Policy Regarding Community Access Network:	The Community Access Network (CAN) is a regionally programmed channel seen on cable systems throughout the Portland/ Vancouver metropolitan area. (CAN is seen on channel 11 on Comcast-the channel may vary in other cable systems.) Programming on the CAN channel is subject to the local rules and regulations of each individual cable television franchise area where CAN programming appears. These rules and regulations apply to all programs regardless of where the program originates. Producers submitting programming for cablecast on CAN are thereby subject to the rules and regulations of all cable franchise areas carrying CAN programming. Access centers submitting programming on the CAN channel will make the name, address and phone number of producers available upon request to any other participation access center. The access center requesting the information is then free to disseminate that information in accordance with their particular policies. Since some centers provide this information to the public upon request, a producer’s name, address and telephone number may be made available to any member of the public at any time.
	I do not wish my program to appear on the Community Access Network.
