                             ORDER

   Adopted:  June 13, 1997              Released:  June 13, 1997

By the Chief, Cable Services Bureau:

     1.   By this Order, we grant, in part, a motion ("Motion") filed by Time Warner
Entertainment Company, L.P. ("Time Warner"),requesting an extension of time for filing reply
comments in the above-captioned matter.  The deadline for reply comments is extended from June
16, 1997 until June 23, 1997.

     2.   The Commission released a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in this docket seeking
comments on proposals to implement Section 629 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended,
47 U.S.C. 549, concerning the commercial availability of navigation devices.  Pursuant to
applicable procedures set forth in  1.415 and 1.419 of the Commission's Rules, interested parties
were to file comments on or before May 16, 1997, and reply comments on or before June 16, 1997.

     3.   On May 27, 1997, Time Warner filed a motion for extension of time to file reply
comments. Time Warner asserts that such an extension is warranted for two reasons. First, it claims
that because the Commission's subcontractor responsible for processing comments, has been behind
schedule in compiling a docket listing and making the comments available to the public, it and other
interested parties have been unable to timely obtain some of the comments making it difficult to
respond in a timely manner.  Second, Time Warner claims that this docket is highly technical and
presents difficult policy and business issues.  Time Warner states that it is hopeful that during this
extended reply comment period discussions between various interested parties may lead to a
consensus on various matters and thereby narrow the issues for resolution by the Commission.  Time
Warner requests an additional 45 days to respond to the comments.

     4.   We find that good cause exists to extend the reply comment period for one week to
make up for that period of time that the comments were not available to the public.  While we do not
discourage the parties from attempting to meet to attempt to narrow the issues in this proceeding,
we are mindful to avoid undue delay in this proceeding.  Therefore, we believe that a one week
extension to the reply period is reasonable here.

     5.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, that the Motion for Extension of Time ISGRANTED, to the extent noted herein, and that reply comments in this matter shall be filed no later
than June 23, 1997.

     6.   This action is taken pursuant to delegated authority under Section 0.321 of the
Commission's rules.
