SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a 
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid Office 
of Management and Budget (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.
    As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, and 
as required by the PRA of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), the FCC 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.

Commission has no direct involvement. Personally identifiable 
information (PII) is not being collected by, made available to, or made 
accessible by the Commission. There are no additional impacts under the 
Privacy Act.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: In general there is no need

    Needs and Uses: On June 2, 2014, the Commission released a Report 
and Order, FCC 14-50, GN Docket No. 12-268, ``Expanding the Economic 
and Innovation Opportunities of Spectrum Through Incentive Auctions.'' 
This order adopted a revision to a Commission rule, 47 CFR 74.802(b), 
to permit low power auxiliary stations (LPAS), including wireless 
microphones, to operate in the bands allocated for TV broadcasting at 
revised distances from a co-channel television's contour, and provided 
LPAS operators to operate even closer to television stations proved 
that any such operations are coordinated with TV broadcast stations 
that could be affected by the LPAS operations.
    The Commission seeks Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval 
for an extension of the currently approved information collection for 
the coordination process adopted in the Commission's Report and Order, 
FCC 14-50 for such co-channel operations, in 47 CFR 74.802d(b)(2).

Federal Communications Commission.
