OMB Control Number: 3060–0056. 

Title: Part 68, Connection of Terminal 

Equipment to the Telephone Network. 

Form No.: Not applicable. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 58,520.

interference to other subscribers. To 

ensure that consumers, providers of 

telecommunications, the Administrative 

Council, Telecommunications 

Certification Bodies (TCBs), and the 

Commission are able to trace products 

to the party responsible for placing 

terminal equipment on the market, it is 

essential to require manufacturers and 

suppliers to provide the information 

required by part 68.

OMB Control Number: 3060–1046. 

Title: Implementation of the Pay 

Telephone Reclassification and 

Compensation Provisions of the 

Telecommunications Act of 1996, CC 

Docket No. 96–128, Order on 

Reconsideration. 

Form No.: Not applicable. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 1,023

quarterly reporting requirements, 

recordkeeping requirement and third

Needs and Uses: Last year, on October 

3, 2003, the Commission issued a Report 

and Order (CC Docket 96–128/FCC 03–

235) that required ‘‘Completing 

Carriers’’ to compensate Payphone 

Service Providers (PSPs) for each and 

every completed call using a coinless 

access number. The Report and Order 

defined Completing Carriers as the last 

facilities-based long distance carrier in a 

call path either an interexchange carrier 

or a switched-based reseller. On October 

22, 2004, the Commission released this 

Order on Reconsideration (FCC 04–251), 

which does not change this 

compensation framework, but rather 

refines and builds upon its approach. 

The Commission provides guidance on 

the types of contracts that the 

Commission would deem to be 

reasonable methods of compensating 

PSPs, extends the time period that 

carriers much retain certain payphone 

records, and clarifies the rules’

reporting, certification, and audit 

requirements.

Collection(s) Being Reviewed by the 

Federal Communications Commission 

October 27, 2004.

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 December 6, 

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.

ADDRESSES: Direct all comments 

regarding this Paperwork Reduction Act 

submission to Judith B. Herman, Federal 

Communications Commission, Room 1–

C804, 445 12th Street, SW., Washington, 

DC 20554 or via the Internet to JudithB.Herman@fcc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control No.: 3060–0508. 

Title: Rewrite of Part 22. 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Individuals or 

households and business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 44,127. 

Estimated Time Per Response: .084—

40 hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion, 

semi-annual, annual and quarterly 

reporting requirements and 

recordkeeping requirement. 

Total Annual Burden: 62,835 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $6,643,050. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Yes. 

Needs and Uses: On February 12, 

2004, the Commission released an Order 

on Reconsideration, in WT Docket No. 

01–108, FCC 04–22, in which it affirmed 

64572 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 214 / Friday, November 5, 2004 / Notices 

much of the conclusions made in the 

Report and Order. The Commission, 

however, reconsidered and adopted a 

proposal to permit existing cellular 

radiotelephone licensees to extend to 

adjacent unserved areas of less than fifty 

(50) square miles on a secondary basis 

without modifying their existing 

cellular geographic service area. Section 

1.929 of the rules provides that an 

application or amendment is classified 

as minor or major. A carrier seeking to 

extend into adjacent unserved areas 

must generally seek approval from the 

Commission by filing a major 

modification. Pursuant to the Order on 

Reconsideration, a carrier that seeks to 

extend in adjacent unserved areas on a 

secondary basis need only file a minor 

amendment. The cellular licensee must 

indicate on FCC Form 601, Main Form, 

Item 7 that it is filing a minor 

amendment; and submit Schedules D 

and F of the FCC Form 601. 

Additionally, the Commission 

eliminated information collection 

requirements in Sections 22.130 and 

22.323. Sections 1.949, 1.955, 1.957 and 

22.946(a) are now included in this 

information collection.

OMB Control No.: 3060–0626. 

Title: Regulatory Treatment of Mobile 

Services—Sections 90.168, 90.425 and 

90.483. 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 2,985. 

Estimated Time Per Response: 1–10 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion, 

annual and one-time reporting 

requirements, third party disclosure 

requirement, and recordkeeping 

requirement. 

Total Annual Burden: 13,515 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $1,328,000. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Needs and Uses: The Commission 

revised this information collection 

because changes that have occurred are 

due to the elimination of rule section 

requirements in Section 20.6(e)(3), 

which, as of January 1, 2003, were no 

longer effective. Further, Section 22.313 

has been eliminated from this 

information collection and incorporated 

into the part 22 collection (above, OMB 

Control Number 3060–0508). Section 

90.449 has been eliminated as 

duplicative of the requirements in 47 

CFR Section 1.89 of the Commission’s 

rules involving ‘‘Notices of Violation’’. 

Such notices are handled by the FCC’s 

Enforcement Bureau and are processed 

on a case-by-case basis. Therefore, it 

does not meet the criteria for PRA 

requirements.
