violate the 1980 Paperwork Reduction Act. The FCC’s Office of Management and Budget is currently reviewing the rules to make sure they don't violate that act.
