Estimated Time per Response: 4–20 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement. Total Annual Burden: 2,800 hours. Total Annual Cost: $10,074.00. Privacy Impact Assessment: No impact(s). Needs and Uses: Licenses and permittees of AM broadcast stations are required to file FCC Form 302–AM to obtain a new or modified station license, and/or to notify the Commission of certain changes in the licensed facilities of these stations. Additionally, when changes are made to an AM station that alter the resistance of the antenna system, a licensee must initiate a determination of the operating power by the direct method. The results are reported to the Commission using FCC Form 302–AM. On October 22, 1998, the Commission adopted a Report and Order in MM Docket Nos. 94–43 and 94–149. Among other things, this Report and Order substantially revised the FCC Form 302– AM to facilitate electronic filing by replacing narrative exhibits with the use of certifications and an engineering technical box. The Commission also removed and narrowed overly burdensome questions. These changes reduced the applicant’s filing burdens in the preparation and submission of exhibits in support of applications. In addition, these changes streamlined the Commission’s processing of FCC 302– AM applications. The Commission also adopted a formal program of pre- and post-application grant random audits to preserve the integrity of our streamlined application process. The data collected is used by FCC staff to confirm that the station has been built to the terms specified in the outstanding construction permit, and to update FCC station files. Data is then extracted from E:\FR\FM\29MRN1.SGM 29MRN1
