334, 336 and 554.

impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
In general, there is no need for
confidentiality with this collection of
information.
Needs and Uses: The Federal
Communications Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is requesting that the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) approve a three-year extension of
the information collection titled ‘‘Part
73, Subpart F International Broadcast
Stations’’ under OMB Control No. 3060–
1035. This information collection is
used by the Commission to assign
frequencies for use by international
broadcast stations, to grant authority to
operate such stations and to determine
if interference or adverse propagation
conditions exist that may impact the
operation of such stations. The
Commission collects this information
pursuant to 47 CFR part 73, subpart F.
If the Commission did not collect this
information, it would not be in a
position to effectively coordinate
spectrum for international broadcasters
or to act for entities in times of
frequency interference or adverse
propagation conditions. Therefore, the
information collection requirements are
as follows:
FCC Form 309—Application for
Authority to Construct or Make Changes
in an International, Experimental
Television, Experimental Facsimile, or a
Developmental Broadcast Station—The
FCC Form 309 is filed on occasion when
the applicant is requesting authority to
construct or make modifications to the
international broadcast station.
FCC Form 310—Application for an
International, Experimental Television,
Experimental Facsimile, or a
Developmental Broadcast Station
License—The FCC Form 310 is filed on
occasion when the applicant is
submitting an application for a new
international broadcast station.
FCC Form 311—Application for
Renewal of an International or
Experimental Broadcast Station
License—The FCC Form 311 is filed by
applicants who are requesting renewal
of their international broadcast station
licenses.
47 CFR 73.702(a) states that six
months prior to the start of each season,
licensees and permittees shall by
informal written request, submitted to
the Commission in triplicate, indicate
for the season the frequency or
frequencies desired for transmission to
each zone or area of reception specified
in the license or permit, the specific
hours during which it desires to
transmit to such zones or areas on each
frequency, and the power, antenna gain,
and antenna bearing it desires to use.
Requests will be honored to the extent
that interference and propagation
conditions permit and that they are
otherwise in accordance with the
provisions of section 47 CFR 73.702(a).
47 CFR 73.702(b) states that two
months before the start of each season,
the licensee or permittee must inform
the Commission in writing as to
whether it plans to operate in
accordance with the Commission’s
authorization or operate in another
manner.
47 CFR 73.702(c) permits entities to
file requests for changes to their original
request for assignment and use of
frequencies if they are able to show
good cause. Because international
broadcasters are assigned frequencies on
a seasonal basis, as opposed to the full
term of their eight-year license
authorization, requests for changes need
to be filed by entities on occasion.
47 CFR 73.702 (note) states that
permittees who during the process of
construction wish to engage in
equipment tests shall by informal
written request, submitted to the
Commission in triplicate not less than
30 days before they desire to begin such
testing, indicate the frequencies they
desire to use for testing and the hours
they desire to use those frequencies.
47 CFR 73.702(e) states within 14
days after the end of each season, each
licensee or permittee must file a report
with the Commission stating whether
the licensee or permittee has operated
the number of frequency hours
authorized by the seasonal schedule to
each of the zones or areas of reception
specified in the schedule.
47 CFR 73.782 requires that licensees
retain logs of international broadcast
stations for two years. If it involves
communications incident to a disaster,
logs should be retained as long as
required by the Commission.
47 CFR 73.759(d) states that the
licensee or permittee must keep records
of the time and results of each auxiliary
transmitter test performed at least
weekly.
47 CFR 73.762(b) requires that
licensees notify the Commission in
writing of any limitation or
discontinuance of operation of not more
than 10 days.
47 CFR 73.762(c) states that the
licensee or permittee must request and
receive specific authority from the
Commission to discontinue operations
for more than 10 days under extenuating
circumstances.
47 CFR 1.1301–1.1319 cover
certifications of compliance with the
National Environmental Policy Act and
how the public will be protected from
radio frequency radiation hazards.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS
COMMISSION
[FR ID 26344]
Privacy Act of 1974; System of
Records
AGENCY
: Federal Communications
Commission
ACTION
: Notice of a new system of
records.
SUMMARY
: The Federal Communications
Commission (FCC, Commission, or
Agency) proposes to add a new system
of records, FCC/WCB–5, Robocall
Mitigation Database to its inventory of
records systems subject to the Privacy
Act of 1974, as amended. This action is
necessary to meet the requirements of
the Privacy Act to publish in the
Federal Register notice of the existence
and character of records maintained by
the Agency. The FCC requires voice
service providers to certify that they
have implemented the Secure
Telephone Identity Revisited and
Signature-based Handling of Asserted
Information Using toKENs (STIR/
SHAKEN) caller ID authentication
framework and/or a robocall mitigation
program. These certifications will be
uploaded to the Robocall Mitigation
Database and include the personally
identifiable information (PII) of
individual representatives of the service
providers, such as contact information.
Once service providers submit their
certifications to the FCC, the
certifications will then be made
available for download via a public
website to ensure transparency and
accountability for implementing
robocall mitigation programs.
DATES
: This system of records will
become effective on May 18, 2021.
Written comments on the routine uses
are due by June 17, 2021. The routine
