Opportunities of Spectrum Through Incentive 

Auctions, GN Docket No. 12–268, Report and Order, 

29 FCC Rcd 6567 (2014) (‘‘Incentive Auction R&O’’) 

at 609. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit, Not-for-profit institutions and 

State, Local or Tribal Government. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 350 respondents; 350 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 5 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: One-time 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this collection is contained 

in Middle Class Tax Relief and Job 

Creation Act of 2012, Public Law 112– 

96 (Spectrum Act) section 6403(a)(1) 

and Repack Airwaves Yielding Better 

Access for Users of Modern Services Act 

of 2018, Public Law 115–141, Div. P, 

(RAY BAUM’S Act) section 1452. 

Total Annual Burden: 1,750 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No Cost. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

Impact(s). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

The information collection includes 

information identifying bank accounts 

and providing account and routing 

numbers to access those accounts. FCC 

considers that information to be records 

not routinely available for public 

inspection under 47 CFR 0.457, and 

exempt from disclosure under FOIA 

exemption 4 (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)). 

Needs and Uses: The Commission is 

requesting Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) approval for a three-year 

extension of this information collection. 

The Spectrum Act requires the 

Commission to reimburse broadcast 

television licensees for costs 

‘‘reasonably incurred’’ in relocating to 

new channels assigned in the repacking 

process and Multichannel Video 

Programming Distributors (MVPDs) for 

costs reasonably incurred in order to 

continue to carry the signals of stations 

relocating to new channels as a result of 

the repacking process or a winning 

reverse auction bid.1

The Commission decided through 

notice-and-comment rulemaking that it 

will issue all eligible broadcasters and 

MVPDs an initial allocation of funds 

based on estimated costs, which will be 

available for draw down (from 

individual accounts in the U.S. 

Treasury) as the entities incur expenses, 

followed by a subsequent allocation to 

the extent necessary. The reason for 

allowing eligible entities to draw down 

funds as they incur expenses is to 

reduce the chance that entities will be 

unable to finance necessary relocation 

changes.2

The information collection for which 

we are requesting approval is necessary 

for eligible entities to instruct the 

Commission on how to pay the amounts 

the entities draw down, and for the 

entities to make certifications that 

reduce the risk of waste, fraud, abuse 

and improper payments.

by the Federal Communications 

Commission 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for

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 August 9, 

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 PRA@

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