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 (PRA) of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501 - 3520. 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; (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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    OMB Control Number: 3060-0295.
    Title: Section 90.607(a)(1) and (b)(1), Supplemental Information To 
Be Furnished By Applicants For Facilities Under Subpart S.
    Form Number: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.

[[Page 17142]]

    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit 
institutions, and state, local or tribal government.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 3,788 respondents; 3,788 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: .25 minutes.
    Frequency of Response: One time reporting requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. 
Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 
U.S.C. 308(b).
    Total Annual Burden: 947 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: N/A.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: No questions of a 
confidential nature are asked.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this expiring 
information collection to the Office of Management and Budget during 
this comment period under delegated authority. The Commission 
inadvertently published a regular notice rather than a delegated notice 
announcing submission of this information collection at the end of the 
60 day comment period which was March 29, 2010 (75 FR 4077, January 26, 
2010). Therefore, the Commission is required to publish a 30 day notice 
following a regular notice. The Commission is reporting no change to 
the reporting requirement. However, there is a 1,436 hour reduction 
adjustment to the total annual burden hours since the last submission 
to the OMB in 2007. This reduction is due to 5,743 fewer respondents.
    This rule section requires that affected applicants to submit a 
list of any radio facilities they hold within 40 miles of the base 
station transmitter site being applied for. This information is used to 
determine if an applicant's proposed system is necessary in light of 
communications facilities it already owns. Such a determination helps 
the Commission to equitably distribute limited spectrum and prevents 
spectrum warehousing. The information is collected only once - upon 
initial license application.
