and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the
following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) 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 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 November 6, 2006. 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: You may submit all your Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
comments by e-mail or U.S. postal mail. To submit your comments by e-

of its Cable Operations and Licensing System (COALS) to Allow for
Electronic Filing of Licensing Applications, Forms, Registrations and
Notifications in the Multichannel Video and Cable Television Service
and the Cable Television Relay Service, FCC 03-55. This R&O provided
for electronic filing and standardized information collections. Under
47 CFR 76.1610, cable operators must notify the Commission of changes
in ownership information or operating status within 30 days of such
change using FCC Form 324. FCC Form 324 will cover a variety of changes
related to cable operators, replacing the requirement of a letter
containing approximately the same information. Every Form 324 filing
will require biographical information about the operator and system--
the additional information required depending largely upon the nature
of the change.
