FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION


Public Information Collection(s) Approved by Office of Management 
and Budget

December 7, 2005.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has received 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for the following public 
information collections pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995, Pub. L. 104-13. An agency may not conduct or sponsor and a person 
is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it 
displays a currently valid control number.

DATES: The revision to Sec.  101.1523(b) published at 70 FR 29985, May 
25, 2005, became effective on December 7, 2005.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Judith B. Herman at (202) 418-0214 or 
via the Internet at [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No.: 3060-1070.
    OMB Approval Date: December 7, 2005.
    Expiration Date: 12/31/08.
    Title: Allocations and Service Rules for the 71-76 GHz, 81-86 GHz, 
and 92-95 GHz Bands--WT Docket No. 02-146; FCC 05-45.
    Form No.: N/A.
    Number of Responses: 1,000 responses.
    Estimated Time Per Response: 1.5-3.5 hours.
    Total Annual Burden: 12,000 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $1,830,000.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission adopted a Memorandum Opinion and 
Order, WT Docket No. 02-146, FCC 05-45, which revises the rules to 
require licensees, as part of the link registration process, to submit 
to the Database Manager (DM) an analysis under the interference 
protection criteria for the 70-80 GHz bands that demonstrates that the 
proposed link will neither cause nor receive harmful interference 
relative to previously registered non-government links. This 
requirement will apply to link registrations (new or modified) that are 
first submitted to a database manager on or after the effective date of 
this new requirement. The database managers will accept all 
interference analyses submitted during the link registration process 
and retain them electronically for subsequent review by the public. It 
is important for the ``first-in-time'' determination, and for 
adjudicating complaints filed with the Commission, that the 
interference analysis captures the exact snapshot in time (i.e., 
conditions at the time-of-link-registration) that will be dispositive 
in a dispute. Without the benefit of an interference analysis on file, 
it would be much more difficult for registrants to recreate conditions 
accurately after the fact.

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