Federal Communications Commission; Comments Requested

September 20, 2000.

SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission, 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 clarity 
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: Written comments should be submitted on or before November 28, 
2000. If you anticipate that you will be submitting comments, but find 
it difficult to do so within the period of time allowed by this notice, 
you should advise the contact listed below as soon as possible.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Number: 3060-0029.
    Title: Application for TV Broadcast Station License.
    Form Number: FCC 302-TV.
    Type of Review: Revision of currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit 
institutions.
    Number of Respondents: 93.
    Estimated time per response: 4-10 hours (1-2 hours respondent/2-6 
hours consulting engineer).
    Frequency of Response: Reporting, on occasion.
    Total annual burden: 224.
    Costs to Respondents: $61,390.
    Needs and Uses: Licensees and permittees of TV broadcast stations 
are required to file FCC Form 302-TV to obtain a new or modified 
station license, and/or to notify the Commission of certain changes in 
the licensed facilities of these stations.
    The Commission has substantially revised the FCC 302-TV to 
facilitate electronic filing by replacing narrative exhibits with the 
use of certifications and an engineering technical box. The Commission 
also deleted and narrowed overly burdensome questions. The FCC 302-TV 
has been supplemented with detailed instructions to explain processing 
standards and rule interpretations to help ensure that applicants 
certify accurately. These changes will streamline the Commission's 
processing of FCC 302-TV applications.
    The data is used by FCC staff to confirm that the station has been 
built to terms specified in the outstanding construction permit, and to 
update FCC station files. Data is then extracted from FCC 302-TV for 
inclusion in the subsequent license to operate the station.

Federal Communications Commission.
Magalie Roman Salas,
Secretary.
