agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the following

    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for

that individuals may submit on one or more of these forms. FCC Form 159 
series instructions include a Privacy Act Statement. Furthermore, while 
the Commission is not requesting that the respondents submit 
confidential information to the FCC, respondents may request 
confidential treatment for information they believe to be confidential 
under 47 CFR Section 0.459 of the Commission's rules. The Commission 
has a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/OMD-25, Financial Operations 
Information System (FOIS), to cover any PII that individuals may 
submit. The SORN is posted on the FCC Privacy Web page at: https://www.fcc.gov/general/privacy-act-information#systems. Privacy Impact

Federal Communications Commission (e.g., payments for regulatory fees, 
application filing fees, auctions, fines, forfeitures, Freedom of 
Information Act (FOIA) billings, or any other debt due to the FCC. 
Information is collected on these forms to ensure credit for full 
payment, to ensure entities and individuals receive any refunds due, to 
service public inquiries, and to comply with the Debt Collection 
Improvement Act of 1996. On August 12, 2013 the Commission released a 
Report and Order (R&O), In the Matter Assessment and Collection of 
Regulatory Fee for Fiscal Year 2013 and Procedures for Assessment and 
Collection of Regulatory Fees, MD Docket Nos. 13-140 and 12-201, FCC 
13-110. In this R&O, the Commission requires that beginning in FY 2014, 
all regulatory fee payments be made electronically and that the 
Commission will no longer mail out initial regulatory fee assessments 
to CMRS providers.
