<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 239 / Wednesday, December 14, 2005 / Notices
Respondents: Individuals or
households, business or other for profit
and Federal Government.
Number of Respondents: 2,000.
Estimated Time Per Response: .5
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement and third party
disclosure requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 1,000 hours.
Annual Cost Burden: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: This information
collection is necessary to require owners
of marine VHF radios with Digital
Selective Calling (DSC) capability to
register information such as name,
address, type of vessel with a private
entity issuing marine mobile service
identities (MMSI). The information
would be used by search and rescue
personnel to identify vessels in distress
and to select the proper rescue units and
search methods. The information is
used by the private entities to maintain
a database used to provide information
about the vessel owner in distress using
marine VHF radios with DSC capability.
If the collection were not conducted, the
U.S. Coast Guard would not have access
to this information which would
increase the time needed to complete a
search and rescue operation.
OMB Control No.: 3060–0936.
Title: Section 95.1215, Disclosure
Policies and Section 95.1217, Labeling
Requirements.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for
profit and not-for-profit institutions.
Number of Respondents: 20.
Estimated Time Per Response: 1 hour.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 20 hours.
Annual Cost Burden: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requires manufacturers of
transmitters for the Medical Implant
Communications Service (MICS) to
include with each transmitting device a
statement regarding harmful
interference and to label the device in
a conspicuous location on the device.
The requirements will allow use of
potential life-saving medical technology
without causing interference to other
users of the 402–405 MHz band.
OMB Control No.: 3060–1004.
Title: Revision of the Commission’s
Rules to Ensure Compatibility with
Enhanced 911 Emergency Calling
Systems.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.

Jkt 208001
Respondents: Business or other for
profit, not-for-profit institutions, and
state, local or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 50
respondents; 213 responses.
Estimated Time Per Response: 5
hours.
Frequency of Response: Quarterly,
semi-annual and one-time reporting
requirements, third party disclosure
requirement and recordkeeping
requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 1,202 hours.
Annual Cost Burden: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
sought and received emergency OMB
approval for this collection. However,
since OMB only grants emergency OMB
approval for six months, the
Commission is seeking extension of this
information collection (no change in
requirements) in order to obtain the full
three year clearance from OMB.
The Commission released an order
(FCC 05–181) finding that certain Tier
III carriers did not sufficiently support
their requests for waiver of the E911
rules, but providing the carriers with
additional time, until July 21, 2006, to
augment the record to show a clear path
to full compliance with the E911
requirements. The Commission also
imposed conditions and required Tier
III carriers to file separate status reports
by November 21, 2005, and
commencing February 1, 2006,
additional status reports on a quarterly
basis, for a two year period.
In addition, on October 28, 2005 (FCC
05–182) and on November 3, 2005 (FCC
05–188), in response to requests for
relief submitted by certain Tier III
carriers, the Commission released orders
that granted, in part, limited extensions
of the December 31, 2005 requirement,
subject to conditions, and required Tier
III carriers to file status reports on a
quarterly basis, for a two year period
beginning on February 1, 2006. Further
FCC 05–188 required one Tier III carrier,
in addition to the quarterly reporting
requirements, to submit a compliance
plan by November 3, 2006.
The Commission will use the
information submitted by Tier III
carriers subject to reporting
requirements to ensure that they comply
with the Commission’s E911
requirements and the terms of the
underlying orders addressing their
requests for waiver relief.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS
COMMISSION
Notice of Public Information
Collection(s) Being Reviewed by the
Federal Communications Commission,
Comments Requested
November 28, 2005.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications
Commission, as part of its continuing
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 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
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 February 13,
2006. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting 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: You may submit your
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
comments by e-mail or U.S. postal mail.
To submit your comments by e-mail
send them to: PRA@fcc.gov. To submit
your comments by U.S. mail, mark it to
the attention of Judith B. Herman,
Federal Communications Commission,

additional information about the
information collection(s) send an e-mail

Title: Amendment of the
Commission’s Rules Regarding the 37.0–
38.6 GHz and 38.6–40.0 GHz Bands,
Third Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit, not-for-profit institutions, and
state, local, or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 700
(approximately 4 applicants for each of
the 175 license areas).
Estimated Time Per Response: 300
hours per auction bidder.
Frequency of Response: Every 10 year
reporting requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 2,100 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $315,000.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
proposes to issue geographic area
licenses for the 37.0–38.6 GHz band, or
in the alternative, seeks comment on the
possibility of using a first-come, firstserved link-by-link registration
approach comparable to the 70/80/90
GHz Report and Order. In that
proceeding, the Commission decided to
issue non-exclusive nationwide licenses
conditioned upon site and path-specific
coordination wherein many service
providers would engineer their systems
to operate in close proximity, without
causing mutual interference. In order to
facilitate such coordination, the
Commission adopted non-interference
requirements and required all licensees
to register their facilities in a database
accessible to other licensees on a firstcome, first-served basis. Although the
Commission determined not to impose
a limit to the number of non-exclusive
nationwide licenses, licensees would be
required to construct individual links
within 12 months after registering them.
Our goal is to establish a flexible
regulatory framework that would
promote seamless deployment of a host
of services and technologies in the 73
GHz and 42 GHz bands. We seek to
enhance opportunities for deployment
of broadband wireless services, foster
effective competition, promote
innovation and further our efforts for
consistent rule application regarding
broadband wireless services.
