Notice of Public Information Collection(s) Being Reviewed by the 
Federal Communications Commission

February 25, 2003.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission, as part of its 
continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden invites the general public 
and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the 
following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, Pub. L. 104-13. An agency may not conduct or 
sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently 
valid control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for 
failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the 
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that does not display a valid control 
number. Comments are requested concerning (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information 
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's 
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of 
the collection of information on the respondents, including the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted on or before April 3, 2003. 
If you anticipate that you will be submitting comments, but find it 
difficult to do so within the period of time allowed by this notice, 
you should advise the contact listed below as soon as possible.

Communications Commission, Room 1-C804, 445 12th Street, SW., DC 20554 
or via the Internet to [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information or copies

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No.: 3060-0241.
    Title: Temporary Authorizations.
    Form Nos.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit 
institutions, State, local or tribal government.
    Number of Respondents: 145.
    Estimated Time Per Response: .25--2 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement.
    Total Annual Burden: 157 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $62,000.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission is consolidating four information 
collections into one comprehensive collection covering temporary 
authorizations. All four collections were under different OMB control 
numbers but the Commission will retain 3060-0241 as the active OMB 
control number. All four rule sections require that the licensees of 
various services file an informal request for special temporary 
authorization. The data is used to ensure that the temporary 
authorization of stations will not cause interference to other existing 
stations and to assure compliance with current FCC rules and 
regulations.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
