The Commission has adjusted the number of respondents and responses due to an increase in the number of respondents for this information collection. Therefore, we are reporting a +7 hour adjustment in the total annual burden. 

Section 87.219 requires that if airports have control towers or Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) flight service stations, and more than one licensee wants to have an automated aeronautical advisory station (Unicom), they must write an agreement outlining who will be responsible for the Unicom's operation, sign the agreement and keep a copy of the agreement with each licensee's station authorization. 

Specifically, only one automated Unicom may be operated at an uncontrolled airport. Prior to the operation of an automated Unicom at an airport with more than one Unicom licensee, all of the licensees at that airport must sign a letter of agreement stating which licensee(s) control the automated Unicom operations, and, if control is to be shared among several operators, how that control will be divided or scheduled. The original or a copy of the letter of agreement must be kept with each licensee's station records. Within 90 days of the date upon which a new Unicom operator is licensed at an airport where more than one Unicom is authorized, and an automated Unicom is being operated, an amended letter of agreement that includes the new licensee's signature must be sign or automated Unicom operations must cease. 

The information will be used by compliance personnel for enforcement purposes and by licensees to clarify responsibility in operating Unicom.

Manufacturers of Low Power Radio Service (LPRS) transmitters used for auditory assistance, health care assistance, and law enforcement tracking purposes must include with each transmitting device the following statement: “This transmitter is authorized by rule under the Low Power Radio Service (47 CFR Part 95) and must not cause harmful interference to TV reception or United States Navy SPASUR installations. You do not need an FCC license to operate this transmitter. This transmitter may only be used to provide: auditory assistance to persons with disabilities, persons who require language translation, or persons in educational settings; health care services to the ill; law enforcement tracking services under agreement with a law enforcement agency; or automated maritime telecommunications system (AMTS) network control communications. Two-way voice communications and all other types of uses not mentioned above are expressly prohibited.” 

Prior to operating a LPRS transmitter for AMTS purposes, an AMTS licensee must notify, in writing, each television station that may be affected by such operations, as defined in 47 CFR 80.215(h) of the Commission's rules. The notification provided with the station's license application is sufficient to satisfy this requirement if no new television stations would be affected. 

The information is used by Commission staff and affected television stations to be aware of the location of potential harmful interference from AMTS operations. If this information was not available, the location of potential harmful interference from AMTS operations would be negatively affected.
