FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

[OMB 3060-0783]


Information Collection Being Reviewed by the Federal 
Communications Commission Under Delegated Authority

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, the 
Federal Communications Commission (FCC or the Commission) invites the 
general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to 
comment on the following information collection. 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 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 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number.

DATES: Written PRA comments should be submitted on or before November 
13, 2017. 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 Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email 
[email protected] and to [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the 
information collection, contact Nicole Ongele at (202) 418-2991.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  As part of its continuing effort to reduce 
paperwork burdens, and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)

(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

    OMB Control Number: 3060-0783.
    Title: Section 90.176, Coordination Notification Requirements on 
Frequencies Below 512 MHz, at 769-775/799-805 MHz, or at 1427-1432 MHz.
    Form No.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 13 respondents; 3,380 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 0.5 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 (IC) is contained 
in sections 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 161, 303(g), 303(r) and 332(c)(7) of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended.
    Total Annual Burden: 1,690 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: No cost.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for 
confidentiality.
    Needs and Uses: This collection will be submitted as an extension 
after this 60 day comment period to Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) in order to obtain the full three-year clearance.
    Section 90.176 requires each Private Land Mobile frequency 
coordinator to provide, within one business day, a listing of their 
frequency recommendations to all other frequency coordinators in their 
respective pool, and if requested, an engineering analysis.
    Any method can be used to ensure this compliance with the ``one 
business day requirement'' and must provide, at a minimum, the name of 
the applicant; frequency or frequencies recommended; antenna locations 
and heights; and effective radiated power; the type(s) of emissions; 
the description of the service area; and the date and time of the 
recommendation. If a conflict in recommendations arises, the effected 
coordinators are jointly responsible for taking action to resolve the 
conflict, up to and including notifying the Commission that an 
application may have to be returned.
    This requirement seeks to avoid situations where harmful 
interference is created because two or more coordinators recommend the 
same frequency in the same area at approximately the same time to 
different applicants.

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary, Office of the Secretary.
