FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

Notice of Public Information 

Collection(s) Being Reviewed by the 

Federal Communications Commission 

for Extension Under Delegated 

Authority, Comments Requested 

November 17, 2010 

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort 

to reduce paperwork burden and as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501– 

3520), the Federal Communications 

Commission invites the general public 

and other Federal agencies to comment 

on the following information 

collection(s). 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 

that does not display a valid OMB 

control number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control No.: 3060–0357. 

Title: Section 63.701, Request for 

Designation as a Recognized Private 

Operating Agency (RPOA). 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 10 

respondents; 10 responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 5 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this collection is contained 

in 47 USC 154(j), 201, 214 and 403. 

Total Annual Burden: 35 hours. 

Annual Cost Burden: $13,000. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. 

Needs and Uses: This collection will 

be submitted as an extension after the 

60-day comment period to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) in order 

to obtain the full three-year clearance. 

The Commission requests this 

information in order to make 

recommendations to the U.S. 

Department of State for granting 

recognized private operating agency 

(RPOA) status to requesting entities. The 

Commission does not require entities to 

request RPOA status. Rather, this is a 

voluntary application process for use by 

companies that believe that obtaining 

RPOA status will be beneficial in 

persuading foreign governments to 

allow them to conduct business abroad. 

RPOA status also permits companies to 

join the International 

Telecommunication Union’s (ITU’s) 

Telecommunications Sector, which is 

the standards-setting body of the ITU. 

The information furnished in RPOA 

requests is collected pursuant to 47 CFR 

63.701 of the Commission’s rules. 

Entities submit these applications on a 

voluntary basis. The collection of 

information is a one-time collection for 

each respondent. Without this 

information collection, the 

Commission’s policies and objectives 

for assisting unregulated providers of 

enhanced services to enter the market 

for international enhanced services 

would be thwarted. 

OMB Control No.: 3060–0454. 

Title: Regulation of International 

Accounting Rates. 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 5 

respondents; 41 responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 1–5 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this collection is contained 

in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 154(j), 201–205, 

214, 303(r) and 309. 

Total Annual Burden: 205 hours. 

Annual Cost Burden: $2,000. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. 

Needs and Uses: This collection will 

be submitted as an extension (no change 

in reporting or recordkeeping 

requirements) after this 60 day comment 

period to Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) in order to obtain the full 

three year clearance. 

The information is used by 

Commission staff in carrying out its 

duties under the Communications Act 

of 1934, as amended. The information 

collections are necessary for the 

Commission to maintain effective 

oversight of U.S. carriers that are 

affiliated with, or involved in certain comarketing or similar arrangements with, 

foreign carriers that are affiliated with, 

or involved in certain co-marketing or 

similar arrangements with, foreign 

carriers that have market power. 

Additionally, the information 

collections are necessary to analyze 

market trends to determine whether 

amendment of the Commission’s 

existing rules or proposals of new rules 

are necessary to promote effective 

competition and prevent anticompetitive behavior between American 

and foreign carriers. If the collections 

are not conducted or are conducted less 

frequently, applicants will not obtain 

the authorizations necessary to provide 

telecommunications services, and the 

Commission will be unable to carry out 

its mandate under the Communications 

Act of 1934, as amended. Furthermore, 

the Commission would lack sufficient 

information to determine whether new 

or modified rules are necessary to 

combat anti-competitive behavior 

between American and foreign carriers. 

OMB Control No.: 3060–0962. 

Title: Redesignation of the 18 GHz 

Frequency Band, Blanket Licensing of 

Satellite Earth Stations in the Ka-Band, 

and the Allocation of Additional 

Spectrum for Broadcast Satellite Use. 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection.

The collection of this information is 

necessary for the Commission to 

determine whether licensees are 

complying with the Commission’s rules 

applicable to satellite earth stations and 

to deploy new satellite systems. If the 

collection were not conducted, the 

Commission would not be able to verify 

whether NGSO/FSS satellite earth 

stations in the Ka-band were operating 

in accordance with Commission rules. 

Additionally, spectrum would not be 

used most efficiently and would, 

therefore, result in hindering the 

provision of new or enhanced 

telecommunications services to the 

public. 

OMB Control No.: 3060–1013. 

Title: Mitigation of Orbital Debris. 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a

309 and 310. 

Total Annual Burden: 159 hours. 

Annual Cost Burden: $74,000. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. 

