Upon completion it will be posted at: https://www.fcc.gov/general/privacyact-information#pia. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The FCC is not requesting that VerDate Sep<11>2014 14:10 Feb 22, 2017 Jkt 241001 respondents submit confidential information to the Commission. If the FCC requests that respondents submit information which respondents believe is confidential, respondents may request confidential treatment of such information pursuant to Section 0.459 of the FCC’s rules, 47 CFR 0.459. The FCC has a system of records, FCC/OMD–25, Financial Operations Information System (FOIS), to cover the collection, purpose(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal of the personally identifiable information (PII) that individual respondents may submit on FCC Form 160, which is posted at: https:// www.fcc.gov/general/privacy-actinformation#systems. The FCC will also redact PII submitted on this form before it makes FCC Form 160 available for public inspection. FCC Form 160 includes a ‘‘privacy statement’’ to inform applicants (respondents) of the FCC’s need to obtain the information and the protections that the FCC has in place to protect PII. Needs and Uses: The Commission is revising Form 160 to include Restricted Use FRNs. These FRNs are created in the FCC’s Commission Registration System (CORES) and are used only for Form 323, Ownership Report for Commercial Broadcast Station (OMB Control No. 3060–0010) and Form 323– E, Ownership Report for Noncommercial Educational Broadcast Station (OMB Control No. 3060–0084). Registering for a Restricted Use FRN will require the same information as other FRNs with the following differences: respondents will be required to enter a date of birth and only the last four digits of the Social Security Number. Respondents use FCC Form 160 to register in CORES. When registering, the respondent receives a unique FCC Registration Number (FRN), which is required for anyone doing business with the Commission. Respondents may also register in CORES on-line at https:// apps.fcc.gov/cores. FCC Form 160 is used to collect information that pertains to the entity’s name, address, contact representative, telephone number, email address(es), and fax number. The Commission uses this information to collect or report on any delinquent debt arising from the respondent’s business dealings with the FCC, including both ‘‘feeable’’ and ‘‘nonfeeable’’ services; and to ensure that registrants (respondents) receive any refunds due. Use of the CORES System is also a means of ensuring that the Commission operates in compliance with the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 PO 00000 Frm 00029 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 (DCCA), Public Law 104–134, Chapter 10, Section 31001.

    Total Annual Burden: 15,531 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: None.
    Privacy Impact Assessment: The Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) 
covering the PII in the CORES information system is being updated. Upon 
completion it will be posted at: https://www.fcc.gov/general/privacy-act-information#pia.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The FCC is not requesting 
that respondents submit confidential information to the Commission. If 
the FCC requests that respondents submit information which respondents 
believe is confidential, respondents may request confidential treatment 
of such information pursuant to Section 0.459 of the FCC's rules, 47 
CFR 0.459. The FCC has a system of records, FCC/OMD-25, Financial 
Operations Information System (FOIS), to cover the collection, 
purpose(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal of the personally 
identifiable information (PII) that individual respondents may submit 
on FCC Form 160, which is posted at: https://www.fcc.gov/general/privacy-act-information#systems.
    The FCC will also redact PII submitted on this form before it makes 
FCC Form 160 available for public inspection. FCC Form 160 includes a 
``privacy statement'' to inform applicants (respondents) of the FCC's 
need to obtain the information and the protections that the FCC has in 
place to protect PII.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission is revising Form 160 to include 
Restricted Use FRNs. These FRNs are created in the FCC's Commission 
Registration System (CORES) and are used only for Form 323, Ownership 
Report for Commercial Broadcast Station (OMB Control No. 3060-0010) and 
Form 323-E, Ownership Report for Noncommercial Educational Broadcast 
Station (OMB Control No. 3060-0084). Registering for a Restricted Use 
FRN will require the same information as other FRNs with the following 
differences: respondents will be required to enter a date of birth and 
only the last four digits of the Social Security Number.
    Respondents use FCC Form 160 to register in CORES. When 
registering, the respondent receives a unique FCC Registration Number 
(FRN), which is required for anyone doing business with the Commission. 
Respondents may also register in CORES on-line at https://apps.fcc.gov/cores. FCC Form 160 is used to collect information that pertains to the 
entity's name, address, contact representative, telephone number, email 
address(es), and fax number. The Commission uses this information to 
collect or report on any delinquent debt arising from the respondent's 
business dealings with the FCC, including both ``feeable'' and 
``nonfeeable'' services; and to ensure that registrants (respondents) 
receive any refunds due. Use of the CORES System is also a means of 
ensuring that the Commission operates in compliance with the Debt 
Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (DCCA), Public Law 104-134, Chapter

