3501-3520), 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 information shall have practical 
utility; the accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected;

151, 154, 301, 303, 307, 308, 309, 310, 316, 319, 325(b), 332, 336(f),

    Annual Cost Burden: $1,214,400.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for

    Needs and Uses: The collection is being made to the Office of 
Management (OMB) for the approval of information collection 
requirements contained in the Commission's Incentive Auction Order, FCC 
14-50, which adopted rules for holding an Incentive Auction, as 
required by the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 
(Spectrum Act). The information gathered in this collection will be 
used to require broadcasters transitioning to a new station following 
the Incentive Auction, or going off the air as a result of a winning 
bid in the Incentive Auction, to notify their viewers of the date the 
station will terminate operations on its pre-Auction channel by running 
public service announcements, and allow these broadcasters to inform 
MVPDs of their relinquishment or change in channel. It requires channel 
sharing agreements enter into by television broadcast licensees to 
contain certain provisions regarding access to facilities, financial 
obligations and to define each party's rights and responsibilities; the 
Commission will review each channel sharing agreement to ensure it 
comports with general rules and policies regarding license agreements. 
The provisions contained in this collection also require wireless 
licensees to notify low-power television and TV translator stations 
commence wireless operations and the likelihood of receiving harmful 
interference from the low power TV or TV translator station to such 
operations within the wireless licensee's licensed geographic service 
area. Finally, it requires license relinquishment stations and channel 
sharing stations to comply with notification and cancellation 
procedures as they terminate operations on their pre-Auction channel.
