FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

[OMB 3060-0633 and 3060-1155]


Information Collections Being Submitted for Review and Approval 
to the Office of Management and Budget

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, 
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501-3520), the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) 
invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this 
opportunity to comment on the following information collections. 
Comments are requested concerning: 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; the accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 
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; and ways to further reduce the 
information collection burden on small business concerns with fewer 
than 25 employees. The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of 
information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. No 
person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a 
collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a 
valid OMB control number.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted on or before April 1, 2015. 
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 contacts below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Nicholas A. Fraser, OMB, via 
email <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#c18fa8a2a9aeada0b29e80ef9e87b3a0b2a4b381aeaca3efa4aeb1efa6aeb7"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="36785f555e595a57456977186970445745534476595b541853594618515940">[email protected]</span></a>; and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No.: 3060-0633.
    Title: 73.1230, 74.165, 74.432, 74.564, 74.664, 74.765, 74.832, 
74.1265, Posting or Filing of Station License.
    Form No.: Not applicable.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities; Not-for-profit 
Institutions; Federal Government and State, local or tribal government.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 2,784 respondents and 2,784 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 0.083 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement, 
recordkeeping requirement, and third party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The 
statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 
Section 154(i) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended.
    Total Annual Burden: 231 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $24,860.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: In general there is no need 
for confidentiality with this collection of information.
    Needs and Uses: On June 2, 2014, the Commission released a Second 
Report and Order, FCC 14-62, WT Docket Nos. 08-166 and 08-167 and ET 
Docket No. 10-24, ``Revisions to Rules Authorizing the Operation of Low 
Power Auxiliary Stations in the 698-806 MHz Band.'' This order expanded 
eligibility for low power auxiliary station licenses under Part 74 by 
adding two new categories of eligible entities: ``large venue owner or 
operator'' and ``professional sound company.'' To be eligible for a 
Part 74 license, a large venue owner or operator and a professional 
sound company must routinely use 50 or more low power auxiliary station 
devices, where the use of such devices is an integral part of major 
events or productions.
    The Commission seeks OMB approval for a revision of this currently 
approved information collection to increase the number of respondents 
by 200 and the number of responses by 200 to reflect the estimated 
increase in licensed low power auxiliary station operators who will be 
subject to the requirement at section 74.832(j) to retain the station 
license in the licensee's files or post it at the transmitter or 
control point of the stations.

    OMB Control No.: 3060-1155.
    Title: Sections 15.713, 15.714, 15.715 and 15.717, TV White Space 
Broadcast Bands.
    Form No.: Not Applicable.
    Type of Review: Revision of an existing collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities; not-for-profit 
institutions; Federal government; and state, local or tribal 
government.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 2,000 respondents and 2,000 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 2.0 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement, 
recordkeeping requirement and third party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The 
statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 
47 U.S.C. 154(1), 302, 303(c), 303(f), and 307.
    Total Annual Burden: 4,000 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $100,000.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The Commission is not 
requesting respondents to submit confidential information to the 
Commission. Respondents may request confidential treatment of such 
information under 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission's rules.
    Needs and Uses: On June 2, 2014, the Commission released a Second 
Report and Order, FCC 14-62, WT Docket Nos. 08-166 and 08-167 and ET 
Docket No. 10-24, ``Revisions to Rules Authorizing the Operation of Low 
Power Auxiliary Stations in the 698-806 MHz Band.'' This order expanded 
eligibility for low power auxiliary station licenses under Part 74 by 
adding two new categories of eligible entities: ``Large venue owner or 
operator'' and ``professional sound company.'' The Commission is now 
requesting OMB approval for a revision of this information collection 
to increase by 200 the number of licensed low power auxiliary station 
operators who will be able to register in the database under 47 CFR 
15.713(h)(8) to reflect the estimated number of entities that will 
become eligible for a license under the Second Report and Order and 
which will register in the database. Because these newly-eligible 
licensees would likely have been able to register on an unlicensed 
basis under 47 CFR 15.713(h)(9) (and now will register as licensees 
instead), the Commission is also decreasing by 200 the number of 
unlicensed low power auxiliary station operators who will register in 
the database on an unlicensed basis under 47 CFR 15.713 (h)(9).
    The Commission seeks Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval 
for a revised information collection for an increase in the number of 
LPAS licensees that will register under 47 CFR 15.713(h)(8) and a 
decrease in the number of unlicensed wireless microphone users that 
will register on an unlicensed basis under 47 CFR 15.713(h)(9).

Federal Communications Commission.
Sheryl D. Todd,
Deputy Secretary, Office of the Secretary, Office of the Managing 
Director.
