FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

[OMB 3060-0799]


Information Collection Requirement 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 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 July 29, 
2019. 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]. Include in the comments the 
Title as shown in the Supplementary Information section below.

    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: In general there is no need 
for confidentiality. On a case by case basis, the Commission may be 
required to withhold from disclosure certain information about the 
location, character, or ownership of a historic property, including 
traditional religious sites.
    Needs and Uses: The FCC Form 602 is necessary to obtain the 
identity of the filer and to elicit information required by Section 
1.2112 of the Commission's rules regarding: (1) Persons or entities 
holding a 10 percent or greater direct or indirect ownership interest 
or any general partners in a general partnership holding a direct or 
indirect ownership interest in the applicant (``Disclosable Interest 
Holders''); and (2) All FCC-regulated entities in which the filer or 
any of its Disclosable Interest Holders owns a 10 percent or greater 
interest. The data collected on the FCC Form 602 includes the FCC 
Registration Number (FRN), which serves as a ``common link'' for all 
filings an entity has with the FCC. The Debt Collection Improvement Act 
of 1996 requires that entities filing with the Commission use an FRN. 
The FCC Form 602 was designed for, and must be filed electronically by, 
all licensees that hold licenses in auctionable services.
    The FCC Form 602 is comprised of the Main Form containing 
information regarding the filer and the Schedule A is used to collect 
ownership data pertaining to the Disclosable Interest Holder(s). Each 
Disclosable Interest Holder will have a separate Schedule A.
    Thus, a filer will submit its FCC Form 602 with multiple copies of 
Schedule A, as necessary, to list each Disclosable Interest Holder and 
associated information.

Federal Communications Commission.
