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.

Communications Commission Under Delegated Authority
AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

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 July 9, 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.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060-1050.
Title: Section 97.303, Frequency Sharing Requirements.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or households.
Number of Respondents: 5,000 respondents; 5,000 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 20 minutes (.33 hours).
Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47
U.S.C. 151, 154, 301, 302(a) and 303(c), and (f) of the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended.
Total Annual Burden: 1,650 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Needs and Uses: The Commission established a recordkeeping
procedure in section 97.303(s) that required that amateur operator
licensees using other antennas must maintain in their station records
either manufacturer data on the antenna gain or calculations of the
antenna gain.
The amateur radio service governed by 47 CFR part 97 of the
Commission's rules, provides spectrum for amateur radio service
licensees to participate in a voluntary noncommercial communication
service which provides emergency communications and allows
experimentation with various radio techniques and technologies to
further the understanding of radio use and the development of
technologies. The information collection is used to calculate the
effective radiated power (ERP) that the station is transmitting to
ensure that ERP does not exceed 100 W PEP.

Secretary, Office of the Secretary.
