(b) If a cable operator willfully fails to comply with the terms of any franchising authority's order, decision, or request for information, as required by §76.939, the Commission may, in addition to other remedies, impose a forfeiture pursuant to section 503(b) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 503(b).
