FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION


Notice of Public Information Collection(s) Being Submitted for 
Review and Approval to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), 
Comments Requested

December 21, 2010.
SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden 
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501-3520), the Federal Communications Commission invites the general 
public and other Federal agencies to comment on the following 
information collection. 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 OMB 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 OMB control number.

DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be 
submitted on or before January 31, 2011. If you anticipate that you 
will be submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within 
the period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the FCC 
contact listed below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Nicholas A. Fraser, Office of 
Management and Budget, via fax at 202-395-5167 or the Internet at 
[email protected]; and to the Federal Communications 
Commission's PRA mailbox (e-mail address: [email protected].). Include in the 
e-mail the OMB control number of the collection as shown in the 
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section below, or if there is no OMB control 
number, include the Title as shown in the  SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION 
section. If you are unable to submit your comments by e-mail, contact 
the person listed below to make alternate arrangements.

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060-0698.
    Title: Sections 25.203(i) and 73.1030(a)(2), Radio Astronomy 
Coordination Zone in Puerto Rico.
    Form No.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit 
institutions, and State, local or tribal government.
    Number of Respondents: 200 respondents; 1,000 responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 5-40 minutes (.0833 hours to .667 
hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and third 
party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. 
Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 
U.S.C. sections 154(i), 303(f), 303(r), and 309(j)(13).
    Total Annual Burden: 142 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: N/A.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for 
confidentiality.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this expiring 
information collection (IC) to the OMB during this comment period. The 
Commission is seeking OMB approval for a revision. The Commission is 
reporting a 114 hour program change decrease to the total burden hour 
estimate. The revision is because 47 CFR section 23.20 has been removed 
from this information collection since the last time OMB approved this 
information collection.
    The Commission adopted and released a Report and Order, IB Docket 
No. 05-216, FCC 10-7, which eliminated Part 23 rules because there were 
no International Fixed Public Radiocommunications Services (IFPRS) 
licenses in operation.
    The information collected is used to facilitate coordination 
between the Observatory and Commission-licensed services in the 
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Applicants for new or modified radio 
communication facilities within the Coordination Zone are required to 
submit technical information concerning the applicant's proposed 
services to enable the Observatory to determine the potential for 
interference with its operations. The Observatory will perform 
interference evaluations at no cost to the applicants. If potential 
interference problems are identified, applicants are required to make 
reasonable attempts to resolve or mitigate such problems in order to 
protect the Observatory.

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary.
