the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)

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. 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; (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 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 3, 2011. If you anticipate that you will be 
submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within the

statutory authority for this information collection is found at 47 
U.S.C. 226, Telephone Operator Services, Public Law 101-435, 104 Stat. 
986, codified at 47 CFR 64.703(a) Consumer Information, 64.709

Phones.
    Total Annual Burden: 205,023 hours.

    Needs and Uses: Pursuant to 47 CFR 64.703(a), Operator Service 
Providers (OSPs) are required to disclose, audibly and distinctly to 
the consumer, at no charge and before connecting any interstate call, 
how to obtain rate quotations, including any applicable surcharges. 47 
CFR 64.710 imposes similar requirements on OSPs to inmates at 
correctional institutions. 47 CFR 64.709 codifies the requirements for 
OSPs to file informational tariffs with the Commission. These rules 
help to ensure that consumers receive information necessary to 
determine what the charges associated with an OSP-assisted call will 
be, thereby enhancing informed consumer choice in the operator services 
marketplace.
