AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments.

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0812. 

Title: Exemption from Payment of 

Regulatory Fees When Claiming NonProfit Status. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Not-for-profit 

organizations and business or other forprofit organizations. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 19,169 respondents; 19,269 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 30 

minutes (0.5 hours). 

Frequency of Response: Annual, on 

occasion and one-time reporting 

requirements and recordkeeping 

requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

(IC) is contained in 47 U.S.C. 159. 

Total Annual Burden: 9,635 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

Licensees or regulatees concerned about 

disclosure of sensitive information in 

any submissions to the Commission 

may request confidential treatment 

pursuant to 47 CFR 0.459 of the 

Commission’s rules. 

Needs and Uses: The Federal 

Communications Commission (FCC), in 

accordance with the Communications 

Act of 1934, as amended, is required to 

assess and collect regulatory fees from 

its licensees and regulatees in order to 

recover its costs incurred in conducting 

enforcement, policy and rulemaking, 

international and user information 

services. 

The purposes for the requirements are 

to facilitate: (1) The statutory provision 

that non-profit entities be exempt from 

payment of regulatory fees; and (2) the 

FCC’s ability to audit regulatory fee 

payment compliance. 

In order to develop a Schedule of 

Regulatory Fees, the FCC must, as 

accurately as possible, estimate the 

number of fee payment entities and 

distribute the costs. These estimates 

must be adjusted to account for any 

licensees or regulatees that are exempt 

from payment of regulatory fees. The 

FCC, therefore, requires all licensees 

and regulatees that claim exemption as 

non-profit entities to provide one-time 

only documentation sufficient to 

establish their non-profit status. Further, 

the FCC is requesting that it be similarly 

notified if for any reason that status 

changes. The documentation necessary 

to provide to the Commission will likely 

take the form of an Internal Revenue 

Service (IRS) Determination Letter, a 

state charter indicating non-profit 

status, proof of church affiliation 

indicating tax exempt status, etc. 

The FCC is requiring licensees or 

regulatees to maintain and to make 

available, upon request, for inspection 

such records they would normally keep 

in the course of doing business. 

This will enable the FCC to conduct 

any audits deemed appropriate to 

determine whether fee payments were 

made correctly, and will help ensure 

compliance with the FCC fee exemption 

policies.

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. 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0944.

Landing License Application. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business and other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 38 respondents; 94 

responses.

hour–17 hours.

reporting requirement, Recordkeeping 

requirement and third party disclosure 

requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

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 Burden: 421 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $88,505. 

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. 3060–0944. 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.
