    The Federal Communications Commission has submitted the following 
information collection requirements to OMB for review and clearance 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3507).
    Copies of these submissions may be purchased from the Commission's 
copy contractor, International Transcription Service, Inc., 2100 M 
Street, NW., suite 140, Washington, DC 20037, (202) 857-3800. For 
further information on these submissions contact Judy Boley, Federal 
Communications Commission, (202) 632-0276. Persons wishing to comment 
on these information collections should contact Timothy Fain, Office of 
Management and Budget, Room 3221 NEOB, Washington, DC 20503, (202) 395-

OMB Number: 3060-0141.
Title: Application for renewal of private operational fixed microwave 
radio station license.
Form Number: FCC Form 402R.
Action: Revision of Currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or households, state or local governments, 
non-profit institutions, and businesses or other for-profit (including 
small businesses).

Estimated Annual Burden: 4,000 responses; .33 hours average burden per 
response; 1,320 hours total annual burden.
Needs and Uses: In accordance with FCC rules radio station licensees 
are required to apply for renewal of their radio station authorization 
every five years. The FCC Form 402R was revised to include the Anti-
Drug Abuse certification statement, reference to meters added, deleted 
two data elements and added two. Commission personnel will use the data 
to determine eligibility for a renewal authorization and issue a radio 
station license. Data is also used by Compliance personnel in

OMB Number: 3060-0383.
Title: Part 25--Satellite Communications.
Respondents: Businesses or other for-profit (including small 
businesses).

Needs and Uses: The collections of information contained in Rulepart 25 
are used by Commission staff in carrying out its duties as set forth in 
sections 308 and 309 of the Communications Act, to determine the 
technical, legal and other qualifications of an applicant to operate a 
station. The information is used to determine whether the objectives of 
public interest, convenience and necessity in accordance with Section 
309 of the Act are being met. The Communications Act at section 301 
authorized the Commission to issue licenses for radio communications. 
The information is also used to ensure that applicants and licensees 
comply with the ownership and transfer restrictions imposed by section 
310 of the Act. The Commission's rules and regulations governing 
satellite communications are found at 47 CFR part 25. General 
requirements under part 25 are contained in subpart A, subpart B 
contains applications and licenses requirements, subpart C contains the 
technical standards, subpart D contains technical operations, subpart E 
contains the requirements for developmental operations, and subpart H 
provides the requirements concerning the authorization of stock in 
Communications Satellite Corporation. These rules establish the formal 
mechanisms for the filing and processing of earth and space station 
applications. See Amendment of the Commission's Rules to Establish 
Rules and Policies Pertaining to a Non-voice, Non-geostationary Mobile-
Satellite Service, adopted 6/21/93; released 11/10/93.
