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 (PRA) of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501--3520. Comments are

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; (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 currently valid OMB control number.
DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before June 1, 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

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Nicholas A. Fraser, Office of
Management and Budget, via fax at 202-395-5167 or via the Internet at

Aircraft, Amateur, Restricted and Commercial Operator, and General
Mobile Radio Services.
Form Number: FCC Form 605.
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 or tribal
government.

responses.

requirements, recordkeeping requirement and third party disclosure
requirement.
Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
Total Annual Burden: 57,200 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $2,676,700.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Yes. Records may include information
about individuals or households, e.g., personally-identifiable
information (PII), and the use(s) and disclosure of this information is
governed by the requirements of a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/
WTB-1, ``Wireless Services Licensing Records.'' There are no additional
impacts under the Privacy Act.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: To protect the privacy of its
applicants, the FCC will redact the telephone number(s) of the
applicants and the birth date of the Commercial Radio Operator
applicants.
Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this collection to the
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) during this comment period as an
extension (no change in the reporting, recordkeeping and/or third party
disclosure requirements).
The Commission is amending the FCC Form 605 Schedule D to rearrange
the layout of Question 2 for Vanity Call Sign Change, to further
clarify the filing instructions, and to define the term ``in-law''. The
Commission is requesting an adjustment reduction in the number of
respondents/responses from 175,000 to 130,000. There is an increase in
the annual cost to the respondent due to an increase in the average
filing fee required to accompany applications. The total annual cost
increased by $138,000.
Federal Communications Commission.

Federal Register Liaison, Office of the Secretary, Office of Managing
Director.
