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 burden on small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees.

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens,

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 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 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 PRA comments should be submitted on or before July 7, 
2025. 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.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Cathy Williams, FCC, via email to 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#42121003022421216c252d34"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="5e0e0c1f1e383d3d70393128">[email&#160;protected]</span></a> and to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#afeccedbc7d681f8c6c3c3c6cec2dcefc9cccc81c8c0d9"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="6f2c0e1b07164138060303060e021c2f090c0c41080019">[email&#160;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: 3060-0779.
    Title: Sections 90.20(a)(1)(iii), 90.769, 90.767, 
90.763(b)(l)(i)(a), 90.763(b)(l)(i)(B), 90.771(b) and 90.743, Rules for 
Use of the 220 MHz Band by the Private Land Mobile Radio Service.
    Form Number: N/A.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities, not-for-profit 
institutions, and state, local or tribal government.
    Number of Respondents: 14 respondents; 74 responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 2 hours to 8 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and third-
party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. 
Statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 
47 U.S.C. 154(i), 303(g), 303(r) and 332(a).
    Total Annual Burden: 550 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $90,000.
    Needs and Uses: 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.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene Dortch,
Secretary.
