ACTION: Rescindment of a system of records notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FCC's Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (WTB) database
stores applications for radiotelephone (wireless) operator's licenses
or permits prior to the implementation of the FCC's universal licensing

personally identifiable information of individuals who voluntarily
submit their contact information to the WTB.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Privacy Act provides that an agency may
collect or maintain in its records
[[Page 63574]]
only information about individuals that is relevant and necessary to
accomplish a purpose that is required by a statute or executive order.
The FCC has determined that the FCC/WTB-5, Application Review List for
Present or Former Licensees, Operators, or Unlicensed Persons Operating
Radio Equipment, system of records no longer meets this standard,
because WTB no longer maintains the system's manual lists, nor has it
retained any paper files from this system. The lists are now contained
in an electronic alert list in the FCC/WTB-1, Wireless Services
Licensing Records, system of records. All of the paper records for this
system have been destroyed in accordance with the retention and
disposal provisions of the WTB-5 SORN. Therefore, the FCC proposes to
rescind FCC/WTB-5, Application Review List for Present or Former
Licensees, Operators, or Unlicensed Persons Operating Radio Equipment
Improperly.
SYSTEM NAME AND NUMBER:
FCC/WTB-5, Application Review List for Present or Former Licensees,
Operators, or Unlicensed Persons Operating Radio Equipment Improperly.
HISTORY:
71 FR 17271 (April 5, 2006).
Katura Jackson,
Federal Register Liaison Officer.
