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. Please note that leading up to October 6, KFVS was in the practice of consolidating core E/I programming for our multicast channels by airing 6 hours per week of E/I programming on 12.2 (The Heartland's CW), satisfying the 3 hour requirement for 12.3 (Weather Channel). MVPD carriage for 12.2 is higher than MVPD carriage for 12.3. GRIT programming replaced the Weather Channel on 12.3 on Monday, October 6, 2014. On Monday, October 13, sustaining severe weather advisories of tornado warnings from 12:49-4:30PM, caused the pre-emption of Animal Atlas and Animal Rescue on 12.2 "The Heartland's CW". Because station KFVS ceased analog operations and converted to digital-only operations prior to the start of the reporting period, Questions 7(b) and 7(c) are no longer applicable.
