SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060-0918.
Title: CORES Update/Change Form.
Form Number: FCC 161.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or households; Businesses or other for-
profit entities; Not-for-profit institutions; and State, Local, or
Tribal Governments.
Number of Respondents: 57,600; 57,600 responses.
Estimated Time Per Response: 10 minutes (0.167 hours).
Frequency of Response: One time reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
Total Annual Burden: 9,792 hours.
Total Annual Costs: None.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Not required.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The FCC has a system of
records, FCC/OMD-9, ``Commission Registration System (CORES),'' to
cover the collection, purpose(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal of
the personally identifiable information (PII) that individual
respondents may submit on FCC Form 161. The FCC will redact any PII
submitted on this form before it makes FCC Form 161 available for
public inspection. FCC Form 161 includes a privacy statement to inform
applicants (respondents) of the Commission's need to obtain the
information and the protections that the FCC has in place to protect
the PII.
Need and Uses: After respondents have registered in the FCC's
Commission Registration System (CORES) and have been issued a FCC
Registration Number (FRN), they may use FCC Form 161 to update and/or
change their contact information, including name, address, telephone
number, e-mail address, fax number, contact representative, contact
representative's address, telephone number, e-mail address, and/or fax
number. Respondents may also update their registration information in
CORES on-line at http://www.fcc.gov/frnreg. The Commission uses this
information to collect or report on any delinquent debt arising from
the respondent's business dealings with the FCC, including both
``feeable'' and ``nonfeeable'' services; and to ensure that registrants
(respondents) receive any refunds due. Use of the CORES System is also
a means of ensuring that the Commission operates in compliance with the
Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996.
