following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, Public Law 104-13. An agency 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

collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information 
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's 
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information collected; and (d) 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.

the construction status and operational parameters of each incumbent 
BRS system that would be subject of relocation. See ET Docket No. 00-
258, Order, 70 FR 61747 (October 26, 2005). This information will 
assist the Commission in determining the scope of the new Advanced 
Wireless Services (AWS) entrants' relocation obligations; also, 
reliable public data on each incumbent BRS system that would be subject 
to the relocation is essential well in advance of the planned auction 
of the 2150-2155 MHz band next year.
    The Commission will, after the 60 day comment period, submit this 
new information collection request to OMB in order to obtain the full 
three-year clearance from the OMB.
