Annual Cost Burden: $2,522,590. 

Obligation To Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this information collection

201–205, 211, 214, 219, 220, 303(r), 309,

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

There is no need for confidentiality. 

Needs and Uses: The collection of 

information is used by the Commission 

staff in carrying out its duties under the 

Communications Act. The information 

collections pertaining to part 1 of the 

rules are necessary to determine 

whether the Commission should grant a 

license for proposed submarine cables 

landing in the United States. 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 obtains the approval from 

the State Department and seeks advice 

from other government agencies as 

appropriate. The information collections 

pertaining to part 63 are necessary 

largely to determine the qualifications of 

applicants to provide common carrier 

international telecommunications 

service, including applicants that are 

affiliated with foreign carriers, and to 

determine whether and under what 

conditions the authorizations are in the 

public interest, convenience, and 

necessity.

collection requirements (annual filings 

by licensees of reports on the status of 

their space station construction and 

launch) accounted for in this collection 

are necessary to ensure that prospective 

licensees in the Non-geostationary 

(NGSO) Fixed Satellite Service (FSS) 

follow their service rules.

Title: Surrenders of Authorizations for 

International Carrier, Space Station and 

Earth Station Licensees. 

Form Number: Not Applicable. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 306 

responses; 1 hour per response; 306 

total hours per year. 

Annual Cost Burden: None. 

Obligation to Respond: Voluntary. 

The statutory authority for this 

information collection is contained in 

sections 4(i), 7(a), 11, 303(c), 303(f), 

303(g), and 303(r) of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as

157(a), 161, 303(c), 303(f), 303(g), and 

303(r). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

There is no need for confidentiality. 

Needs and Uses: Licensees file 

surrenders of authorizations with the 

Commission on a voluntary basis. This 

information is used by Commission staff 

to issue Public Notices to announce the 

surrenders of authorization to the 

general public. The Commission’s 

release of Public Notices is critical to 

keeping the general public abreast of the 

licensees’ discontinuance of 

telecommunications services. Without 

this collection of information, licensees 

would be required to submit surrenders 

of authorizations to the Commission by 

letter which is more time consuming 

than submitting such requests to the 

Commission electronically. In addition, 

Commission staff would spend an 

extensive amount of time processing 

surrenders of authorizations received by 

letter. The collection of information 

saves time for both licensees and 

Commission staff since they are 

received in MyIBFS electronically and 

include only the information that is 

essential to process the requests in a 

timely manner. Furthermore, the Efiling module expedites the Commission 

staff’s announcement of surrenders of 

authorizations via Public Notice.

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM 

Federal Open Market Committee; 

Domestic Policy Directive of June 23 

and 24, 2009 

In accordance with § 271.25 of its 

rules regarding availability of 

information (12 CFR part 271), there is 

set forth below the domestic policy 

directive issued by the Federal Open 

Market Committee at its meeting held 

on June 23 and 24, 2009.1

The Federal Open Market Committee 

seeks monetary and financial conditions 

that will foster price stability and 

promote sustainable growth in output. 

To further its long–run objectives, the 

Committee seeks conditions in reserve 

markets consistent with federal funds 

trading in a range of 0 to 1⁄4 percent. The 

Committee directs the Desk to purchase 

agency debt, agency MBS, and longer– 

term Treasury securities during the 

intermeeting period with the aim of 

providing support to private credit 

markets and economic activity. The 

timing and pace of these purchases 

should depend on conditions in the 

markets for such securities and on a 

broader assessment of private credit 

market conditions. The Committee 

anticipates that the combination of 

outright purchases and various liquidity 

facilities outstanding will cause the size 

of the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet to 

expand significantly in coming months. 

The Desk is expected to purchase up to 

$200 billion in housing–related agency 

debt by the end of this year. The Desk 

is expected to purchase up to $1.25 

trillion of agency MBS by the end of the 

year. The Desk is expected to purchase 

up to $300 billion of longer–term 

Treasury securities by the end of the 

third quarter. The System Open Market 

Account Manager and the Secretary will 

keep the Committee informed of 

ongoing developments regarding the 

System’s balance sheet that could affect 

the attainment over time of the 

Committee’s objectives of maximum 

employment and price stability. 

By order of the Federal Open Market 

Committee, July 17, 2009. 

Brian F. Madigan, 

Secretary, Federal Open Market Committee.

material for which confidential 

treatment is requested must be filed in 

paper form, must be clearly labeled 

‘‘Confidential,’’ and must comply with 

FTC Rule 4.9(c).1
