Budget (OMB) in order to obtain the full three year clearance. Section
15.240 requires each grantee of certification for Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID) equipment to register the location of the
equipment/devices it markets with the Commission. The information that
the grantee must supply to the Commission when registering the devices
shall include the name, address and other pertinent contact information
of users, the geographic coordinates of the operating location, and the
FCC identification number(s) of the equipment. The improved RFID
equipment could benefit commercial shippers and have significant
homeland security benefits by enabling the entire contents of shipping
containers to be easily and immediately identified, and by allowing a
determination of whether tampering with their contents has occurred
during shipping.
