FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

47 CFR Part 1

[WC Docket No. 07-267; FCC 09-56]


Forbearance Petition Filing Requirements

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Final rule; confirmation of effective date.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On August 6, 2009, the Commission published a final rule 
adopting procedural rules to govern petitions for forbearance filed 
pursuant to section 10 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. 
One section within that document could not take effect until the Office 
of Management and Budget (OMB) had approved the associated information 
collection requirements. OMB approved those information collection 
requirements on April 5, 2010, under OMB Control Number 3060-1138. This 
document confirms the effective date of that rule.

DATES: 47 CFR 1.54, published at 74 FR 39219, August 6, 2009, is 
effective March 28, 2011.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jonathan Reel, Competition Policy 
Division, Wireline Competition Bureau, at 202-418-1885 or e-mail:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document announces that, on April 5, 
2010, OMB approved, for a period of three years, the information 
collection requirements contained in the Commission's ``complete as 
filed rule'' for forbearance petitions under section 10 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended. The Commission adopted that 
rule in its Forbearance Procedures Order. The rule is codified at 47 
CFR 1.54. This notice confirms that the Commission received OMB 
approval for that collection on April 5, 2010 (OMB Control Number is 
3060-1138).
    Under 5 CFR part 1320, an agency may not conduct or sponsor a 
collection of information unless it displays a current, 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 that does not display a current, valid OMB Control 
Number. Questions concerning OMB Control Number 3060-1138 and its 
expiration date should be directed to Judith Boley-Herman, Federal 
Communications Commission, Room 1-B441, 445 12th Street, SW., 
Washington, DC.
