| Include any other comments or information you want the Commission to consider in evaluating your compliance with the Children's Television Act (or use this space for supplemental explanations). This may include information on any other noncore educational and informational programming that you aired this quarter or plan to air during the next quarter, or any existing or proposed non-broadcast efforts that will enhance the educational and informational value of such programming to children. See 47 C.F.R. Section 73.671, NOTES 2 and 3. | Due to a technical error by Bounce TV, the E/I series that aired on Bounce TV from September 10, 2016 to October 15, 2016 were done so without an E/I symbol appearing within the programs. As a result of an unrelated error by a third party service provider, Culture Click also aired on 11/5/16 without an E/I symbol. In total, 12.5 hours of E/I programming did not include an E/I symbol. Bounce TV has resolved the issues causing the omission. Except for the program on November 5, all regularly scheduled Bounce TV E/I programming has included the E/I symbol as of October 22, 2016. Bounce TV also has established new processes to ensure that the issues do not recur. To address any potential concerns about compliance with FCC requirements for E/I programming, Bounce TV rebroadcast the 12.5 hours of E/I programming that originally aired without an E/I symbol in addition to its regularly scheduled E/I programming. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | "Animal Atlas" is an entirely appropriate title for this engaging and informative series. Just as browsing through a good atlas makes information about terrain and natural boundaries accessible and appealing, this program brings information about the natural world of animals to viewers in a non-didactic, entertaining way. Its approach in no way diminishes the learning that takes place when observations lead to conclusions - and young minds will draw many conclusions about the natural world shown in this series. These conclusions are consistent with nationally published curriculum goals in the natural sciences. They include concepts such as the functions of animals in an ecosystem (predator/prey relationships, etc.), the elements of animal classification, and the general emphasis on life science. |
