FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[OMB 3060–1003; FR ID 191626] 

Information Collection Being Reviewed 

by the Federal Communications 

Commission 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments.

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; ways to minimize 

the burden of the collection of

Title: Communications Disaster 

Information Reporting System (DIRS).

hour—1.5 hours (average per response).

Statutory authority for this collection is 

contained in sections 1, 4(i), 4(j), 4(o), 

251(e)(3), 254, 301, 303(b), 303(g), 

303(r), 307, 309(a), 309(j), 316, 332, and 

403 of the Communications Act of 1934,

U.S.C. 151, 154(i)–(j) & (o), 251(e)(3), 

254, 301, 303(b), 303(g), 303(r), 332, 

403, and 1302. 

Total Annual Burden: 16,320 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No Cost. 

Needs and Uses: The Commission 

launched the Disaster Information 

Reporting System (DIRS) in 2007 

pursuant to its mandate to promote the 

safety of life and property through the 

use of wire and radio communication as 

required by the Communications Act of 

1934, as amended. DIRS is a voluntary, 

efficient, and web-based system that 

communications companies may use to 

report their infrastructure status during 

times of crisis (e.g., related to a disaster). 

DIRS uses a number of template forms 

tailored to different communications 

sectors (i.e., wireless, wireline, 

broadcast, and cable) to facilitate the 

entry of this information. To use DIRS, 

a company first inputs its emergency 

contact information. After this, they 

submit information using the template 

form appropriate for their 

communications sector. In a Second 

Report and Order adopted on March 18, 

2021, as FCC 21–34, the Commission 

adopted rules allowing certain federal, 

state, and Tribal Nation agencies 

(Participating Agencies) to access to 

certain geographically relevant reports 

filed in the Commission’s Disaster 

Information Reporting System (DIRS). 

The information collections and record 

keeping provisions adopted will allow 

Participating Agencies to apply for, and 

receive access to, DIRS report in the 

areas where they have jurisdiction. The 

collection will further enable these 

Participating Agencies, at their election, 

to share DIRS reports with qualified 

local agencies whose jurisdiction is 

affected by a disaster, while still 

maintaining the confidentiality of the 

substantive data. The changes to the 

data collections fields in the DIRS 

filings made by service providers will 

further facilitate the ability of 

Participating Agencies to access those 

reports relevant to their specific 

geographies. Finally, the changes to the 

information collection and associated 

recordkeeping requirements, including 

retention by participating agencies of 

qualification forms submitted by local 

agency seeking access to DIRS data, as 

well as a list of which local agencies 

receive information from the 

Participating Agency, training materials 

setting clear parameters for the use of 

DIRS data, and a list of those persons 

granted DIRS account access, will 

enable auditing functions to ensure 

accountability in the use of DIRS 

information and immediate reporting of 

breaches of access or confidentiality 

protocols. 

The Commission notes that the 

information sharing framework 

established in the Second Report and 

Order allows for access to be granted not 

only for DIRS, but also to the 

Commission’s Network Outage 

Reporting System (NORS). We note that 

the process and requirements for 

Participating Agencies under this 

framework is identical, regardless of 

whether they seek access to NORS, 

DIRS, or both. Because the Commission 

anticipates that NORS and DIRS access 

will be requested together in most cases, 

it believes that the estimated burden 

hours and costs for Participating 

Agencies associated with DIRS access 

are fully included in the estimates that 

it has separately submitted as part of its 

collection on Part 4 of the Commission’s 

Rules Concerning Disruptions to 

Communications, OMB Control No. 

3060–0484. To avoid double-counting 

the estimated burden hours and costs 

associated with both collections, the 

Commission estimates the marginal cost 

of the Participating Agency aspect of 

this collection to be zero.
