Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 104 / Wednesday, June 1, 2005 / Notices Respondents: Individuals or households; Business or other for-profit; State, local, or tribal governments; and Not-for-profit institutions. Number of Respondents: 4,500. Estimated Time per Response: 0.5 hours. Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping; On occasion reporting requirement. Total Annual Burden: 2,250 hours. Total Annual Cost: N/A. Privacy Impact Assessment: Yes. Needs and Uses: In accordance with the Telecommunications Act of 1934, as amended, and Congressional requirements, the FCC is required to assess and collect regulatory fees from licensees and regulatees in order to recover its costs incurred in conducting enforcement, policy and rulemaking, international, and user information activities. The purpose of the requirements are to facilitate: (1) The statutory provisions that ‘‘non-profit entity’’ may be exempt from payment of regulatory fees, and (2) the FCC’s ability to audit regulatory fee payment information from all regulatees. The FCC must as estimate as accurately as possible the number of payment units and distribute the costs to develop a Regulatory Fee Schedule. These estimates must be adjusted to account for any licensee or regulatee that is exempt from payment of regulatory fees. Therefore, the FCC requires all licensees and regulates, which claim exemption as a non-profit entity, to provide onetime documentation sufficient to establish their non-profit status. Additionally, any newly licensed or operating non-profit entities must submit documentation of their exempt status within 60 days of receipt of the license, authorization, permit, or commencing operation. Further, the FCC is requesting that it be similarly notified if there are any status changes. Documentation that supports a regulatee’s exempt status as a non-profit includes, but is not limited to, an Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Determination Letter, a state charter granting indicating non-profit status, proof of church affiliation, articles of incorporation, and 501(c)(3) letters, et al. The FCC may require licensees to submit business data they used to calculate their regulatory fee payments to facilitate the Commission’s audit of regulatory fee payment compliance.
