Wireless Services (AWS) in the 1.7 GHz 

and 2.1 GHz Bands. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other for– 

profit, not–for–profit institutions and 

state, local or tribal government. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 979 respondents, 1,630 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: .25 – 5 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: Semi–annual 

and on occasion reporting requirements, 

recordkeeping requirement and third 

party disclosure requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. sections 151, 

154(i), 301, 302, 303(f), 303(g), 303(r), 

307, 308, 309, 310, 316, and the 

Commercial Spectrum Enhancement 

Act (CSEA) of 2004, Pub. L. No. 108– 

494. 

Total Annual Burden: 33,480 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $581,800. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

There is no need for confidentiality 

except as follows: The clearinghouses 

have committed, pursuant to the FCC’s 

directive, to implement safeguards to 

maintain the confidentiality of 

information where necessary to protect 

respondents’ legitimate commercial 

interests. Additionally, the Ninth Report 

and Order, 71 FR 29818 (May 24, 2006), 

protects the specific location of the 

Broadband Radio Service (BRS) 

licensees’ end–user/subscriber 

equipment, customer names, addresses 

and contact for purpose of relocation, 

which could raise competitive concerns. 

The Commission’s rules permit filing 

information with the Commission to 

request confidential treatment of their 

information under 47 CFR 0.459 of the 

Commission’s rules. 

Needs and Uses: The Commission 

will submit this expiring information 

collection to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) during this comment 

period in order to obtain the full three 

year clearance from them and to keep 

the OMB approval from lapsing. The 

Commission has not changed the 

reporting, recordkeeping and/or third 

party disclosure requirements. The 

Commission is reporting a 4,333 hour 

adjustment increase in burden hours 

and a $2,139,400 decrease in annual 

costs. The change in burden hours and 

costs are due to a complete review of the 

Commission’s initial burden estimates. 

The public burden requirements will 

be used by incumbent licensees and 

new entrants to negotiate relocation 

agreements and to coordinate operations 

to avoid interference. The information 

will also be used by the clearinghouses 

to maintain a national database, 

determine reimbursement obligations of 

entrants pursuant to the Commission’s 

rules and notify such entrants of their 

reimbursement obligations. Also, the 

information will be used to facilitate 

dispute resolution and for FCC oversight 

of the clearinghouses and the cost– 

sharing plan. Additionally, the 

requirements regarding foreign 

ownership, substantial service 

compliance, and interference 

coordination has been used in the past 

and will continue to be used to 

minimize interference, verify that the 

applicants are legally and technically 

qualified to hold licenses, and to 

determine compliance with Commission 

rules. 

Federal Communications Commission.
