Information Collection Being Reviewed 

by the Federal Communications 

Commission Under Delegated 

Authority 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort

Act (PRA), the Federal Communications 

Commission (FCC or Commission) 

invites the general public and other 

Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on the 

following information collections. 

Comments are requested concerning: 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the

Orbital debris consists of artificial 

objects orbiting the Earth that are not 

functional spacecraft. It consists of a 

wide range of non-functioning manmade objects that have been placed in 

the Earth’s orbit, both accidentally and 

on purpose. Orbital debris consists of 

small objects such as paint flakes, 

discarded lens caps, ejected bolts and 

pieces of debris from exploded 

spacecraft and rocket bodies. Since 

human activity in space began, there has 

been a steady growth in the number and 

total mass of orbital debris. Once 

created, debris remains in orbit 

indefinitely, absent other forces. Growth 

in the orbital debris population may 

limit the usefulness of space for 

communications and other uses in the 

future by raising the costs and lowering 

the reliability of space based systems. 

Furthermore, the effects of collisions 

involving orbital debris can be 

catastrophic and may cause significant 

damage to functional spacecraft or to 

persons or property on the surface of the 

Earth, if the debris re-enters the Earth’s 

atmosphere in an uncontrolled manner. 

The information collection 

requirements accounted for in this 

collection are necessary to mitigate the 

potential harmful effects of orbital 

debris accumulation. Without such 

information collection requirements, the 

growth in the orbital debris population 

may limit the usefulness of space for 

communications and other uses in the 

future by raising the costs and lowering 

the reliability of experimental and 

amateur systems. Furthermore, the 

effects of collisions involving orbital 

debris can be catastrophic and may 

cause significant damage to functional 

spacecraft or to persons or property on 

the surface of the Earth, if the debris reenters the Earth’s atmosphere in an 

uncontrolled manner.
