SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

This is a request for revision and 

extension to an approved information 

collection. 

The Department of Commerce (DOC), 

through the National Oceanic and 

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) 

Office of Space Commerce (OSC) 

Commercial Remote Sensing Regulatory 

Affairs (CRSRA), has the authority to 

regulate private space-based remote 

sensing under the Land Remote Sensing 

Policy Act of 1992, 51 U.S.C. 60101 et 

seq. (the Act) and regulations at 15 CFR 

part 960. The regulations facilitate the 

development of the U.S. private remote 

sensing industry and thus promote the 

collection and widespread availability 

of remote sensing data while preserving 

essential U.S. national security interests 

and observing international obligations. 

The proposed revisions in this notice 

are primarily tied to the development of 

a new, online platform to manage 

license actions called the Commerce 

Licensing and Compliance System for 

Space (CLCSS). CLCSS is intended to 

streamline the process for 

communications with CRSRA regarding 

applications, notices, modification 

requests, and annual compliance 

certifications. CRSRA is committed to 

improving the user experience and 

providing a simplified license 

application and management process for 

all licensees. The forms discussed below 

and their integration with CLCSS will 

streamline, clarify, and expedite 

paperwork submissions required to 

support regulation of the private spacebased remote sensing industry. 

Applications are made in response to 

the requirements in the Act, as 

amended. At present, CRSRA sends the 

applicant an Application Guide, which 

repeats the application questions and 

criteria listed in Appendix A to 15 CFR 

part 960 with an additional explanatory 

text. In the future, the CLCSS system 

will incorporate these questions and 

response criteria in a fillable, online 

form format. The application 

information received is used to 

determine if the applicant meets the 

legal criteria for issuance of a license to 

operate a private remote sensing space 

system, i.e., the proposed system will be 

operated in accordance with the Act, 

U.S. national security concerns and 

international obligations. Application 

information includes information about 

the applicant (such as corporate 

information), the launch dates of any 

components going to space, and 

technical specifications of all 

components of the remote sensing 

system. CRSRA has observed that 

relying on both the Appendix and the 

Application Guide creates confusion 

and has led to the submission of 

incomplete applications. CRSRA 

anticipates the fillable format, which 

combines both the Application Guide 

and criteria in Appendix A, will help 

any new applicant accurately provide 

the necessary information. If a licensee 

wishes to modify its license, either to 

reflect changes in its business practices 

or technical changes to its system, or to 

request different license conditions, it 

may submit such a request to CRSRA 

and explain why the change is sought. 

CRSRA needs this information to be 

able to keep licenses accurate and to 

respond to the regulated community’s 

needs. CRSRA is incorporating a new 

form called the License Modification 

Form with a standard set of questions 

licensees can provide for the 

modification request to be processed. 

Licensees will identify the relevant 

license provisions, the requested 

changes to those provisions, and the 

date upon which the requested change 

will take effect. CRSRA anticipates this 

will expedite how quickly the requests 

are processed and remove a moderate 

amount of paperwork by clarifying what 

to include with a modification request. 

Licensees are required to notify 

CRSRA when a spacecraft launches or 

deploys; upon disposal of an on-orbit 

component of the licensed system; upon 

detection of an anomaly; and upon the 

licensee’s financial insolvency or 

dissolution. The existing information 

collection already allows for the 

collection of this information through 

the Licensee Notification Form (LNF).