Needs and Uses: This collection will

requirements) after this 60-day comment 

period to Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) in order to obtain the full 

three year clearance. 

Disclosure of debris mitigation plans 

as part of requests for FCC authorization 

will help preserve the United States’ 

continued affordable access to space, 

the continued provision of reliable U.S. 

space-based services—including 

communications and remote sensing 

satellite services for the U.S. 

commercial, government, and homeland 

security purposes—as well as the 

continued safety of persons and 

property in space and on the surface of 

the Earth. Disclosure of debris 

mitigation plans will allow the 

Commission and potentially affected 

third parties to evaluate satellite 

operators’ debris mitigation plans prior 

to the issuance of a FCC approval for 

communications activities in space. 

Disclosure may also aid in the wider 

dissemination of information 

concerning debris mitigation techniques 

and may provide a base-line of 

information that will aid in analyzing 

and refining those techniques. Without 

disclosure of orbital debris mitigation 

plans as part of applications for FCC 

authority, the Commission would be 

denied any opportunity to ascertain 

whether satellite operators are in fact 

considering and adopting reasonable 

debris mitigation practices, which could 

result in an increase in orbital debris 

and a decrease in the utility of space for 

communications and other uses. 

Furthermore, the effects of collisions 

involving orbital debris can be 

catastrophic and may cause significant 

damage to functional spacecraft or to 

persons or property on the surface of the 

Earth, if the debris re-enters the Earth’s 

atmosphere in an uncontrolled manner.

An International Signaling Point Code 

(ISPC) is a unique, seven-digit code 

synonymously used to identify the 

signaling network of each international 

carrier. The ISPC has a unique format 

that is used at the international level for 

signaling message routing and 

identification of signaling points. The 

Commission receives ISPC applications 

from international carriers on the 

electronic, Internet-based International 

Bureau Filing System (IBFS). After 

receipt of the ISPC application, the 

Commission assigns the ISPC code to 

each applicant (international carrier) 

free of charge on a first-come, firstserved basis. The collection of this 

information is required to assign a 

unique identification code to each 

international carrier and to facilitate 

communication among international 

carriers by their use of the ISPC code on 

the shared signaling network. The 

Commission informs the International 

Telecommunications Union (ITU) of its 

assignment of ISPCs to international 

carriers on an ongoing basis.

A Data Network Identification Code 

(DNIC) is a unique, four-digit number 

designed to provide discrete 

identification of individual public data 

networks. The DNIC is intended to 

identify and permit automated 

switching of data traffic to particular 

networks. The FCC grants the DNICs to 

operators of public data networks on an 

international protocol. The operators of 

public data networks file an application 

for a DNIC on the Internet-based, 

International Bureau Filing System 

(IBFS). The DNIC is obtained free of 

charge on a one-time only basis unless 

there is a change in ownership or the 

owner chooses to relinquish the code to 

the FCC. The Commission’s lack of an 

assignment of DNICs to operators of 

public data networks would result in 

technical problems that prevent the 

identification and automated switching 

of data traffic to particular networks. 

OMB Control No.: 3060–0751. 

Title: Contracts and Concessions—47 

CFR 43.51. 

Form No.: N/A.

The Commission is proposing that the 

title of the information collection be 

changed from ‘‘Reports Concerning 

International Private Lines 

Interconnected to the U.S. Public 

Switched Network’’ to ‘‘Contracts and 

Concessions—47 CFR 43.51’’ in order to 

more accurately describe the purpose 

and content of the information 

collection under OMB Control No. 

3060–0751. 

The Commission has determined that 

the authorized resale of international 

private lines interconnected to the U.S. 

public switched network would tend to 

divert international message telephone 

service (IMTS) traffic from the 

settlements process and increase the 

U.S. net settlements deficit. The 

information will be used by the 

Commission in reviewing the impact, if 

any, that end-user private line 

interconnections have on the 

Commission’s international settlements 

policy. The data will also enhance the 

ability of both the Commission and 

interested parties to monitor the 

unauthorized resale of international 

private lines that are interconnected to 

the U.S. public switched network.

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. 

Needs and Uses: Applicants and 

licensees are required to provide the 

requested information to the 

Commission and other third parties 

whenever they seek authority to provide

information is compiled less frequently 

or not filed in conjunction with the 

Commission’s rules, applicants and 

licensees will not obtain the 

authorization necessary to provide 

telecommunications services. 

Furthermore, the Commission would 

not be able to carry out its mandate as 

required by statute.
