FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
Notice of Public Information Collection(s) Being Submitted for
Review and Approval to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB),
Comments Requested
December 21, 2010.
SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3501-3520), the Federal Communications Commission invites the general
public and other Federal agencies to comment on the following
information collection. 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
[[Page 82395]]
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information collected; (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; and (e) ways to further reduce the information collection
burden for small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB 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 OMB control number.
DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before January 31, 2011. If you anticipate that you
will be submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within
the period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the FCC
contact listed below as soon as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Nicholas A. Fraser, Office of
Management and Budget, via fax at 202-395-5167 or the Internet at
[email protected]; and to the Federal Communications
Commission's PRA mailbox (e-mail address: [email protected].). Include in the
e-mail the OMB control number of the collection as shown in the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section below, or if there is no OMB control
number, include the Title as shown in the SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
section. If you are unable to submit your comments by e-mail, contact
the person listed below to make alternate arrangements.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information, contact
Judith B. Herman at 202-418-0214 or via the Internet at [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060-0698.
Title: Sections 25.203(i) and 73.1030(a)(2), Radio Astronomy
Coordination Zone in Puerto Rico.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit
institutions, and State, local or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 200 respondents; 1,000 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 5-40 minutes (.0833 hours to .667
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and third
party disclosure requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47
U.S.C. sections 154(i), 303(f), 303(r), and 309(j)(13).
Total Annual Burden: 142 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for
confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this expiring
information collection (IC) to the OMB during this comment period. The
Commission is seeking OMB approval for a revision. The Commission is
reporting a 114 hour program change decrease to the total burden hour
estimate. The revision is because 47 CFR section 23.20 has been removed
from this information collection since the last time OMB approved this
information collection.
The Commission adopted and released a Report and Order, IB Docket
No. 05-216, FCC 10-7, which eliminated Part 23 rules because there were
no International Fixed Public Radiocommunications Services (IFPRS)
licenses in operation.
The information collected is used to facilitate coordination
between the Observatory and Commission-licensed services in the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Applicants for new or modified radio
communication facilities within the Coordination Zone are required to
submit technical information concerning the applicant's proposed
services to enable the Observatory to determine the potential for
interference with its operations. The Observatory will perform
interference evaluations at no cost to the applicants. If potential
interference problems are identified, applicants are required to make
reasonable attempts to resolve or mitigate such problems in order to
protect the Observatory.
Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
