FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS
COMMISSION
Notice of Public Information
Collection(s) Being Reviewed by the
Federal Communications Commission
February 15, 2005.

effort to reduce paperwork burden
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collection(s), as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995, Public Law 104–13.
An agency 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
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that
does not display a valid control number.
Comments are requested concerning (a)
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;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) ways to
VerDate jul<14>2003

minimize the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before March 28, 2005.
If you anticipate that you will be
submitting PRA 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 Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) comments to
Judith B. Herman, Federal
Communications Commission, Room 1–
C804, 445 12th Street, SW., Washington,
DC 20554 or via the Internet to JudithB.Herman@fcc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
additional information or copies of the
information collection(s), contact Judith
B. Herman at 202–418–0214 or via the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control No.: 3060–0823.
Title: Pay Telephone Reclassification,
Memorandum Opinion and Order, CC
Docket No. 96–128.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents: 400.
Estimated Time Per Response: 2–35
hours.
Frequency of Response:
Recordkeeping requirement, third party
disclosure requirement, and on
occasion, monthly, and quarterly
reporting requirements.
Total Annual Burden: 44,700 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $480,000.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
seeking extension (no change in
requirements) for this information
collection. The Commission is
submitting this information collection to
the OMB in order to obtain the full
three-year clearance from them. For
background, the Commission adopted
and released a Memorandum Opinion
and Order in March 1998, which
clarified the requirements established in
the Payphones Orders for the provision
of payphone-specific coding digits and
for tariffs that local exchange carriers
(LECs) must file pursuant to the
Payphone Orders. The Commission also
granted a waiver of Part 69 of the
Commission’s rules so that LECs can
establish rate elements to recover the
costs of implementing FLEX–ANI (a
type of switch software) to provide
PO 00000
Frm 00047

payphone specific coding digits for percall compensation. The Commission is
required in the Payphone Orders to
implement section 276 of the Act.
OMB Control No.: 3060–0986.
Title: Competitive Carrier Line Count
Report.
Form No.: FCC Form 525.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents: 1,300
respondents; 4,753 responses.
Estimated Time Per Response: .5–6
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion,
quarterly and annual reporting
requirements and third party disclosure
requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 3,707 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The Commission has
revised this information collection. The
information collection has been revised
as a result of: (1) Certain collections
associated with the election of a
disaggregation path were one-time in
nature and have been eliminated and
removed from this burden estimate; and
(2) the Commission has created a new
FCC Form 525 to collect line count data
required by Competitive Eligible
Telecommunications Carriers (CETCs)
pursuant to this and other OMB control
numbers, as well as line count data
related to lines provided by CETCs
using unbundled network elements
(UNEs). The UNE data are necessary for
Universal Service Administrative
Company (USAC) to implement section
54.307 of the Commission’s rules. It is
anticipated that the implementation of
FCC Form 525 will reduce burdens in
several collections by standardizing the
information submission format. As
collections 3060–0972, 3060–0774 and
3060–0942 are renewed, the information
provided in FCC Form 525 will be
eliminated from the burden estimates
for these collections. The Commission
will use the information requirements to
determine whether and to what extent
rural telecommunications carriers
providing the data are eligible to receive
universal service support.
OMB Control No.: 3060–0298.

Total Annual Burden: 66,120 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
seeking extension (no change) to this
information collection. The Commission
is submitting this information collection
to the OMB in order to obtain the full
three-year clearance.
Part 61 of the Commission’s rules
establishes procedures for filing tariffs
which contain the charges, practices,
and regulations of the common carriers,
supporting economic data and other
related documents. The supporting data
must conform to other parts of the Rules
such as Parts 36 and 69. Part 61 also
prescribes the framework for the initial
establishment of and subsequent
revisions to tariffs. Tariffs that do not
conform to Part 61 may be required to
post their schedules or rates and
regulations. The information collected
through a carrier’s tariff is used by the
Commission to determine whether
services offered are just and reasonable
as the Act requires.
The tariffs and any supporting
documentation are examined in order to
determine if the services are offered in
a just and reasonable manner.

Title: Section 73.3613, Filing of
Contracts.
Form Number: Not applicable.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Not-for-profit
institutions.
Number of Respondents: 2,300.
Estimated Time per Response: 0.25 to

Recordkeeping requirement; On
occasion reporting requirement; Third
party disclosure requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 950 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $80,000.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Needs and Uses: In June 2003, the
Commission adopted changes to 47 CFR
73.3613 and the FCC’s attribution rules.
As a result, radio stations located in
Arbitron radio markets must now file
agreements for the sale of advertising
time (i.e., ‘‘Joint Sales Agreements’’ or
‘‘JSAs’’) that result in attribution under
the Commission’s multiple ownership
rules. 47 CFR 73.3613 requires licensees
of television and radio broadcast
stations to file with the Commission: (a)
Contracts relating to ownership or
control and personnel; and (b) time
PO 00000
Frm 00048
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
brokerage agreements that result in
arrangements being counted under the
Commission’s multiple ownership rules.
Television stations also must file
network affiliation agreements. This
section also requires certain contracts to
be retained at the station and made
available for inspection by the
Commission upon request.
On June 24, 2004, the Court issued an
Opinion and Judgment (‘‘Remand
Order’’) in which it upheld certain
aspects of the new ownership rules,
including the attribution of JSAs among
radio stations, while requiring further
explanation for certain other aspects of
the new rules. The Court stated that its
prior stay of the new rules would
remain in effect pending the outcome of
the remand proceeding. The
Commission has not yet responded to
the Remand Order, but in the meantime
the Commission filed a petition for
rehearing requesting that the Court lift
the stay partially—i.e., with respect to
the radio ownership and JSA attribution
rules which the Court’s Remand Order
upheld. On September 3, 2004, the
Court issued an Order (‘‘Rehearing
Order’’) which partially granted the
Commission’s petition for rehearing,
thus lifting the stay of the revised radio
ownership and JSA attribution rules. As
a result of the Rehearing Order, the
Commission’s revised radio ownership
and JSA attribution rules took effect on
September 3, 2004. Implementation of
the new radio ownership and JSA
attribution rules, as required by the
Rehearing Order, triggers the
requirement for certain licensees to
begin filing JSAs.
