# 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 Commission) invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the following information collections. 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 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 February 3, 2015. 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.

*Title:*                     Parts 1 and 22 Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements.                

*Form Number:*                     Not applicable.                

*Type of Review:*                     Revision of a currently approved collection.                

*Respondents:*                     Business or other for-profit entities, Individuals or households, and State, Local or Tribal Governments.                

*Number of Respondents and Responses:*                     15,713 respondents; 15,713 responses.                

*Estimated Time per Response:*                     15 minutes-10 hours.                

*Frequency of Response:*                     Recordkeeping requirement; On occasion, quarterly, and semi-annual reporting requirements.                

*Obligation to Respond:*                     Required to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 154, 222, 303, 309 and 332.                

*Total Annual Burden:*                     4,894 hours.                

*Annual Cost Burden:*                     $19,445,250.                

*Privacy Act Impact Assessment:*                     Yes.                

*Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:*                     There is no need for confidentiality with this collection of information. The information to be collected will be made available for public inspection. Applicants may request materials or information submitted to the Commission be given confidential treatment under 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission's rules.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     Part 22 contains the technical and legal requirements for radio stations operating in the Public Mobile Services. The information collected is used to determine on a case-by-case basis, whether or not to grant licenses authorizing construction and operation of wireless telecommunications facilities to                           ( print page 72174)                        common carriers. Further, this information is used to develop statistics about the demand for various wireless licenses and/or the licensing process itself, and occasionally for rule enforcement purposes.                

This revised information collection reflects changes in rules applicable to Part 22 800 MHz Cellular Radiotelephone (“Cellular”) Service licensees and applicants, as adopted by the Commission in a Report and Order (“R&O”) on November 7, 2014 (WT Docket No. 12-40; RM No. 11510; FCC 14-181). By the R&O, the Commission eliminates or streamlines certain Cellular Service filing requirements, thereby reducing the information collection burdens for Cellular Service respondents.

*OMB Control No.:*                     3060-0800.                

*Title:*                     FCC Application for Assignments of Authorization and Transfers of Control: Wireless Telecommunications Bureau and/or Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau.                

*Form No.:*                     FCC Form 603.                

*Type of Review:*                     Revision of a currently approved collection.                

*Respondents:*                     Individuals or households; business or other for-profit entities; not-for-profit institutions; State, local or Tribal Government.                

*Number of Respondents and Responses:*                     2,447 respondents; 2,447 responses.                

*Estimated Time per Response:*                     0.5-1.75 hours.                

*Frequency of Response:*                     Recordkeeping requirement; occasion reporting requirement.                

*Obligation to Respond:*                     Required to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 47 U.S.C. 4(i), 154(i), 303(r) and 309(j).                

*Total Annual Burden:*                     2,759 hours.                

*Total Annual Cost:*                     $366,975.                

*Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:*                     In general there is no need for confidentiality. On a case by case basis, the Commission may be required to withhold from disclosure certain information about the location, character, or ownership of a historic property, including traditional religious sites.                

*Privacy Act Impact Assessment:*                     Yes.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     FCC Form 603 is a multi-purpose form used to apply for approval of assignment or transfer of control of licenses in the wireless services. The data collected on this form is used by the FCC to determine whether the public interest would be served by approval of the requested assignment or transfer. This form is also used to notify the Commission of consummated assignments and transfers of wireless and/or public safety licenses that have previously been consented to by the Commission or for which notification but not prior consent is required. This form is used by applicants/licensees in the Public Mobile Services, Personal Communications Services, General Wireless Communications Services, Private Land Mobile Radio Services, Broadcast Auxiliary Services, Broadband Radio Services, Educational Radio Services, Fixed Microwave Services, Maritime Services (excluding ships), and Aviation Services (excluding aircraft).                

The purpose of this form is to obtain information sufficient to identify the parties to the proposed assignment or transfer, establish the parties' basic eligibility and qualifications, classify the filing, and determine the nature of the proposed service. Various technical schedules are required along with the main form applicable to Auctioned Services, Partitioning and Disaggregation, Undefined Geographical Area Partitioning, Notification of Consummation or Request for Extension of Time for Consummation.

This revised information collection reflects changes in rules applicable to Part 22 800 MHz Cellular Radiotelephone (“Cellular”) Service licensees and applicants, as adopted by the Commission in a Report and Order (“R&O”) on November 7, 2014 (WT Docket No. 12-40; RM No. 11510; FCC 14-181). In addition to other rule revisions that do not affect this information collection, the Commission adopted a revised rule Section 22.948(a) to require the electronic submission of maps (in GIS format and PDF) when the Cellular applicant submits Form 603 to apply for Partitioning and Disaggregation. This requirement very slightly increases the total annual burden hours for this information collection. FCC Form 603 itself is not being revised.

*OMB Control No.:*                     3060-1058.

*Frequency of Response:*                     Recordkeeping requirement and on occasion reporting requirement.                

*Obligation to Respond:*                     Required to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 154(j), 155, 158, 161, 301, 303(r), 308, 309, 310, 332 and 503.                

*Total Annual Burden:*                     996 hours.                

*Annual Cost Burden:*                     $1,282,075.                

*Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:*                     In general there is no need for confidentiality. On a case by case basis, the Commission may be required to withhold from disclosure certain information about the location, character, or ownership of a historic property, including traditional religious sites.                

*Privacy Act Impact Assessment:*                     Not applicable.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     FCC Form 608 is a multipurpose form. It is used to provide notification or request approval for any spectrum leasing arrangement (“Lease”) entered into between an existing licensee in certain wireless services and a spectrum lessee. This form also is required to notify or request approval for any spectrum subleasing arrangement (“Sublease”). The data collected on the form is used by the FCC to determine whether the public interest would be served by the Lease or Sublease. The form is also used to provide notification for any Private Commons Arrangement entered into between a licensee, lessee, or sublessee and a class of third-party users (as defined in Section 1.9080 of the Commission's Rules).                

                    This revised information collection reflects changes in rules applicable to Part 22 800 MHz Cellular Radiotelephone (“Cellular”) Service licensees and applicants, as adopted by the Commission in a                     *Report and Order*                     (“                    *R&O*                    ”) on November 7, 2014 (WT Docket No. 12-40; RM No. 11510; FCC 14-181). In addition to other rule revisions that do not affect this information collection, the Commission adopted a revised rule Section 22.948(d) to require the electronic submission of maps (in GIS format and PDF) when the Cellular Service applicant submits Form 608.                

The requirement very slightly increases the total annual burden hours for this information collection. FCC Form 608 itself is not being revised.
