FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

Information Collections 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 of 1995 (PRA), the
Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) 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.
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.
DATES: Written comments shall be submitted on or before November 18,
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 contacts below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Cathy Williams, FCC, via email:
[email protected] and to [email protected].

The Commission is requesting approval for an extension of
information collection 3060-0779. The collection includes rules to
govern the future operation and licensing of the 220-222 MHz and (220
MHz service). In establishing this licensing plan, FCC's goal is to
establish a flexible regulatory framework that allows for efficient
licensing of the 220 MHz service, eliminates unnecessary regulatory
burdens, and enhances the competitive potential of the 220 MHz service
in the mobile service marketplace. However, as with any licensing and
operational plan for a radio service, a certain number of regulatory
and information burdens are necessary to verify licensee compliance
with FCC rules.
