FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[OMB 3060–1042; FR ID 266288] 

Information Collection 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 of 1995 (PRA), 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 collection. 

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 Office of 

Management and Budget (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 February 4, 

2025. 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 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 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.

Secretary.
