Rules Governing the Licensing of, and 

Spectrum Usage by, Satellite Network 

Stations and Space Stations.

303(g) and 303(r) of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended, 47 U.S.C. Sections 154(i), 

157(a), 303(c), 303(f), 303(g) and 303(r).

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:

Needs and Uses: On October 17, 2008, 

the Federal Communications 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) released 

an Eighth Report and Order and Order 

on Reconsideration titled, ‘‘In the Matter 

of 2000 Biennial Regulatory Review— 

Streamlining and Other Revisions of 

Part 25 of the Commission’s Rules 

Governing the Licensing of, and 

Spectrum Usage by, Satellite Network 

Earth Stations and Space Stations; 

Streamlining the Commission’s Rules 

and Regulations for Satellite 

Applications and Licensing Procedures’’ 

(FCC 08–246), IB Docket Nos. 00–248 

and 95–117. In the Eighth Report and 

Order, the Commission further 

streamlined the Commission’s nonroutine earth station processing rules by 

adopting a new earth station procedure 

that will enable the Commission to treat 

more applications routinely than is 

possible under the current earth station 

procedures. This rulemaking facilitates 

the provision of broadband Internet 

access services. 

The PRA information collection 

requirements contained in the Eighth 

Report and Order are as follows: 

1. The Commission plans to modify 

the ‘‘Application for Satellite Space and 

Earth Station Authorizations’’ (FCC 

Form 312), including Schedule B, in the 

International Bureau Filing System 

(‘‘MyIBFS’’) to reflect the off-axis 

equivalent isotropically radiated power 

(EIRP) envelope compliance 

mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 12 / Wednesday, January 21, 2009 / Notices 3597 

requirement. In the interim, earth 

station applicants must submit a table as 

an attachment to the FCC Form 312 to 

show their compliance with the off-axis 

EIRP requirement. 

2. Earth station licensees who plan to 

use a contention protocol must certify 

that their contention protocol usage will 

be reasonable. In the future, the 

Commission will revise the FCC Form 

312 in MyIBFS to provide a streamlined 

method for earth station applicants 

planning to use a contention protocol to 

make this certification. 

The information collection 

requirements accounted for in this 

collection are necessary to determine 

the technical and legal qualifications of 

applicants or licensees to operate a 

station, transfer or assign a license, and 

to determine whether the authorization 

is in the public interest, convenience 

and necessity. Without such 

information, the Commission could not 

determine whether to permit 

respondents to provide 

telecommunication services in the U.S. 

Therefore, the Commission would be 

unable to fulfill its statutory 

responsibilities in accordance with the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended, and the obligations imposed 

on parties to the World Trade 

Organization (WTO) Basic Telecom 

Agreement.
