SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of 

its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork burdens, as required by the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the FCC invited 

the general public and other Federal 

Agencies to take this opportunity to 

comment on the following information 

collection. 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 estimates; (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. 

Pursuant to the Small Business 

Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public 

Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4), 

the FCC seeks specific comment on how 

it might ‘‘further reduce the information 

collection burden for small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 

employees.’’ 

OMB Control Number: 3060–1158. 

Title: Transparency Rule Disclosures, 

Restoring internet Freedom, Report and 

Order, WC Docket No. 17–108. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently-approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, Not-for-profit entities; 

State, local, or Tribal governments. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 2,165 respondents; 2,165 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 26 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement; third party 

disclosure requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Mandatory. 

Statutory authority for these collections 

is contained in Section 257 of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended, 47 U.S.C. Section 257. 

Total Annual Burden: 56,290 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $510,000. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

There is no need for confidentiality with 

this information collection. 

Needs and Uses: The Restoring 

Internet Freedom Report and Order 

(Restoring Internet Freedom Order) 

revised the information collection 

requirements applicable to internet 

service providers (ISPs). The Open 

Internet Order, adopted in 2010, 

required ISPs to disclose certain 

network management processes, 

performance characteristics, and other 

attributes of broadband internet access 

service. These disclosure requirements 

were significantly increased by the Title 

II Order, adopted in 2015. The Restoring 

Internet Freedom Order eliminated the 

additional collection imposed by the 

Title II Order, and added a few discrete 

elements to the Open Internet Order’s 

information collection requirements. 

The Restoring Internet Freedom Order 

requires an ISP to publicly disclose 

network management practices, 

performance, and commercial terms of 

its broadband internet access service 

sufficient to enable consumers to make 

informed choices regarding the 

purchase and use of such services, and 

entrepreneurs and other small 

businesses to develop, market, and 

maintain internet offerings. As part of 

these disclosures, the rule requires ISPs 

to disclose their congestion 

management, application-specific 

behavior, device attachment rules, and 

security practices, as well as any 

blocking, throttling, affiliated 

prioritization, or paid prioritization in 

which they engage. The rule also 

requires ISPs to disclose performance 

characteristics, including a service 

description and the impact of 

nonbroadband internet access services 

data services. Finally, the rule requires 

ISPs to disclose the price of the service, 

privacy policies, and redress options. 

The rule requires ISPs to make such 

disclosures available either via a 

publicly-available, easily accessible 

website or through transmittal to the 

Commission, which will make such 

disclosures available via a publiclyavailable, easily accessible website. The 

information collection will assist the 

Commission in its statutory obligation 

to report to Congress on market entry 

barriers in the telecommunications 

market. The Commission anticipates 

that the revised disclosures would 

empower consumers and businesses 

with information about their broadband 

internet access service, protecting the 

openness of the internet. Although this 

collection was bifurcated in 2016 with 

respect to fixed and mobile ISPs, the 

Commission seeks to have this 

collection encompass both fixed and 

mobile ISPs.

Needs and Uses: The authorization 

covered under this collection is subject 

to broadcasters continuing to deliver 

current-generation digital television 

(DTV) service, using the ATSC 1.0 

transmission standard, also called 

‘‘ATSC 1.0’’ or ‘‘1.0,’’ to their viewers. 

The requirement to continue to provide 

ATSC 1.0 service is called ‘‘local 

simulcasting.’’ The local simulcasting 

rules (47 CFR 73.3801(full-power TV), 

73.6029 (Class A TV), and 74.782 (lowpower TV)), contain the following 

information collection requirements 

which require OMB approval. 

License Application to FCC/FCC 

Form 2100 (Reporting Requirement; 47 

CFR 73.3801(f), 73.6029(f), and 

74.782(g)): A broadcaster must file an 

application (FCC Form 2100) with the 

Commission, and receive Commission 

approval, before: (i) Moving its ATSC 

1.0 signal to the facilities of a host 

station, moving that signal from the 

facilities of an existing host station to 

the facilities of a different host station, 

or discontinuing an ATSC 1.0 guest 

signal; (ii) commencing the airing of an 

ATSC 3.0 signal on the facilities of a 

host station (that has already converted 

to ATSC 3.0 operation), moving its 

ATSC 3.0 signal to the facilities of a 

different host station, or discontinuing 

an ATSC 3.0 guest signal; or (iii) 

converting its existing station to 

transmit an ATSC 3.0 signal or 

converting the station from ATSC 3.0 

back to ATSC 1.0 transmissions. As 

directed by the Commission, the Media 

Bureau will be amending FCC Form 

2100 and the relevant schedules 

(Schedules B, D & F) (See Schedule B— 

Full Power License to cover application 

(OMB control number 3060–0837); 

Schedule D—LPTV/Translator License 

to cover application (OMB control 

number 3060–0017); and Schedule F— 

Class A License to cover application 

(OMB control number 3060–0928)) as 

necessary to implement the Next Gen 

TV licensing process and collect the 

required information (detailed below). 