    On November 19, 2010, the FCC adopted a Notice of Proposed 
Rulemaking (NPRM), MD Docket No. 10-234, FCC 10-192, Amendment of Part 
1 of the Commission's Rules Concerning Practice and Procedure,

some of the FCC's exceptions to the requirement that entities and 
individuals provide their Taxpayer Identification Number (``TIN'') at 
the time of registration; require FRN holders to provide their email 
address(es); give FRN holders the option to identify multiple points of 
contact; and require FRN holders to indicate their tax-exempt status 
and notify the Commission of pending bankruptcy proceedings. All 
remaining existing information collection requirements would stay as 
they are.

    OMB Control Number: 3060-0918.
    Title: CORES Update/Change Form, FCC Form 161.
    Form Number: FCC Form 161.

    Respondents: Businesses or other for-profit entities; individuals 
or households; not-for-profit institutions; and State, Local, or Tribal 
Governments.

responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 10 minutes (0.167 hours).

    Total Annual Burden: 13,360 hours.
    Total Annual Costs: None.
    Privacy Impact Assessment: The Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) 
covering the PII in the CORES information system is being updated. Upon 
completion it will be posted at: https://www.fcc.gov/general/privacy-act-information#pia.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The FCC is not requesting 
that respondents submit confidential information to the Commission. If 
the FCC requests that respondents submit information which respondents 
believe is confidential, respondents may request confidential treatment 
of such information pursuant to Section 0.459 of the FCC's rules, 47 
CFR 0.459. The FCC has a system of records, FCC/OMD-25, Financial 
Operations Information

[[Page 11455]]

System (FOIS), to cover the collection, purpose(s), storage, 
safeguards, and disposal of the personally identifiable information 
(PII) that individual respondents may submit on FCC Form 161, which is 
posted at: https://www.fcc.gov/general/privacy-act-information#systems.
    The FCC will also redact PII submitted on this form before it makes 
Start Printed Page 41797FCC Form 161 available for public inspection. 
FCC Form 161 includes a ``privacy statement'' to inform applicants 
(respondents) of the FCC's need to obtain the information and the 
protections that the FCC has in place to protect PII.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission is revising Form 161 to include 
Restricted Use FRNs. These FRNs are created in the FCC's Commission 
Registration System (CORES) and are used only for Form 323, Ownership 
Report for Commercial Broadcast Station (OMB Control No. 3060-0010) and 
Form 323-E, Ownership Report for Noncommercial Educational Broadcast 
Station (OMB Control No. 3060-0084). Registering for a Restricted Use 
FRN will require the same information as other FRNs with the following 
differences: respondents will be required to enter a date of birth and 
only the last four digits of the Social Security Number.
    After respondents have registered in CORES and have been issued a 
FCC Registration Number (FRN), they may use FCC Form 161 to update and/
or change their contact information, including name, address, telephone 
number, email address(es), fax number, contact representative, contact 
representative's address, telephone number, email address, and/or fax 
number. Respondents may also update their registration information in 
CORES on-line at https://apps.fcc.gov/cores. The Commission uses this 
information to collect or report on any delinquent debt arising from 
the respondent's business dealings with the FCC, including both 
``feeable'' and ``nonfeeable'' services; and to ensure that registrants 
(respondents) receive any refunds due. Use of the CORES System is also 
a means of ensuring that the Commission operates in compliance with the 
Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996.
