Information Collection Being Reviewed by the Federal 
Communications Commission

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, 
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (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 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; 
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on the 
respondents, 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.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted on or before August 21, 
2017. If you anticipate that you will be submitting comments, but find 
it difficult to do so within the period of time allowed by this notice, 
you should advise the contacts below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Cathy Williams, FCC, via email: 
[email protected] and to [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the 
information collection, contact Cathy Williams at (202) 418-2918.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of its continuing effort to reduce 
paperwork burdens, and as required by the PRA, 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 quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 
ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on the 
respondents, 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.
    OMB Control Number: 3060-1070.
    Title: Allocation and Service Rules for the 71-76 GHz, 81-86 GHz, 
and 92-95 GHz Bands.
    Form Number: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities; not-for-profit 
institutions; and State, local, or Tribal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 754 respondents; 3,000 responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1.5 to 9 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement, 
recordkeeping requirement, and third-party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. 
Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 
U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 303(f) and (r), 309, 316, and 332 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended.
    Total Annual Burden: 11,250 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $910,000.
    Privacy Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for 
confidentiality. The Commission has not granted assurances of 
confidentially to those parties submitting the information. In those 
cases where a respondent believes information requires confidentiality, 
the respondent can request confidential treatment and the Commission 
will afford such confidentiality for 20 days, after which the 
information will be available to the public.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission is seeking an extension of this 
information collection in order to obtain the full three year approval 
from OMB. There are no program changes to the reporting, recordkeeping 
and/or third-party disclosure requirements but we are revising 
estimates based on experience and the possible addition of a fourth 
database manager. The recordkeeping, reporting, and third party 
disclosure requirements will be used by the Commission to verify 
licensee compliance with the Commission rules and regulations, and to 
ensure that licensees continue to fulfill their statutory 
responsibilities in accordance with the Communications Act of 1934. The 
Commission's rules promote the private sector development and use of 
71-76 GHz, 81-86 GHz, and 92-95 GHz

bands (70/80/90 GHz bands). Such information has been used in the past 
and will continue to be used to minimize interference, verify that 
applicants are legally and technically qualified to hold license, and 
to determine compliance with Commission rules.