The form will be revised to establish the 

streamlined ‘‘one-step’’ licensing 

process for Next Gen TV applicants, 

including adding the above listed 

purposes (i–iii) to the form. FCC staff 

will use the license application to 

determine compliance with FCC rules 

and to determine whether the public 

interest would be served by grant of the 

application for a Next Gen TV station 

license. 

Next Gen TV Broadcaster On-Air 

Notices to Consumers (Third-Party 

Disclosure Requirement; 47 CFR 

73.3801(g), 73.6029(g), and 74.782(h)): 

Commercial and noncommercial 

educational (NCE) broadcast TV stations 

that relocate their ATSC 1.0 signals (e.g., 

moving to a host station’s facility, 

subsequently moving to a different host, 

or returning to its original facility) are 

required to air daily Public Service 

Announcements (PSAs) or crawls every 

day for 30 days prior to the date that the 

stations will terminate ATSC 1.0 

operations on their existing facilities. 

Stations that transition directly to ATSC 

3.0 will be required to air daily PSAs or 

crawls every day for 30 days prior to the 

date that the stations will terminate 

ATSC 1.0 operations. Broadcaster on-air 

notices to consumers will be used to 

inform consumers if stations they watch 

will be changing channels and 

encouraged to rescan their receivers for 

new channel assignments. 

Next Gen TV Broadcaster Written 

Notices to MVPDs (Third-Party 

Disclosure Requirement; 47 CFR 

73.3801(h), 73.6029(h), and 74.782(i)): 

Next Gen TV stations relocating their 

ATSC 1.0 signals (e.g., moving to a 

temporary host station’s facilities, 

subsequently moving to a different host, 

or returning to its original facility) must 

provide notice to MVPDs that: (i) No 

longer will be required to carry the 

station’s ATSC 1.0 signal due to the 

relocation; or (ii) carry and will 

continue to be obligated to carry the 

station’s ATSC 1.0 signal from the new 

location. Broadcaster notices to 

multichannel video programming 

distributors (MVPDs) will be used to 

notify MVPDs that carry a Next Gen TV 

broadcast station about channel changes 

and facility information. 

Local Simulcasting Agreements 

(Recordkeeping Requirement; 47 CFR 

73.3801(e), 73.6029(e), and 74.782(f)): 

Broadcasters must maintain a written 

copy of any local simulcasting 

agreement and provide it to the 

Commission upon request. FCC staff 

will review the local simulcasting 

agreement (when applicable) to 

determine compliance with FCC rules 

and to determine whether the public 

interest would be served by grant of the 

application for a Next Gen TV station 

license.

of this information collection and will 

submit this information collection after 

this 60-day comment period. 

The Commission’s Third Report and 

Order in PS Docket No. 07–114 adopted 

a rule providing that new CMRS 

network providers meeting the 

definition of covered CMRS providers in 

Section 9.10 and deploying new standalone networks must meet the handsetbased location accuracy standard in 

delivering emergency calls for Enhanced 

911 service. The rule requires that new 

stand-alone CMRS providers must 

satisfy the handset-based location 

accuracy standard at either a countybased or Public Safety Answering Point 

(PSAP)-based geographic level. 

Additionally, in accordance with the 

pre-existing requirements for CMRS 

providers using handset-based location 

technologies, new stand-alone CMRS 

providers are permitted to exclude up to 

15 percent of the counties or PSAP areas 

they serve due to heavy forestation that 

limits handset-based technology 

accuracy in those counties or areas but 

are required to file a an initial list of the 

specific counties or portions of counties 

where they are utilizing their respective 

exclusions. 

A. Updated Exclusion Reports. Under 

this information collection and pursuant 

to current rule section 9.10(h) new 

stand-alone CMRS providers and 

existing CMRS providers that have filed 

initial exclusion reports are required to 

file reports informing the Commission 

of any changes to their exclusion lists 

within thirty days of discovering such 

changes. The permitted exclusions 

properly but narrowly account for the 

known technical limitations of either 

the handset-based or network-based 

location accuracy technologies chosen 

by a CMRS provider, while ensuring 

that the public safety community and 

the public at large are sufficiently 

informed of these limitations. 

B. Confidence and Uncertainty Data.
