FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION


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

May 18, 2004.

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 Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be 
submitted on or before June 28, 2004. 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.

ADDRESSES: Direct all comments regarding this Paperwork Reduction Act 
submission to Judith B. Herman, Federal Communications Commission, Room 
1-C804, 445 12th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20554 or via the Internet 
to [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information or copies 
of the information collection(s), contact Judith B. Herman at 202-418-
0214 or via the Internet at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No.: 3060-1058.
    Title: FCC Wireless Telecommunications Bureau Application or 
Notification for Spectrum Leasing Arrangement.
    Form No: FCC Form 603-T.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit 
institutions, and state, local and tribal government.
    Number of Respondents: 1,490.
    Estimated Time Per Response: 4 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and 
recordkeeping requirement.
    Total Annual Burden: 7,453 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $1,221,860.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Not applicable.
    Needs and Uses: The required application and notifications will 
provide the Commission with useful information about spectrum usage and 
helps to ensure that licensees and lessees are complying with 
Commission interference and non-interference related policies and 
rules. Similar information and verification requirements have been used 
in the past for licensees operating under authorizations, and such 
requirements will serve to minimize interference, verify lessees are 
legally and technically qualified to hold licenses, and ensure 
compliance with Commission rules. The Commission sought and received 
emergency clearance for the FCC Form 603-T and their rules in January 
2004. The Commission is now seeking extension (no change) for this 
information collection in order to obtain the full three year 
clearance.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
