FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
Notice of Public Information Collection(s) Being Reviewed by the
Federal Communications Commission
January 29, 2004.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden invites the general public
and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the
following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. An agency may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently
valid control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for
failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that does not display a valid control
number. Comments are requested concerning (a) whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of
the collection of information on the respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or other forms of information
technology.
DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before March 15, 2004. If you anticipate that you will
be submitting comments, but find it difficult to do so within the
period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the contact
listed below as soon as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all comments regarding this Paperwork Reduction Act
submission to Judith B. Herman, Federal Communications Commission, Room
1-C804, 445 12th Street, SW., DC 20554 or via the Internet to Judith-
B.Herman@fcc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information or copies
of the information collection(s), contact Judith B. Herman at 202-418-
0214 or via the Internet at Judith-B.Herman@fcc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control No.: 3060-0865.
Title: Wireless Telecommunications Bureau Universal Licensing
System Recordkeeping and Third Party Disclosure Requirements.
Form No: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or households, business or other for-
profit, not-for-profit institutions, and state, local and tribal
government.
Number of Respondents: 61,340.
Estimated Time Per Response: .166-4 hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement,
recordkeeping requirement and third party disclosure requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 83,939 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The purpose of this collection is to streamline the
set of rules which minimize filing requirements via the Universal
Licensing System (ULS); to eliminate redundant and unnecessary
submission requirements; and to assure ongoing collection of reliable
licensing and ownership data. The recordkeeping and third party
disclosure requirements, along with certifications which made via the
ULS FCC Form 601 are two ways the Commission reduced the filing burdens
in the industry. However, applicants must maintain records to document
compliance with the requirements for which they provide certification.
In some instances third party coordination's are required.
Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
