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, 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 December 
17, 2018. 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 to 
[email protected] and to [email protected].

[[Page 52451]]

a subscriber terminates service. The rules at 76.800 et seq., implement 
that directive. The intention of the rules is to clarify the status and 
provide for the disposition of existing cable operator-owned wiring in 
single family homes and multiple dwelling units upon the termination of 
a contract for cable service by the home owner or MDU owner. Section 
76.613(d) requires that when Multichannel Video Programming 
Distributors (MVPDs) cause harmful signal interference MVPDs may be 
required by the District Director and/or Resident Agent to prepare and 
submit a report regarding the cause(s) of the interference, corrective 
measures planned or taken, and the efficacy of the remedial measures.
