SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission, as part of its

and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the 
following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, Public Law 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 September 14, 2007. If you anticipate that you 
will be submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within

    Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this information 
collection to OMB as an extension during this comment period to obtain 
the full three-year clearance from them. The Commission has adjusted 
the total annual burden hours due to an increase in the number of 
respondents.
    Sections 90.35 and 90.175 require third party disclosure 
requirements by applicants proposing to operate a land mobile radio 
station. If they have service contours that overlap an existing land 
mobile station, they are required to obtain written concurrence of the 
frequency coordinator associated with the industry for which the 
existing station license was issued, or the written concurrence of the 
licensee of the existing station.
    The Commission needs this requirement to evaluate the applicant's 
need for such frequencies and to minimize the interference potential to 
other stations operating on the proposed frequencies.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
