must be submitted by the state/tribe to 

EPA to request assumption and must be 

sufficient to enable EPA to undertake a 

thorough analysis of the state/tribal 

program. Once the required information 

and documents are submitted and EPA 

has a complete assumption request 

package, the statutory time clock for 

EPA’s decision to either approve or 

disapprove the state/tribe’s assumption 

request starts. The information 

contained in the assumption request 

submission is provided to the Army 

Corps of Engineers, U.S. Fish and 

Wildlife Service and U.S. National 

Marine Fisheries Service and to the 

public for review and comment. 

States/tribes with assumed programs 

must be able to issue permits that assure 

compliance with all applicable statutory 

and regulatory requirements, including 

the 404(b)(1) Guidelines. Sufficient 

information must be provided in the 

application so that states/tribes and 

federal agencies reviewing the permit 

can evaluate, avoid, minimize and 

compensate for any anticipated impacts 

resulting from the proposed project. 

EPA’s assumption regulations establish 

required elements that must be included 

in the state/tribe’s permit application, so 

that sufficient information is available 

to make a thorough analysis of 

anticipated impacts. (40 CFR 233.30). 

These minimum information 

requirements generally reflect the 

information that must be submitted 

when applying for a section 404 permit 

from the Army Corps of Engineers. 

EPA has an oversight role for assumed 

404 permitting programs to ensure that 

state/tribal programs comply with 

applicable requirements and that state/ 

tribal permit decisions adequately 

consider, avoid, minimize and 

compensate for anticipated impacts. 

States/tribes must evaluate their 

programs annually and submit the 

results in a report to EPA. EPA’s 

assumption regulations establish 

minimum requirements for the annual 

report (40 CFR 233.52). 

The information included in the state/ 

tribe’s assumption request and the 

information included in a permit 

application is made available for public 

review and comment. The information 

included in the annual report to EPA is 

made available to the public. EPA does 

not make any assurances of 

confidentiality for this information. 

(CWA section 404(h); CWA section 

404(j); 40 CFR 230.10, 233.20, 233.21, 

233.34, and 233.50; and 33 CFR 325) 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: States/ 

tribes requesting assumption of the 

CWA section 404 permit program; 

states/tribes with approved assumed 

programs; and permit applicants in 

states/tribes with assumed programs. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Required to obtain or retain a benefit (40 

CFR 233). 

Estimated number of respondents: 2 

states/tribes requesting program 

assumption; 11,900 permit applications; 

and 4 states/tribes that will submit an 

annual report. 

Frequency of response: Once for 

states/tribes to request assumption; 

annually for states/tribes submitting the 

annual report; and once for permit 

applicants when requesting a permit. 

Total estimated burden: 119,707 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: Costs to states 

for assumed Section 404 permit 

programs will vary widely by state and 

permit, however there are no capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 28,747 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase reflects an increase 

in hours spent reviewing each permit.

including the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and ways to 

further reduce the information 

collection burden on small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 employees. 

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor 

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) control 

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

PRA that does not display a valid OMB 

control number.

the PRA of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), 

the FCC 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 

information shall have practical utility; 

the accuracy of the Commission’s 

burden estimate; ways to enhance the

OMB Control Number: 3060–0944. 

Title: Cable Landing License Act—47 

CFR 1.767; 1.768; Executive Order 

10530. 

Form Number: Submarine Cable 

Landing License Application. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business and other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 38 respondents; 94 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 0.50 

hour to 17 hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement, Quarterly 

reporting requirement, Recordkeeping 

requirement and third-party disclosure 

requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this collection is contained 

in the Submarine Cable Landing License 

Act of 1921, 47 U.S.C. 34–39, Executive 

Order 10530, section 5(a), and the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 152, 154(i)–(j), 

155, 303(r), 309, 403. 

Total Annual Burden: 421 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $88,505. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. 

Needs and Uses: The Federal 

Communications Commission 

(Commission) is requesting that the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) approve a three-year extension of 

OMB Control No. 3060–0944. There are 

no changes in the number of 

respondents, responses, annual burden 

hours and annual costs. 

The information will be used by the 

Commission staff in carrying out its 

duties under the Submarine Cable 

Landing License Act of 1921, 47 U.S.C. 

34–39, Executive Order 10530, section 

5(a), and the Communications Act of 

1934, as amended. The information 

collections are necessary largely to 

determine whether and under what 

conditions the Commission should grant 

a license for proposed submarine cables 

landing in the United States, including 

applicants that are, or are affiliated 

with, foreign carriers in the destination 

market of the proposed submarine cable. 

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 must obtain the approval of 

the State Department and seek advice 

from other government agencies as 

appropriate. If the collection is not 

conducted or is conducted less 

frequently, applicants will not obtain 

the authorizations necessary to provide 

telecommunications services and 

facilities, and the Commission will be 

unable to carry out its mandate under 

the Cable Landing License Act and 

Executive Order 10530. In addition, 

without the collection, the United States 

would jeopardize its ability to fulfill the 

U.S. obligations as negotiated under the 

World Trade Organization (WTO) Basic 

Telecom Agreement because certain of 

these information collection 

requirements are imperative to detecting 

and deterring anticompetitive conduct. 

They are also necessary to preserve the 

Executive Branch agencies’ and the 

Commission’s ability to review foreign 

investments for national security, law 

enforcement, foreign policy, and trade 

concerns.
