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 November 13, 
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 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 quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information collected; ways to minimize the burden of the collection of

    OMB Control No.: 3060-1095.
    Title: Surrenders of Authorizations for International Carrier, 
Space Station and Earth Station Licensees.
    Form No.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities.
    Number of Respondents: 8 respondents; 8 responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Voluntary. The statutory authority for this 
information collection is contained in Sections 4(i), 7(a), 11, 303(c), 
303(f), 303(g), and 303(r) of the Communications Act of 1934, as 
amended; 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 157(a), 161, 303(c), 303(f), 303(g), and 
303(r).
    Total Annual Burden: 8 hours.
    Annual Cost Burden: None.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: In general, there is no need 
for confidentiality with is collection of information.
    Needs and Uses: This collection will be submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) as an extension after this 60-day comment 
period has ended in order to obtain the full three-year clearance from 
OMB. There are no changes in the number of respondents, responses, 
annual burden hours and total annual costs.
    Licensees file surrenders of authorizations with the Commission on 
a voluntary basis. This information is used by Commission staff to 
issue Public Notices to announce the surrenders of authorization to the 
general public. The Commission's release of Public Notices is critical 
to keeping the general public abreast of the licensees' discontinuance 
of telecommunications services.
    Without this collection of information, licensees would be required 
to submit surrenders of authorizations to the Commission by letter 
which is more time consuming than submitting such requests to the 
Commission electronically. In addition, Commission staff would spend an 
extensive amount of time processing surrenders of authorizations 
received by

[[Page 43013]]

letter. The collection of information saves time for both licensees and 
Commission staff since they are received in IBFS electronically and 
include only the information that is essential to process the requests 
in a timely manner. Furthermore, the E-filing module expedites the 
Commission staff's announcement of surrenders of authorizations via 
Public Notice.
