    As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, as 
required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-
3520), the FCC invited the general public and other Federal Agencies to 
take this opportunity to comment on the following information 
collection. Comments are requested concerning: (a) 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; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's 
burden estimates; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity 
of the information collected; and (d) 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. Pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 
2002, Public Law 107-198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4), the FCC seeks 
specific comment on how it might further reduce the information 
collection burden for small business concerns with fewer than 25 
employees.

    Form No.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit, non-for-profit 
institutions, and State, local and Tribal government.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 34,000 respondents, 34,000 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: .25 up to .75 hours.
    Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement and on occasion 
reporting requirement.
    Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The 
statutory authority for this collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 
154(i), 161, 303(g), 303(r) and 332(c)(7).
    Total Annual Burden: 34,000 hours.

    Needs and Uses: The Commission was directed by the United States 
Congress, in the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, to dedicate 2.4 MHz of 
electromagnetic spectrum in the 746-806 MHz band for public safety 
services. Section 90.179 requires that Part 90 licensees that share use 
of their private land mobile radio facility on non-profit, cost-sharing 
basis to prepare and keep a written sharing agreement as part of the 
station records. Regardless of the method of sharing, an up-to-date 
list of persons who are sharing the station and the basis of their 
eligibility under Part 90 must be maintained. The requirement is 
necessary to identify users of the system should interference problems 
develop. This information is used by the Commission to investigate 
interference complaints and resolve interference and operational 
complaints that may arise among the users.
