FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

[OMB 3060-1189]


Information Collection Being Reviewed by the Federal 
Communications Commission

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

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

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, 
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501-3520), the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) 
invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this 
opportunity to comment on the following information collections. 
Comments are requested concerning: 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; the accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 
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 ways to further reduce the 
information collection burden on 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 PRA that does not display a valid OMB 
control number.

DATES: Written PRA comments should be submitted on or before April 6, 
2015. If you anticipate that you will be submitting comments, but find 
it difficult to do so within the period of time allowed by this notice, 
you should advise the contact listed below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Cathy Williams, FCC, via email 
[email protected] and to [email protected].

    Total Annual Burden: 324,470 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: No cost.
    Privacy Impact Assessment: This information collection affects 
individuals or households; thus, there are impacts under the Privacy 
Act. However, the government is not directly collecting this 
information and the R&O directs carriers to protect the information to 
the extent it is considered Customer Proprietary Network Information 
(CPNI).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for 
confidentiality with this collection of information.
    Needs and Uses: On September 19, 2014, the Federal Communications 
Commission (Commission or FCC) adopted an Order on Reconsideration in 
WT Docket No. 10-4, FCC No. 14-138, in which it took the following 
action, among others: Required that Consumer Signal Boosters certified 
for fixed operation only be labeled to notify consumers that such 
devices may only be used in fixed, in-building locations. Therefore, 
the new labeling requirement which requires OMB review and approval is 
as follows:
    The labeling requirement is covered under 47 section 
20.21(f)(1)(iv)(A)(2). The new requirement is needed in order to ensure 
that consumers are properly informed about which devices are suitable 
for their use and how to comply with our rules, the Commission required 
that all Consumer Signal Boosters certified for fixed, in-building 
operation include a label directing consumers that the device may only 
be operated in a fixed, in-building location. The Verizon Petitioners 
state that this additional labeling requirement is necessary to inform 
purchasers of fixed Consumer Signal Boosters that they may not lawfully 
be installed and operated in a moving vehicle or outdoor location. We 
recognize that our labeling requirement imposes additional costs on 
entities that manufacture Consumer Signal Boosters; however, on 
balance, we find that such costs are outweighed by the benefits of 
ensuring that consumers purchase appropriate devices. Accordingly, all 
fixed Consumer Signal Boosters, both Provider-Specific and Wideband, 
manufactured or imported on or after one year from the effective date 
of the rule change must include the following advisory (1) in on-line 
point-of-sale marketing materials, (2) in any print or on-line owner's 
manual and installation instructions, (3) on the outside packaging of 
the device, and (4) on a label affixed to the device: ``This device may 
be operated ONLY in a fixed location for in-building use.''
