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

    OMB Control Number: 3060-0208.
    Title: Section 73.1870, Chief Operators.
    Form Number: Not applicable.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business and other for-profit; Not-for-profit 
institutions.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 18,498 respondents; 36,996 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 0.166-26 hours.
    Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement; Third party 
disclosure requirement.
    Total Annual Burden: 484,019 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: None.

    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for 
confidentiality with this collection of information.
    Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No impact(s).
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirements contained 
in 47 CFR 73.1870 require that the licensee of an AM, FM, or TV 
broadcast station designate a chief operator of the station. Section 
73.1870(b)(3) requires that this designation must be in writing and 
posted with the station license. Section 73.1870(c)(3) requires that 
the chief operator, or personnel delegated and supervised by the chief 
operator, review the station records at least once each week to 
determine if required entries are being made correctly, and verify that 
the station has been operated in accordance with FCC rules and the 
station authorization. Upon completion of the review, the chief 
operator must date and sign the log, initiate corrective action which 
may be necessary and advise the station licensee of any condition which 
is repetitive. The posting of the designation of the chief operator is 
used by interested parties to readily identify the chief operator. The 
review of the station records is used by the chief operator, and FCC 
staff in investigations, to ensure that the station is operating in 
accordance with its station authorization and the FCC rules and 
regulations.
