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(s). 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.

Information Collection Being Reviewed by the Federal
Communications Commission
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 collection(s). 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 should be submitted on or before June 10, 2024.
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 to
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#4e1e1c0f0e282d2d60292138"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="baeae8fbfadcd9d994ddd5cc">[email protected]</span></a> and to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#bdfedcc9d5c493ead4d1d1d4dcd0cefddbdede93dad2cb"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="581b392c3021760f3134343139352b183e3b3b763f372e">[email protected]</span></a>.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the
information collection, contact Cathy Williams at (202) 418-2918.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060-0874.
Title: Consumer Complaint Center: Informal Consumer Complaints.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or households; Business or other for-
profit entities; Not for profit institutions; State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Number of Respondents and Responses: 269,680 respondents; 269,680
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 15 minutes (.25 hour) to 1 hour.
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Voluntary. The statutory authority for this
collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 208 and 47 U.S.C. 1754(e).
Total Annual Burden: 68,000 hours.
Total Annual Cost: None.
Needs and Uses: The Commission consolidated all of the FCC informal
consumer complaint intake into an online consumer complaint portal,
which allows the Commission to better manage the collection of informal
consumer complaints. Informal consumer complaints consist of informal
consumer complaints, inquiries and comments. This revised information
collection requests OMB approval for the addition of a layer of
consumer reported complaint information related to digital
discrimination complaints. In addition, changes to certain complaint
forms to improve the clarity, ease of use and utility of the CCC.
This will allow the Commission to process consumer complaints more
efficiently and provide more detailed data to inform enforcement and
policy efforts.
