    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has received Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) approval for the following public

OMB Control No.: 3060-0457.
    Title: Amendment of Part 22 of the Commission's Rules to Establish 
Standards for Conducting Comparative Cellular Renewal Proceedings-CC 
Docket No. 90-358.
    Expiration Date: 03/31/96.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 2,180 total annual hours; 19.81 hours per 
response.
    Description: In a Memorandum Opinion and Order on Further 
Reconsideration issued in CC Docket No. 90-358, released 07/07/94, the 
Commission revised certain rules governing the conduct of comparative 
renewal proceedings in the cellular radio service. Among other things, 
if a waiver of the step one hearing is granted, a renewal expectancy 
issue will be designated as part of the step two hearing and will be 
the most important comparative factor in deciding the case. Renewal 
applicants will now have sixty days after the issuance of the Public 
Notice announcing the filing of competing applications to file their 
renewal expectancy showing. The expedited hearing procedures apply to 
step one hearings as well as to step two hearings. Challenging 
applicants must file requests for waiver of step one hearings at the 
time they file their applications and allow other parties to respond to 
those requests at the same time that petitions to deny any of the 
applications are filed, i.e., thirty days after the renewal applicant 
files its renewal expectancy showing. The Commission amended its rule 
which required the disclosure of non-FCC misconduct as part of a 
licensee's renewal expectancy showing. The Commission also vacated the 
character reporting requirements contained in footnote six of the 
Reconsideration Order issued in this proceeding. In response to item 8 
on FCC Form 405, renewal applicants must reference its most recently 
filed FCC Form 600 (previously FCC Form 401) or FCC Form 430 by file 
numbers, date filed, and any other identifying information. FCC Forms 
600 and 430 contain relevant questions concerning the general character 
qualifications of the applicant. If there have been changes in the 
information submitted since the reference form was filed, the renewal 
applicant must indicate those changes in a separate exhibit.

OMB Control No.: 3060-0206.
    Title: Domestic Public Fixed Radio Services-Part 21.
    Expiration Date: 07/31/97.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 54,570 total annual hours; 1.9 avg. hours 
per response.
    Description: Part 21 contains the technical and legal requirements 
for radio stations operating in the Domestic Public Fixed Radio 
Services. General requirements under Part 21 are contained in subparts 
B, C and D. Miscellaneous requirements are found in subpart E. Special 
requirements for each service are provided in subparts G, I, J, and K. 
Special requirements for development authorizations are provided in 
subpart F. The information requested under Part 21 is used by the 
Commissions staff in carrying out its duties as set forth in Sections 
308 and 309 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, to determine 
the technical, legal and other qualifications of applicants to operate 
a station in the domestic fixed service. The information is also used 
to determine whether grant of an application will serve the public 
interest, convenience and necessity. The staff also uses this 
information to ensure that applicants and licensees comply with the 
ownership and transfer restrictions imposed by Section 310 of the Act.

OMB Control No.: 3060-0298.
    Title: Tariffs (Other Than Tariff Review Plan)-Part 61.
    Expiration Date: 07/31/97.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 972,423 total hours; 203 avg. hours per 
response.
    Description: Sections 201, 202, 203, 204, and 205 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. Sections 201, 202, 
203, 204 and 205 require that common carriers establish just and 
reasonable charges, practices and regulations for the services they 
provide. The schedules containing these charges, practices and 
regulations must be filed with the Commission which is required to 
determine whether such schedules are just, reasonable and not unduly 
discriminatory. Part 61 of the Commission's Rules establishes the 
procedures for filing tariffs which contain the charges, practices and 
regulations of the common carriers, supporting economic data and other 
related documents. Part 61 prescribes the framework for the initial 
establishment of and subsequent revisions to tariffs. The information 
is used by the Commission to determine whether the services offered are 
just and reasonable as the Act requires. The tariffs and any supporting 
documentation are examined in order to determine if the services are 
offered in a just and reasonable manner.
