###### Federal Communications Commission

# 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 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 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.

*Type of Review:*                     Revision of a currently approved collection.                

*Respondents:*                     Individuals or households, business or other for-profit, not-for-profit institutions and state, local or tribal government.

*Estimated Time per Response:*.5 hours-1.75 hours.                

*Frequency of Response:*                     On occasion reporting requirement and recordkeeping requirement.                

*Obligation to Respond:*                     Mandatory. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. sections 4(i), 154(i), 303(r) and 309(j).                

*Total Annual Burden:*                     36,846 hours.                

*Total Annual Cost:*                     $335,497.                

*Privacy Act Impact Assessment:*                     Yes. Records many include information about individuals or households,                     *e.g.,*                     personally identifiable information or PII, and the use(s) and disclosure of this information are governed by the requirements of a system of records notice or “SORN”, FCC/WTB-1, “Wireless Services Licensing Records.” There are no additional impacts under the Privacy Act.                

*Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:*                     Respondents may request materials or information submitted to the Commission be withheld from public inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission's rules.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     The Commission will submit this expiring information collection (IC) to the OMB as a revision                           ( print page 2378)                        during this comment period to obtain the full three-year clearance from them. The Commission is reporting a 34,092 total annual hour decrease and a $2,775,798 annual cost decrease. This adjustment is due to a 30,304 fewer responses since this was last submitted to OMB in 2008. The revision for which the Commission is seeking OMB approval is due to minor changes to the wording of FCC Form 603 data elements, adding a question inquiring if filing is the lead application on the Main Form, and changing the wording in the instructions. The FCC uses the information in FCC Form 603 to determine whether the applicant is legally, technically, and financially qualified to obtain a license. Without such information, the Commission cannot determine whether to issue the licenses to the applicants that provide telecommunications services to the public, and therefore, to fulfill its statutory responsibilities in accordance with the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Information provided on this form will also be used to update the database and to provide for proper use of the frequency spectrum.                

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary.
