FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

[OMB 3060-1079]


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 August 16, 
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.

    Obligation to Respond: Mandatory. Statutory authority for this 
information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 301, 302, 
303(e), 303(f) and 303(r).
    Total Annual Burden: 200 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: No cost.

    Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this expiring 
information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
after this 60 day comment period in order to obtain the three year 
clearance. Section 15.240 requires each grantee of certification for 
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Equipment to register the 
location of the equipment/devices its markets with the Commission. The 
information that the grantee must supply to the Commission when 
registering the device(s) shall include the name, address and other 
pertinent contact information of users, the geographic coordinates of 
the operating location, and the FCC identification number(s) of the 
equipment. The improved RFID equipment could benefit commercial 
shippers and have significant homeland security benefits by enabling 
the entire contents of shipping containers to be easily and immediately 
identified, and by allowing a determination of whether tampering with 
their contents has occurred during shipping.
