The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).

*Agency:*                     National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).                

*Title:*                     Emergency Beacon Registrations.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0648-0295.                

*Form Number(s):*                     None.

*Number of Respondents:*                     301,231.                

*Average Hours per Response:*                     15 minutes.

                    An international system exists to use satellites to detect and locate ships, aircraft, and individuals in distress if they are equipped with an emergency radio beacon. Persons purchasing a digital distress beacon, operating in the frequency range of 406.000 to 406.100                           ( print page 41613)                        MHz, must register it with NOAA. These requirements are contained in Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulations at 47 CFR 80.1061, 47 CFR 87.199 and 47 CFR 95.1402. The data provided by registration can assist in identifying who is in distress and in suppression of false alarms.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or households; business or other for-profit organizations; not for profit institutions; federal government; state, local or tribal government.                

*Frequency:*                     Biannually and on occasion.                

*Respondent's Obligation:*                     Mandatory.                

                    This information collection request may be viewed at                     *reginfo.gov*. Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce collections currently under review by OMB.                

                    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice to                     *OIRA_Submission@omb.eop.gov*                     or fax to (202) 395-5806.
