Communications Commission (FCC or 

the Commission) invites the general 

public and other Federal agencies to 

take this opportunity to comment on the 

following information collection.

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the

OMB Control Number: 3060–1080. 

Title: Improving Public Safety 

Communications in the 800 MHz Band. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Not-for-profit 

institutions, and State, Local or Tribal 

governments. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 428 respondents; 2,143 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 0.5 

hours–10 hours (4.5 hours average). 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement and third party 

disclosure requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154, 160,

Total Annual Burden: 7,411 hours.

Privacy Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

The Commission will work with 

respondents to ensure that their 

concerns regarding the confidentiality of 

any proprietary or public safetysensitive information are resolved in a 

manner consistent with the 

Commission’s rules. See 47 CFR 0.459. 

Needs and Uses: The Commission 

will submit this expiring information 

collection to the Office of Management 

Budget (OMB) after this 60 day 

comment period in order to obtain the 

full three year clearance from them. The 

information sought will assist 800 MHz 

licensees in preventing or resolving 

interference and enable the Commission 

to implement its rebanding program. 

Under that program, certain licensees 

are being relocated to new frequencies 

in the 800 MHz band, with all rebanding 

costs paid by Sprint Nextel Corporation 

(Sprint). The Commission’s overarching 

objective in this proceeding is to 

eliminate interference to public safety 

communications. The Commission’s 

orders provided for the 800 MHz 

licensees in non-border areas to 

complete rebanding by June 26, 2008. 

This completion date was not met and 

the Commission orders also provide for 

rebanding to be completed in the areas 

along the U.S. borders with Canada and 

Mexico. 

Federal Communications Commission.
