FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[OMB 3060–0686] 

Information Collections Being 

Reviewed by the Federal 

Communications Commission 

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 (44 U.S.C. 3501– 

3520), 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 December 22, 

2014. 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 PRA@

in sections 1, 4(i), 4(j), 11, 201–205, 208, 

211, 214, 219, 220, 303(r), 309, 310 and 

403 of the Communications Act of 1934, 

as amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 

154(j), 161, 201–205, 208, 211, 214, 219, 

220, 303(r), 309, 310 and 403. 

Total Annual Burden: 3,286 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $755,400. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. 

Needs and Uses: The Federal 

Communications Commission 

(Commission) is requesting that the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) approve a revision of OMB 

Control No. 3060–0686. The purpose of 

this revision is to obtain OMB approval 

of rules adopted in the Commission’s 

Report and Order in IB Docket No. 12– 

299, FCC 14–48, adopted and released 

on August 22, 2014 (Report and Order). 

In the Report and Order, the 

Commission eliminated the effective 

competitive opportunities (ECO) test 

from sections 63.11(g)(2) and 63.18(k) of 

the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 

63.11(g)(2), 63.18(k), which apply to 

applications filed under section 63.18, 

47 CFR 63.18, for authority to provide 

U.S.-international telecommunications 

service pursuant to section 214 of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended (Communications Act), 47 

U.S.C. 214, and to foreign carrier 

affiliation notifications filed under 

section 63.11 of the Commission’s rules, 

47 CFR 63.11. The Commission is also 

making adjustments to the hour and cost 

burdens associated with other rules and 

requirements covered by this 

information collection. 

The information will be used by the 

Commission staff in carrying out its 

duties under the Communications Act. 

The information collections are 

necessary largely to determine the 

qualifications of applicants to provide 

common carrier international 

telecommunications service, including 

applicants that are, or are affiliated 

with, foreign carriers, and to determine 

whether and under what conditions the 

authorizations are in the public interest, 

convenience, and necessity. The 

information collections are also 

necessary to maintain effective oversight 

of U.S. international carriers generally. 

If the collections are not conducted or 

are conducted less frequently, 

applicants will not obtain the 

authorizations necessary to provide 

telecommunications services, and the 

Commission will be unable to carry out 

its mandate under the Communications 

Act. In addition, without the 

information collections, the United 

States would jeopardize its ability to 

fulfill the U.S. obligations as negotiated 

under the WTO Basic Telecom 

Agreement because these collections are 

imperative to detecting and deterring 

anticompetitive conduct. They are also 

necessary to preserve the Executive 

Branch agencies’ and the Commission’s 

ability to review foreign investments for 

national security, law enforcement, 

foreign policy, and trade concerns.

Frequency of Response: On occasion

authority for this collection is contained 

in the Submarine Cable Landing License 

Act of 1921, 47 U.S.C. 34–39, Executive 

Order 10530, section 5(a), and the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 152, 154(i)-(j), 

155, 303(r), 309, 403.

Total Annual Cost: $88,505. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. 

Needs and Uses: The Federal 

Communications Commission 

(Commission) is requesting that the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) approve a revision of OMB 

Control No. 3060–0944. The purpose of 

this revision is to obtain OMB approval 

of rules adopted in the Commission’s 

Report and Order in IB Docket No. 12– 

299, FCC 14–48, adopted and released 

on August 22, 2014 (Report and Order). 

In the Report and Order, the 

Commission eliminated the effective 

competitive opportunities (ECO) test 

from sections 1.767(a)(8) and 1.768(g)(2) 

of the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 

1.767(a)(8), 1.768(g)(2), which apply to 

cable landing license applications filed 

under the Submarine Cable Landing 

License Act of 1921, 47 U.S.C. 34–39, 

and section 1.767 of the Commission’s 

rules, 47 CFR 1.767, and to foreign 

carrier affiliation notifications filed 

under section 1.768 of the Commission’s 

rules, 47 CFR 1.768. The Commission is 

also making adjustments to the hour and 

cost burdens associated with other rules 

and requirements covered by this 

information collection. 

The information will be used by the 

Commission staff in carrying out its 

duties under the Submarine Cable 

Landing License Act of 1921, 47 U.S.C. 

34–39, Executive Order 10530, section 

5(a), and the Communications Act of 

1934, as amended. The information 

collections are necessary largely to 

determine whether and under what 

conditions the Commission should grant 

a license for proposed submarine cables 

landing in the United States, including 

applicants that are, or are affiliated 

with, foreign carriers in the destination 

market of the proposed submarine cable. 

Pursuant to Executive Order No. 10530, 

the Commission has been delegated the 

President’s authority under the Cable 

Landing License Act to grant cable 

landing licenses, provided that the 

Commission must obtain the approval of 

the State Department and seek advice 

from other government agencies as 

appropriate. If the collection is not 

conducted or is conducted less 

frequently, applicants will not obtain 

the authorizations necessary to provide 

telecommunications services and 

facilities, and the Commission will be 

unable to carry out its mandate under 

the Cable Landing License Act and 

Executive Order 10530. In addition, 

without the collection, the United States 

would jeopardize its ability to fulfill the 

U.S. obligations as negotiated under the 

World Trade Organization (WTO) Basic 

Telecom Agreement because certain of 

these information collection 

requirements are imperative to detecting 

and deterring anticompetitive conduct. 

They are also necessary to preserve the 

Executive Branch agencies’ and the 

Commission’s ability to review foreign 

investments for national security, law 

enforcement, foreign policy, and trade 

concerns.
