22518 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 77 / Wednesday, April 22, 2015 / Notices 

Respondents/affected entities: State, 

tribal, and territorial environmental 

government offices. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (2 CFR part 200 and 2 CFR 

part 1500). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

200 (total). 

Frequency of response: Twice per year 

for the Semi-Annual Progress Report 

Form; one time per grant for the Quality 

Assurance Reporting Form. 

Total estimated burden: 340 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $17,979 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 5 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This decrease is due to a decrease 

in the number of grants that are awarded 

annually.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[OMB 3060–0441 and 3060–0297] 

Information Collections Being 

Reviewed by the Federal 

Communications Commission Under 

Delegated Authority 

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 PRA comments should 

be submitted on or before June 22, 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 contact listed below as soon 

as possible. 

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to 

Cathy Williams, FCC, via email PRA@

fcc.gov and to Cathy.Williams@fcc.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

additional information about the 

information collection, contact Cathy 

Williams at (202) 418–2918. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0441. 

Title: Section 90.621, Selection and 

Assignment of Frequencies and Section 

90.693, Grandfathering Provisions for 

Incumbent Licensees. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Not-for-profit 

institutions; and State, Local, or Tribal 

Government. 

Number of Respondents: 36 

respondents; 36 responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 1.5 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation To Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. Sections 154(i) 

and 309(j). 

Total Annual Burden: 54 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $4,500. 

Privacy Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Needs and Uses: Section 90.621(b)(4) 

allows stations to be licensed at 

distances less than those prescribed in 

the Short-Spacing Separation Table 

where applicants ‘‘secure a waiver.’’ 

Applicants seeking a waiver in these 

circumstances are still required to 

submit with their application an 

interference analysis, based upon any of 

the generally-accepted terrain-based 

propagation models, demonstrating that 

co-channel stations would receive the 

same or greater interference protection 

than provided in the Short-Spacing 

Separation Table. 

Section 90.621(b)(5) permits stations 

to be located closer than the required 

separation, so long as the applicant 

provides letters of concurrence 

indicating that the applicant and each 

co-channel licensee within the specified 

separation agree to accept any 

interference resulting from the reduced 

separation between systems. Applicants 

are still required to file such 

concurrence letters with the 

Commission. Additionally, the 

Commission did not eliminate filings 

required by provisions such as 

international agreements, its 

environmental (National Environmental 

Protection Act (NEPA)) rules, its 

antenna structure registration rules, or 

quiet zone notification/filing 

procedures. 

Section 90.693 requires that 800 MHz 

incumbent Specialized Mobile Radio 

(SMR) service licensees ‘‘notify the 

Commission within 30 days of any 

changes in technical parameters or 

additional stations constructed that fall 

within the short-spacing criteria.’’ It has 

been standard practice for incumbents 

to notify the Commission of all changes 

and additional stations constructed in 

cases where such stations are in fact 

located less than the required 70 mile 

distance separation, and are therefore 

technically ‘‘short-spaced,’’ but are in 

fact fully compliant with the parameters 

of the Commission’s Short-Spacing 

Separation Table. 

The Commission uses this 

information to determine whether to 

grant licenses to applicants making 

‘‘minor modifications’’ to their systems 

which do not satisfy mileage separation 

requirements pursuant to the ShortSpacing Separation Table. 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0297. 

Title: Section 80.503, Cooperative Use 

of Facilities. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Not-for-profit 

institutions; and State, Local, or Tribal 

Government. 

Number of Respondents: 100 

respondents; 100 responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 16 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: Occasion 

reporting requirement and 

Recordkeeping requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. Sections 151–

Act of 1934, as amended; and 3 UST 

3450, 3 UST 4726, 12 UST 2377. 

Total Annual Burden: 1,600 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Privacy Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Needs and Uses: Section 80.503 

requires that a licensee of a private coast 

station or marine utility station on shore 

may install ship radio stations on board 

United States commercial transport 

vessels of other persons. In each case 

these persons must enter into a written 

agreement verifying that the ship station 

licensee has the sole right of control of 

the ship stations, that the vessel 

operators must use the ship stations 

subject to the orders and instructions of 

the coast station or marine utility station 

on shore, and that the ship station 

licensee will have sufficient control of 

the ship station to enable it to carry out 

its responsibilities under the ship 

station license. A copy of the contract/ 

written agreement must be kept with the 

station records and made available for 

inspection by Commission 

representatives. 

The information is used by FCC 

personnel during inspection and 

investigations to insure compliance 

with applicable rules. If this information 

was not available, enforcement efforts 

could be hindered; frequency 

congestion in certain bands could 

increase; and the financial viability of 

some public coast radiotelephone 

stations could be threatened.
