Procedural Matters
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 Analysis: This document does not
contain new or modified information collections subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521. In
addition, therefore, it does not contain any new or modified
information collection burden for small business concerns with fewer
than 25 employees, pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act
of 2002, 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4).
Congressional Review Act: The Commission has determined, and the
Administrator of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget concurs, that this rule is ``non-
major'' under the Congressional Review Act, 5 U.S.C. 804(2). The
Commission will send a copy of this Direct Final Rule to Congress and
the Government Accountability Office pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
Synopsis
1. This Direct Final Rule continues our efforts to modernize our
regulatory framework by rescinding certain wireless rules and
requirements in parts 1, 13, 17, 20, 22, 24, 26, 27, 30, 54, 74, 80,
87, 88, 90, 95, 96, 97, and 101. In this proceeding, we have undertaken
a sweeping review eventually aimed at eliminating outdated rules,
reducing unnecessary regulatory burdens, accelerating infrastructure
deployment, promoting network modernization, and spurring innovation.
Our objective is to streamline, simplify, and smartly deregulate across
multiple fronts simultaneously to better serve the public and support
technological progress.
2. In initiating this proceeding, we generally sought to identify
rules that are outdated, obsolete, unlawful, anticompetitive, or
otherwise no longer in the public interest. In this item, we
specifically focus on the repeal of certain wireless rules in various
parts for which prior notice and comment are unnecessary, but for which
we elect to provide an opportunity for input on that assessment. Absent
any significant adverse comments in response to this Direct Final Rule,
these rules will be repealed.
3. Good Cause to Forgo Notice and Comment. Under the Administrative
Procedure Act (APA), when an agency for good cause finds that notice
and public comment ``are impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary to the
public interest,'' it need not follow notice and comment procedures
before modifying or repealing rules. Prior notice and comment are
``unnecessary'' when `` `the administrative rule is a routine
determination, insignificant in nature and impact, and inconsequential
to the industry and to the public.' ''
4. We have identified approximately 396 rule provisions and rule
parts, totaling 58,218 words and covering approximately 137 pages in
the Code of Federal Regulations, that plainly no longer serve the
public interest because they have sunset by operation of law; \1\
govern an expired event; \2\ regulate an
[[Page 57700]]
obsolete technology; \3\ regulate virtually a null set of FCC
licensees; \4\ regulate an outdated market structure; \5\ are no longer
used in practice by the FCC or licensees; \6\ or are otherwise
duplicative,

[[Page 57702]]
5. Accordingly, it is ordered, pursuant to section 4(i) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), and 0.331 and
1.3 of the Commission's rules, 47 CFR 0.331 and 1.3, that the June 5,
2023 date included within Sec. 20.19(b) is extended to December 5,
2023.
6. Direct Final Rule Process. In this Direct Final Rule, we follow
the processes previously outlined by the Commission regarding direct
final rules, which we briefly summarize here. At times when the
Commission has found prior notice and comment unnecessary before
modifying or repealing rules, it simply adopted the relevant rule
change without any additional process. Although we reserve the right to
proceed in that manner, we elect in this decision to proceed using what
is known as a ``direct final rule'' process. By proceeding through a
direct final rule, the Commission chooses to provide expanded
opportunities for public comment when it is not legally required to do
so under the ``good cause'' standard. Under a direct final rule
process, rule changes are adopted without prior notice and comment, but
accompanied by an opportunity for the public to file comments--and if
we conclude that significant adverse comments have been filed, the
relevant rule changes would not take effect until after a full notice
and comment process.
7. In particular, we will publish this item adopting direct final
rules in the Federal Register, and allow for comment from interested
parties within 20 days of Federal Register publication. Until 20 days
after Federal Register publication, this shall be a ``permit-but-
disclose'' proceeding for purposes of our ex parte rules. Because this
comment process is directed toward the discrete objective of the direct
final rule process, and to avoid unwarranted delay in that process, we
prohibit filings addressing the rule changes contemplated in this
Direct Final Rule more than 20 days after Federal Register publication,
absent further direction from the Commission published in the Federal
Register. This both accords with the purpose of the comment process for
direct final rules, and is similar (though not identical) to actions
the Commission has taken in other contexts to provide a defined end-
point for public filings to enable the Commission to focus its
attention on the submissions already before it.
8. The direct final rules will be effective 60 days after Federal
Register publication. To the extent that the Commission receives
comments on these direct final rules, we will evaluate whether they are
significant adverse comments that warrant further procedures before
changing the rules. In our assessment, we plan to be guided by ACUS's
recommendation that ``[a]n agency should consider any comment received
during direct final rulemaking to be a significant adverse comment if
the comment explains why: a. The [direct final] rule would be
inappropriate, including challenges to the rule's underlying premise or
approach; or b. The [direct final] rule would be ineffective or
unacceptable without a change.''
9. In the event that we conclude that significant adverse comments
have been filed, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (WTB) will
publish a timely withdrawal in the Federal Register so that this Direct
Final Rule does not become effective until any appropriate additional
procedures have been followed. If significant adverse comments are
filed only with respect to a subset of the rule revisions addressed by
this Direct Final Rule, WTB will withdraw the portions of the Direct
Final Rule that were subject to significant adverse comments. For
example, if a significant adverse comment is filed regarding a single
rule within a direct final rule addressing multiple rules, we will
publish a withdrawal addressing only that rule.
10. In the event that no comments are filed in response to this
Direct Final Rule, we do not anticipate publishing a confirmation of
the effective date in the Federal Register, but simply will allow the
rule changes to take effect as originally specified. Where comments are
filed, but none of the comments are significant adverse comments, where
warranted by the record WTB will issue a Public Notice that will
briefly explain why any comments filed were not determined to be
significant adverse comments.
Ordering Clauses
11. Accordingly, it is ordered that, pursuant to sections 4(i),
4(j), and 303(r)
[[Page 57703]]
of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), (j),
303(r), this Direct Final Rule is adopted. Except as specified below,
this Direct Final Rule shall be effective upon Federal Register
publication of the rule changes set forth in the Appendix, which also
shall serve as the date of public notice of that action.
12. It is further ordered that the amendments of the Commission's
rules as set forth in the Appendix shall be effective 60 days after
Federal Register publication. In the event that significant adverse
comments are filed, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau shall
publish a timely document in the Federal Register withdrawing the rule
so that the rule change does not become effective until any additional
procedures have been followed. In the event that significant adverse
comments are filed with respect to only a subset of the rule revisions,
we direct the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau to publish a timely
document in the Federal Register withdrawing only such rule so that the
rule change does not become effective until any additional procedures
have been followed.
13. It is further ordered that the Office of the Managing Director,
Performance Program Management, shall send a copy of this Direct Final
Rule in a report to be sent to Congress and the Government
Accountability Office pursuant to the Congressional Review Act, 5
U.S.C. 801(a)(1)(A).
