Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: The Commission

The FCC Form 312–EZ, Qualification
Questions, is used by applicants for the
C-band and Ku-band earth stations (noncommon carrier applicants) who are
eligible for the ‘‘auto-grant’’ procedure.
Under the ‘‘auto-grant process’’ the
International Bureau of the FCC
automatically grants ‘‘routine’’ earth
station applications proposing to use the
C-band or Ku-band. To be considered
‘‘routine’’, earth station must meet a
number of requirements, including
primarily the following: (1) The earth
station antenna must meet certain
minimum diameter requirements; (2)
the proposed earth station must meet
the antenna performance standard and
power limitations contained in Part 25
of the Commission’s rules; (3) the earth
station must be coordinated as required
by Part 25; (4) the applicant seeks to
communicate only with satellites
authorized to provide service in the
United States; and (5) the proposed
station is otherwise consistent with the
Commission’s legal requirements.
This information collection is used by
Commission staff in carrying out its
duties concerning satellite
communications as required by Sections
301, 308, 309, and 310 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended. It is also used by the
Commission staff in carrying out its
duties under the World Trade
Organization (WTO) Basic Telecom
Agreement. Without such information,
the Commission could not determine
whether to permit respondents to
provide telecommunications services in
the United States.

No. 106–113, 113 Stat. Appendix I at
pp. 1501A–594—1501A–598 (1999),
codified at 47 U.S.C. Section 336(f), was
enacted. That legislation provided that a
low power television (LPTV) licensee
should be permitted to convert the
secondary status of its station to the new
Class A status, provided it can satisfy
certain statutorily-established criteria.
The CBPA directs that Class A licensees
be subject to the same license terms and
renewal standards as full-power
television licenses and that Class A
licensees be accorded primary status as
television broadcasters as long as they
continue to meet the requirements set
forth in the statute for a qualifying low
power station. The CBPA sets out
certain certification and application
procedures for LPTV licensees seeking
Class A designation, prescribes the
criteria LPTV licensees must meet to be
eligible for Class A licenses, and
outlines the interference protection
Class A applicants must provide to
analog, digital, LPTV and TV translator
stations.
The CBPA directs that Class A
stations must comply with the operating
requirements for full-service television
broadcast stations. Therefore, beginning
on the date of its application for a Class
A license and thereafter, a station must
be ‘‘in compliance’’ with the
Commission’s operating rules for fullservice television stations, contained in
47 CFR part 73.
