SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Control Number: 3060-0261.
    Title: Section 90.215, Transmitter Measurements.
    Form No.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit 
institutions, and state, local or tribal government.
    Number of Respondents: 191,698 respondents; 450,754 responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 2 minutes (.033 hours).
    Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
    Total Annual Burden: 4,958 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: N/A.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for 
confidentiality.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this information 
collection to OMB as an extension (no change in recordkeeping 
requirements) during this comment period to obtain the full three-year 
clearance from them. The Commission has adjusted the number of 
respondents and total annual burden hours due to an increase in the 
number of licensees subject to this rule requirement.
    Section 90.215 requires station licensees to measure the carrier 
frequency, output power, and modulation of each transmitter authorized 
to operate with power in excess of two watts when the transmitter is 
initially installed and when any changes are made which would likely 
affect the modulation characteristics. Such measurements, which help 
ensure proper operation of transmitters, are to be made by a qualified 
engineering measurement service, and are required to be retained in the 
station records, along with the name and address of the engineering 
measurement service, and the person making the measurements.
    The information is normally used by the licensee to ensure that 
equipment is operating within the prescribed tolerances. Prior 
technical operation of transmitters helps limit interference to other 
users and provides the licensee with the maximum possible utilization 
of equipment.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
