FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[OMB 3060–0496; FR ID 43963] 

Information Collection 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, the Federal 

Communications Commission (FCC or 

the 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 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 Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

control number. 

DATES: Written PRA comments should 

be submitted on or before October 25, 

2021. 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 

Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email PRA@

fcc.gov and to Nicole.Ongele@fcc.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

additional information about the 

information collection, contact Nicole 

Ongele at (202) 418–2991. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0496. 

Title: ARMIS Operating Data Report. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 49 respondents; 49 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 8 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: Annual 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Mandatory. 

Statutory authority for this information 

collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 

Sections 219 and 220 of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended. 

Total Annual Burden: 392 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

Ordinarily questions of a sensitive 

nature are not involved in the ARMIS 

Report 43–08. The Commission 

contends that areas in which detailed 

information is required are fully subject 

to regulation and the issue of data being 

regarded as sensitive will arise in 

special circumstances only. In such 

circumstances, respondents may request 

materials or information submitted to 

the Commission be withheld from 

public inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of 

the Commission’s rules. 

Needs and Uses: The information 

contained in FCC Report 43–08 has 

helped the Commission fulfill its 

regulatory responsibilities. Automated 

reporting of these data greatly enhances 

the Commission’s ability to process and 

analyze the extensive amounts of data 

provided in the reports. Automating and 

organizing data submitted to the 

Commission facilitate the timely and 

efficient analysis of revenue 

requirements, rates of return and price 

caps, and provide an improved basis for 

auditing and other oversight functions. 

Automated reporting also enhances the 

Commission’s ability to quantify the 

effects of policy proposals. The 

Commission has granted all carriers 

forbearance from many of the 

requirements of ARMIS 43–08 

conditioned on approval of a data 

retention compliance plan and 

continued submission of certain ARMIS 

43–08 data related to access lines in 

service to customers.
