SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Control No.: 3060-0104.
    Title: Temporary Permit to Operate a Part 90 Radio Station.
    Form No.: FCC Form 572.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Individuals or households, business or other for-
profit, not-for-profit institutions, state, local or tribal 
governments.
    Number of Respondents: 2,000.
    Estimated Time Per Response: 6 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement.
    Total Annual Burden: 200 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: N/A.
    Needs and Uses: Applicants are required to complete FCC Form 572 if 
they wish to have immediate authorization to operate 2-way radio 
equipment in Part 90 radio services. Applicants eligible to hold a 
radio station authorization in the Private Land Mobile Radio Service 
may use this form as a temporary permit to operate their equipment 
during processing of an application for license grant. This form is 
completed and posted at the applicant's station and is not submitted to 
the FCC.
    OMB Control No.: 3060-0746.
    Title: Application for Electronic Renewal of Wireless Radio 
Services Authorizations.
    Form No.: FCC Form 900.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Individuals or households, business or other for-
profit, not-for-profit institutions, state, local or tribal 
governments.
    Number of Respondents: 35,255.
    Estimated Time Per Response: 10 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement.
    Total Annual Burden: 5,852 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $2,155,675.
    Needs and Uses: This ``generic'' renewal application may be used in 
lieu of FCC Forms 313R, 405A, 452R and 574R, to file electronically for 
renewal of Wireless Radio Services Authorizations. Concurrent with 
renewal, applicants may also request a change of licensee name (with no 
change to corporate structure, ownership or control), change of mailing 
address, re-instatement of a Land Mobile license, and notify the 
Commission of a change in the number of mobiles/pagers for a Land 
Mobile license.
    Applicants still desiring to file for renewal of license manually 
may still do so by submitting the FCC Forms 313R, 405A, 452R, or 574R, 
depending upon which radio services for which they are licensed.
    This generic renewal form displays information from the current 
authorization as it exists in the Commission's license database based 
upon the call sign entered by the applicant. Information can be added 
and edited if necessary and electronically submitted to the Commission. 
It is estimated that 90% of these applications ``auto-grant'' within a 
few days of receipt and only 10% require further examiner review.
    The information is used by engineers for enforcement and 
interference resolution purposes.

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary.
