84 FR 30296 - Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; Clearance of Approval of New Information Collection: For the Information Collection Entitled, Website for Frequency Coordination Request (WebFCR), Pursuant to FAA Order 60

In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval to allow a new information collection. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection of information was published on April 19, 2019. The FAA has developed and deployed an information system, The Web-based Frequency Coordination Request (WebFCR) system to collect certain broadcast frequency information originally collected on form 7460-1, under OMB control number 2120- 0001. It was determined that several broadcast applications from proponents not associated with construction, alterations and/or obstructions were not being properly captured with the required frequency data impacting the initiation of aeronautical studies, hence this defined new collection.

Information Collection Entitled, Website for Frequency Coordination 
Request (WebFCR), Pursuant to FAA Order 6050.32B

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA 
invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) approval to allow a new information 
collection. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period 
soliciting comments on the following collection of information was 
published on April 19, 2019. The FAA has developed and deployed an 
information system, The Web-based Frequency Coordination Request 
(WebFCR) system to collect certain broadcast frequency information 
originally collected on form 7460-1, under OMB control number 2120-
0001. It was determined that several broadcast applications from 
proponents not associated with construction, alterations and/or 
obstructions were not being properly captured with the required 
frequency data impacting the initiation of aeronautical studies, hence 
this defined new collection.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by July 26, 2019.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit written comments on 
the proposed information collection to the Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget. Comments should be 
addressed to the attention of the Desk Officer, Department of 
Transportation/FAA, and sent via electronic mail to 
[email protected], or faxed to (202) 395-6974, or mailed to 
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management 
and Budget, Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, 
DC 20503.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Victor Hinton by email at: 
[email protected]; phone: (202) 267-7532.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of 
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for FAA's performance; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the 
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (d) 
ways that the burden could be minimized without reducing the quality of 
the collected information. The agency will summarize and/or include 
your comments in the request for OMB's clearance of this information 
collection.
    OMB Control Number: 2120-XXXX.
    Title: Website for Frequency Coordination Request (WebFCR) 
webfcr.faa.gov.
    Form Numbers: Prior associated with FAA Form 7460-1.
    Type of Review: Request for a new information collection.
    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information 
was published on April, 19 2019 (FR 16557). 49 U.S.C. Section 44718(c) 
under Broadcast Applications and Tower Studies states, ``In carrying 
out laws related to a broadcast application--the Administrator of the 
Federal Aviation Administration and the Federal Communications 
Commission shall take action necessary to coordinate efficiently--(1) 
The receipt and consideration of, and action on, the application; and 
(2) The completion of any associated aeronautical study. The previous 
broadcast radio frequency data via OMB Control 2120-0001 only addressed 
non-Federal requests related to construction, alterations and 
obstructions, not capturing military, federal agency broadcast 
applications which require consideration, analysis or aeronautical 
studies pursuant to 49 U.S.C. Section 44718(c).
    Respondents: Approximately 1,200 annually nationwide. The 
Respondents are engineers, analysts, consultants, stakeholders or 
federal agency managers, including military services, who have a need 
to transmit on a radio frequency which is within the National 
Telecommunications and Information Administration's (NTIA) Aviation 
Assignment Group (AAG) frequency band assigned to the FAA for civil 
aviation use. The response to this data collection is required for the 
proponent to obtain FAA concurrence to use a radio frequency that 
impacts civil aviation. The information collected through the WebFCR 
portal supports the engineering, modeling, validation and workflow 
management of the request to evaluate if the request interferes or 
impacts civil aviation operations pursuant to FAA Order 6050.32B.
    Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: .2 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 240 hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on June 20, 2019.
