Abstract

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 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 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.

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 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

quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; ways to

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.

2022. 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.

<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#08585a49486e6b6b266f677e"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="08585a49486e6b6b266f677e">[email&#160;protected]</span></a> and to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#195a786d7160374e7075757078746a597f7a7a377e766f"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b8fbd9ccd0c196efd1d4d4d1d9d5cbf8dedbdb96dfd7ce">[email&#160;protected]</span></a>.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No.: 3060-0626.
    Title: Section 90.483, Permissible Methods and Requirements of 
Interconnecting Private and Public Systems of Communications.
    Form No.: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business of other for-profit entities.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 100 respondents; 100 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirements; Third 
party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The 
statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 
Sections 4(i), 11, 303(g), 303(r), and 332(c)(7) of the Communications 
Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 161, 303(g), 303(r), 
332(c)(7).
    Total Annual Burden: 100 hours.
    Annual Cost Burden: No cost.
    Needs and Uses: When a frequency is shared by more than one system, 
automatic monitoring equipment must be installed at the base station to 
prevent activation of the transmitter when signals of co-channel 
stations are present and activation would interfere with communications 
in progress. Licensees may operate without the monitoring equipment if 
they have obtained the consent of all co-channel licensees located 
within a 120 kilometer (75 mile) radius of the interconnected base 
station transmitter. A statement must be submitted to the Commission 
indicating that all co-channel licensees have consented to operate 
without the monitoring equipment. This information is necessary to 
ensure that licensees comply with the Commission's technical and 
operational rules, and to prevent activation of the transmitter when 
signals of co-channel stations are present and could possibly interfere 
with communications in process.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene Dortch,
Secretary, Office of the Secretary.
