FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

[OMB 3060-1042; FR ID 66156]


Information Collections Being Reviewed by the Federal 
Communications Commission

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, 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 March 11, 
2022. 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 to 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#174745565771747439707861"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="5e0e0c1f1e383d3d70393128">[email protected]</span></a> and to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#b2f1d3c6dacb9ce5dbdededbd3dfc1f2d4d1d19cd5ddc4"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="afeccedbc7d681f8c6c3c3c6cec2dcefc9cccc81c8c0d9">[email protected]</span></a>.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the 
information collection, contact Cathy Williams at (202) 418-2918.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control No.: 3060-1042.
    Title: Request for Technical Support--Help Request Form.
    Form No.: N/A--Electronic only.
    Type of Review: Extension of currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Individuals or household; business or other for-
profit; not-for-profit institutions; and state, local or tribal 
government.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 36,300 respondents and 36,300 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 0.14 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and 
recordkeeping requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. There 
is no statutory authority for this information collection. The 
Commission developed this information collection on its own motion to 
assist users of the Universal Licensing System (ULS) or other FCC 
electronic systems.
    Total Annual Burden: 5,082 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $609,840.
    Needs and Uses: The FCC maintains internet software used by the 
public to apply for licenses, participate in auctions for spectrum, and 
maintain license information. In this mission, FCC has a `help desk' 
that answers questions related to these systems as well as resetting 
and/or issuing user passwords for access to these systems. The form 
currently is available on the website https://esupport.fcc.gov/request.htm under OMB Control Number 3060-1042. This form will continue 
to substantially decrease public and staff burden since all the 
information needed to facilitate a support request will be submitted in 
a standard format but be available to a wider audience. This eliminates 
or at least minimizes the need to follow-up with the customers to 
obtain all the information necessary to respond to their request. This 
form also helps presort requests into previously defined categories to 
all staff to respond more quickly.

Federal Communications Commission.

Federal Register Liaison, Office of the Secretary.
