FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS

COMMISSION

Notice of Public Information

Collections Being Reviewed by the

Federal Communications Commission

February 13, 1997.

SUMMARY: The Federal Communications

Commissions, as part of its continuing

effort to reduce paperwork burden

invites the general public and other

Federal agencies to take this

opportunity to comment on the

following information collection, as

required by the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1995, Public Law 104–13. An

agency may not conduct or sponsor a

collection of information unless it

displays a currently valid 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 (PRA) that

does not display a valid control number.

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 clarify 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.

DATES: Persons wishing to comment on

this information collection should

submit comments April 22, 1997.

ADDRESSES: Direct all comments to

Dorothy Conway, Federal

Communications Commissions, Room

234, 1919 M St., N.W., Washington, DC

20554 or via internet to

dconway@fcc.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For

at dconway@fcc.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

OMB Approval Number: 3060–0108.

Title: Emergency Alert Systems EAS

Activation Report.

Form No.: FCC Form 201.

Type of Review: Revision of existing

collection.

Respondents: Broadcasting Stations.

Number of Respondents: 13,000

respondents with 1,300 annually.

Estimated Time Per Response: 2

minutes.

Total Annual Burden: 42.

Estimated costs per respondent: 0.

Needs and uses: The Emergency

Broadcast System (EBS) has been

changed to the Emergency Alert System

(EAS). This change required that all EBS

collections/forms to be corrected to

reflect the name change. The EAS

Activation Report Postcard was

developed as part of the EAS planning

program. The program is a three agency

agreement between the FCC, NOAA

National Weather Service, and the

Federal Emergency Management Agency

(FEMA). The information is needed to

maintain accurate records and

documentation of broadcast stations and

cable systems in compliance with FCC

rules, and to enhance and encourage

participation in the national, state and

local EAS. Any reduction in the

frequency of this activity would result

in a proportional loss of benefit and

would cause a delay in the detection of

EAS equipment failures that could

cause the loss of national, state and

local emergency messages to the public

which in turn could cause the loss of

life and property.

OMB Number: 3060–0589.

Title: Remittance Advice Form.

Type of Review: Revision of currently

approved collection.

Form Number: FCC Form 159/159–C.

Respondents: Businesses or other forprofit; Individuals or households; small

business or organizations.

Number of Respondents: 213,500.

Estimated time per response: 15

minutes.
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 35 / Friday, February 21, 1997 / Notices 8017

Total annual burden: 53,375 hours.

Needs and Uses: Fees, Fines & Debts.

This form is the Commission’s

remittance advice and is to accompany

any payment submitted with it. The

purpose of the form is to provide the

identity of the payor, the amount being

paid, and the reason the payment is

being made. Specific identification of

the payor, such as call sign, or the bill

that was rendered, such as invoice

number, is also required. This

information facilitates the efficient and

accurate processing of the Commission’s

collections by its designated entities,

such as a lockbox bank. In P.L. 104–134,

Chapter 10, Sec.31001, signed April,

1966, the head of each Federal agency

must require each person doing

business with that agency to furnish to

it such person’s taxpayer identifying

number. Effective July, 1996 the U.S.

Treasury will ‘‘flag’’ (and notify the

Commission) andy and all payment

requests to anyone doing business with

the U.S. Government, if their taxpayer

identifying number has not been

furnished. The information will be used

by the FCC and the U.S. Treasury for

purposes of collecting and reporting on

any delinquent amounts arising out of

such person’s relationship with the

Government. For businesses, the

taxpayer identifying number is its

Internal Revenue Service-issued

employer identification number. This

number is currently used by the FCC as

the business’ account number for

identification purposes only. Obtaining

a social security number from an

individual is a new requirement

imposed on all Federal agencies.
