disclosure requirement; On occasion 

reporting requirement. 

Total Annual Burden: 249,043 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $34,623. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this collection is contained 

in sections 4(i), 317 and 507 of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

The FCC is preparing a system of 

records, FCC/MB–2, ‘‘Broadcast Station 

Public Inspection Files,’’ to cover the 

personally identifiable information (PII) 

that may be included in the broadcast 

station public inspection files. 

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. 

Privacy Impact Assessment(s): The 

FCC is preparing a PIA. 

Needs and Uses: The information 

collection requirements that are 

approved under this collection are as 

follows: 

47 CFR 73.1212 requires a broadcast 

station to identify at the time of 

broadcast the sponsor of any matter for 

which consideration is provided. For 

advertising commercial products or 

services, generally the mention of the 

name of the product or service 

constitutes sponsorship identification. 

In the case of television political 

advertisements concerning candidates 

for public office, the sponsor shall be 

identified with letters equal to or greater 

than four (4) percent of the vertical 

height of the television screen that airs 

for no less than four (4) seconds. In 

addition, when an entity rather than an 

individual sponsors the broadcast of 

matter that is of a political or 

controversial nature, licensee is 

required to retain a list of the executive 

officers, or board of directors, or 

executive committee, etc., of the 

organization paying for such matter. 

Sponsorship announcements are waived 

with respect to the broadcast of ‘‘want 

ads’’ sponsored by an individual but the 

licensee shall maintain a list showing 

the name, address and telephone 

number of each such advertiser. These 

lists shall be made available for public 

inspection. 

47 CFR 73.1212(e) states that, when 

an entity rather than an individual 

sponsors the broadcast of matter that is 

of a political or controversial nature, the 

licensee is required to retain a list of the 

executive officers, or board of directors, 

or executive committee, etc., of the 

organization paying for such matter in 

its public file. Pursuant to the changes 

contained in 47 CFR 73.1212(e) and 47 

CFR 73.3526(e)(19), this list, which 

could contain personally identifiable 

information, would be located in a 

public inspection file to be located on 

the Commission’s website instead of 

being maintained in the public file at 

the station. Burden estimates for this 

change are included in OMB Control 

Number 3060–0214. 

47 CFR 76.1615 states that, when a 

cable operator engaged in origination 

cablecasting presents any matter for 

which money, service or other valuable 

consideration is provided to such cable 

television system operator, the cable 

television system operator, at the time of 

the telecast, shall identify the sponsor. 

Under this rule section, when 

advertising commercial products or 

services, an announcement stating the 

sponsor’s corporate or trade name, or 

the name of the sponsor’s product is 

sufficient when it is clear that the 

mention of the name of the product 

constitutes a sponsorship identification. 

In the case of television political 

advertisements concerning candidates 

for public office, the sponsor shall be 

identified with letters equal to or greater 

than four (4) percent of the vertical 

height of the television screen that airs 

for no less than four (4) seconds. 

47 CFR 76.1715 state that, with 

respect to sponsorship announcements 

that are waived when the broadcast/ 

origination cablecast of ‘‘want ads’’ 

sponsored by an individual, the 

licensee/operator shall maintain a list 

showing the name, address and 

telephone number of each such 

advertiser. These lists shall be made 

available for public inspection.

Commission has received OMB 

approval for most of the information 

collections required by these orders. 

Through several orders, the 

Commission has recently changed or 

modified reporting obligations for highcost support. 

In September 2019, the Commission 

adopted the Puerto Rico/U.S. Virgin 

Islands Stage 2 Order, which allocated 

nearly a billion additional dollars to 

United States territories that had 

suffered extensive infrastructure damage 

due to Hurricanes Irma and Maria. The 

Uniendo a Puerto Rico Fund and the 

Connect USVI Fund, et al., WC Docket 

No. 18–143, et al., Report and Order and 

Order on Reconsideration, 34 FCC Rcd 

9109 (2019) (Puerto Rico and USVI 

Stage 2 Order). The Commission 

adopted similar accountability measures 

for recipients of this support as required 

of other high-cost support recipients to 

ensure that providers receive support 

‘‘only for the provision, maintenance, 

and upgrading of facilities and services 

for which the support is intended.’’ 

Puerto Rico and USVI Stage 2 Order, 34 

FCC Rcd at 9149, para. 72. 

In the 2019 Supply Chain Order, the 

Commission adopted a rule prohibiting 

the use of USF support to purchase or 

obtain any equipment or services 

produced or provided by a covered 

company posing a national security 

threat to the integrity of 

communications networks or the 

communications supply chain. 

Protecting Against National Security 

Threats to the Communications Supply 

Chain Through FCC Programs, WC 

Docket No. 18–89, Report and Order, 

Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, 

and Order, 34 FCC Rcd 11423, 11433, 

para. 26. See also 47 CFR 54.9. In June 

2020, the Public Safety and Homeland 

Security Bureau issued final 

designations of Huawei Technologies 

Company (Huawei) and ZTE Corp. 

(ZTE) as covered companies for the 

purposes of this rule. Protecting Against

Against National Security Threats to the 

Communications Supply Chain Through 

FCC Programs—ZTE Designation, WC 

Docket No. 19–352, Order, 35 FCC Rcd 

6633 (PSHSB June 30, 2020) (ZTE 

Designation Order). Accordingly, USF 

recipients may not use USF funds to 

purchase, obtain, maintain, improve, 

modify, manage, or otherwise support 

Huawei or ZTE equipment or services in 

any way, including upgrades to existing 

Huawei or ZTE equipment and services. 

Huawei Designation Order, 35 FCC Rcd 

at 6608, para. 10; ZTE Designation 

Order, 35 FCC Rcd at 6637, para. 10. 

Moreover, USF recipients must certify 

that they are in compliance with this 

rule. 2019 Supply Chain Order, 34 FCC 

Rcd at 11454, para. 79; see also 47 CFR 

54.9. 

In the CAF Phase II Auction Order, in 

addition to rules requiring Connect 

America Phase II auction support 

recipients to report regarding support 

used for capital expenditures, certify 

regarding available funds, and certify 

that the Phase II-funded network meets 

performance requirements, the 

Commission also adopted rules 

requiring that Phase II auction support 

recipients must report information on 

served community anchor institutions 

and certify regarding bidding on FCC 

Form 470 postings for eligible schools 

and libraries in census blocks where the 

carrier receives auction support.

Docket No. 10–90, et al., Report and 

Order and Further Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking, 31 FCC Rcd 5949 (2016) 

(CAF Phase II Auction Order). 

Recipients of Uniendo a Puerto Rico 

Fund and Connect USVI Fund Stage 2 

support must also observe these 


KHAMMOND on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
85638 Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 249 / Tuesday, December 29, 2020 / Notices 

requirements in addition to the general 

requirements for high-cost support 

recipients and requirements specific to 

the Uniendo a Puerto Rico Fund and 

Connect USVI Fund programs. See 

Puerto Rico and USVI Stage 2 Order, 34 

FCC Rcd at 9150, para. 74. 

We therefore propose to revise this 

information collection, as well as Form 

481 and its accompanying instructions, 

to reflect these new and revised 

requirements. We also eliminate one 

requirement that is associated with 

obligations no longer in effect for certain 

carriers. Finally, we propose to increase 

the burdens associated with existing 

reporting requirements to account for 

additional carriers that will be subject to 

those requirements.
