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 of 1995, Public Law 104-13. An agency 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 valid control 
number. 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; and (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.

DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be 
submitted on or before November 19, 2004. If you anticipate that you 
will be submitting comments, but find it difficult to do so within the 
period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the contact 
listed below as soon as possible.

    Needs and Uses: On June 30, 2004, the Commission released a Notice

proposed mandatory electronic filing of the International Section 2134 
authorizations, including a new ``International Section 214 
Authorization for Assignment or Transfer of Control'' form. This is in 
response to high public demand for electronic forms. Although this 
proceeding is still in progress, we propose to make the Section 214 
assignments and transfers form available to the public for electronic 
filing on a voluntary basis. Applicants would have the option, at this 
time, to complete a paper application or file the form with the 
Commission electronically in the International Bureau Filing System 
(IBFS).

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
