Management And Budget For Review

July 11, 1994.
    The Federal Communications Commission has submitted the following 
information collection requirement to OMB for review and clearance 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3507).
    Copies of this submission 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 this submission contact Judy Boley, Federal 
Communications Commission, (202) 632-0276. Persons wishing to comment

OMB Number: None
Title: Section 1.402, Pioneer's preference
Action: Reinstatement of a preciously approved collection for which 
approval has expired
Respondents: Businesses or other for-profit (including small 
businesses)
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement
Estimated Annual Burden: 3 responses; 500 hours average burden per 
response; 1,500 hours total annual burden
Needs and Uses: A Report and Order was adopted in April 1991 creating a 
``pioneer's preference'' for those entities whose proposals foster the 
introduction and development of new communications technologies and 
services in the spectrum allocation and authorization process. A 
Memorandum Opinion and Order was adopted in February 1992 modifying the 
rule section. Specifically, a deadline was established for the filing 
of pioneer's preference requests and certain rules were clarified. 
Information submitted by applicants for a pioneer's preference will be 
used by the Commission to determine whether initiation of a rulemaking 
proceeding is warranted and, if so, whether applicants are entitled to 
preferences. If the information is not collected, it would not be 
possible to award preferences.

Federal Communications Commission.
William F. Caton,
Acting Secretary.
