Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Not-for-profit institutions; and State, Local, or Tribal Government. Number of Respondents: 36 respondents; 36 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 1.5 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement. Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. Sections 154(i) and 309(j). Total Annual Burden: 54 hours. Total Annual Cost: $4,500. Privacy Impact Assessment: No impact(s). Needs and Uses: Section 90.621(b)(4) allows stations to be licensed at distances less than those prescribed in the Short-Spacing Separation Table where applicants ‘‘secure a waiver.’’ Applicants seeking a waiver in these circumstances are still required to submit with their application an interference analysis, based upon any of the generally-accepted terrain-based propagation models, demonstrating that PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 co-channel stations would receive the same or greater interference protection than provided in the Short-Spacing Separation Table. Section 90.621(b)(5) permits stations to be located closer than the required separation, so long as the applicant provides letters of concurrence indicating that the applicant and each co-channel licensee within the specified separation agree to accept any interference resulting from the reduced separation between systems. Applicants are still required to file such concurrence letters with the Commission. Additionally, the Commission did not eliminate filings required by provisions such as international agreements, its environmental (National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA)) rules, its antenna structure registration rules, or quiet zone notification/filing procedures. Section 90.693 requires that 800 MHz incumbent Specialized Mobile Radio (SMR) service licensees ‘‘notify the Commission within 30 days of any changes in technical parameters or additional stations constructed that fall within the short-spacing criteria.’’ It has been standard practice for incumbents to notify the Commission of all changes and additional stations constructed in cases where such stations are in fact located less than the required 70 mile distance separation, and are therefore technically ‘‘short-spaced,’’ but are in fact fully compliant with the parameters of the Commission’s Short-Spacing Separation Table. The Commission uses this information to determine whether to grant licenses to applicants making ‘‘minor modifications’’ to their systems which do not satisfy mileage separation requirements pursuant to the ShortSpacing Separation Table. OMB Control Number: 3060–0297. Title: Section 80.503, Cooperative Use of Facilities. Form Number: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Not-for-profit institutions; and State, Local, or Tribal Government. Number of Respondents: 100 respondents; 100 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 16 hours. Frequency of Response: Occasion reporting requirement and Recordkeeping requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
