ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information

    OMB Control No.: 3060-1147.
    Title: Wireless E911 Location Accuracy Requirements (Third Report 
and Order in PS Docket No. 07-114, FCC 11-107).
    Form No.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, State, Local or tribal 
Government, and Federal Government.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 4,294 respondents; 4,510 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour-8 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. 
Statutory authority for this collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 
Sections 151, 154(i), 301, 303(r), and 332 of the Communications Act, 
as amended.
    Total Annual Burden: 31,668 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: No cost.
    Privacy Impact Assessment: No Impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: No confidentiality is 
required for this collection.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission is seeking Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) approval for an extension of this information collection 
(no change in the reporting requirement or in the previous burden 
estimates). The Commission will submit this information collection to 
OMB after this 60-day comment period.
    The Commission's Third Report and Order in PS Docket No. 07-114 
adopted a rule providing that new CMRS network providers meeting the 
definition of covered CMRS providers in Section 20.18 and deploying new 
stand-alone networks must meet the handset-based location accuracy 
standard in delivering emergency calls for Enhanced 911 service. The 
rule requires that new stand-alone CMRS providers must satisfy the 
handset-based location accuracy standard at either a county-based or 
Public Safety Answering Point

[[Page 13749]]

(PSAP)-based geographic level. Additionally, in accordance with the 
pre-existing requirements for CMRS providers using handset-based 
location technologies, new stand-alone CMRS providers are permitted to 
exclude up to 15 percent of the counties or PSAP areas they serve due 
to heavy forestation that limits handset-based technology accuracy in 
those counties or areas but are required to file an initial list of the 
specific counties or portions of counties where they are utilizing 
their respective exclusions.
    A. Updated Exclusion Reports. Under this information collection and 
pursuant to current rule section 20.18(h), new stand-alone CMRS 
providers and existing CMRS providers that have filed initial exclusion 
reports are required to file reports informing the Commission of any 
changes to their exclusion lists within thirty days of discovering such 
changes. The permitted exclusions properly but narrowly account for the 
known technical limitations of either the handset-based or network-
based location accuracy technologies chosen by a CMRS provider, while 
ensuring that the public safety community and the public at large are 
sufficiently informed of these limitations.
    B. Confidence and Uncertainty Data. Under this information 
collection and pursuant to current rule section 20.18(h), all CMRS 
providers and other entities responsible for transporting confidence 
and uncertainty data between the wireless carriers and PSAPs, including 
LECs, CLECs, owners of E911 networks, and emergency service providers 
(collectively, System Service Providers (SSPs)) must continue to 
provide confidence and uncertainty data of wireless 911 calls to Public 
Safety Answering Points (PSAP) on a per call basis upon a PSAP's 
request. New stand-alone wireless carriers also incur this obligation. 
The transport of the confidence and uncertainty data is needed to 
ensure the delivery of accurate location information with E911 service.
