Abstract
As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or the 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 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 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number.

to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information
subject to the PRA that does not display a valid Office of Management

The FCC established a Coordination Zone for new and modified radio
facilities in various communications services that cover the islands of
Puerto Rico, Desecheo, Mona, Vieques, and Culebra within the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. The coordination zone and notification
procedures enable the Arecibo Radio Astronomy Observatory to receive
information needed to assess whether an applicant's proposed operations
will cause harmful interference to the Arecibo Observatory's
operations, which also promotes efficient resolution of coordination
problems between the applicants and the Arecibo Observatory.
