following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501-3520. Comments are requested

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; (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; and (e) 
ways to further reduce the information collection burden for small 
business concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
    The FCC 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 currently valid OMB control number.

Authorized Under This Subpart.

     Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
     Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit 
institutions, and state, local or tribal government.
     Number of Respondents: 3,941 respondents; 3,941 responses.
     Estimated Time Per Response: .166 hours (10 minutes).

     Needs and Uses: In 1999, the Commission adopted a Report and Order 
which adopted a revised timeframe for reporting the number of mobile 
units placed in operation from eight months to 12 months of the grant 
date of their license. The radio facilities addressed in this subpart 
of the rules are allocated on and governed by regulations designed to 
award facilities on a need basis determined by the number of mobile 
units served by each base station. This is necessary to avoid frequency 
hoarding by applicants. The rule section requires licensees to report 
the number of mobile units on FCC Form 601.
    Commission licensing personnel use the information to maintain an 
accurate database of frequency users. The Commission and the public use 
the database information in spectrum planning, interference resolution 
and licensing activities.

Federal Communications Commission.
