SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB
Control Number: 3060–XXXX.
Title: Consummation of Assignments
and Transfers of Control of Station
Authorization.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: New collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents: 586
respondents; 586 responses.
Estimated Time Per Response: 1 hour.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits.
Total Annual Burden: 586 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality
pertaining to the information collection
requirements in this collection.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this new information
collection to the OMB after this 60-day
comment period to obtain the full threeyear clearance from them. The Federal
Communications Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is requesting that the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) approve the establishment of a
new collection for consummation of
assignments and transfers of control of

station authorization. In addition, the
Commission is requesting the OMB’s
approval of mandatory electronic filing
of consummations of assignments and
transfers of control of licenses for all
telecommunications services.
A consummation is a party’s
notification to the Commission that a
transaction (assignment or transfer of
control of station authorization) has
been completed within a designated
period of time. A consummation is
applicable to all international
telecommunications services, including
International High Frequency (IHF),
Section 214 Applications (ITC), Satellite
Space Stations (SAT), Submarine Cable
Landing Licenses (SCL) and Satellite
Earth Station (SES) stations.
Currently, applicants send multiple
letters to various offices within the
Commission for each file number and
call sign that are part of the
consummation. The new, proposed
consummation module will eliminate
the applicant’s requirement to notify the
Commission by letter with the details of
the consummation. With this new
collection, the applicant will complete
an on-line form (consummation module)
in the Commission’s electronic
International Bureau Filing System
(‘‘IBFS’’). After the applicant enters the
FCC Registration Number (FRN) in the
form, the system will generate a list of
file numbers and call signs that are
related to the FRN. The applicant can
select the file numbers and call signs
that are part of the consummation. The
consummation module: (1) Saves time
for the applicants and the Commission
staff because the information is readily
accessible for viewing and processing 24
hours a day/7 days a week, (2)
eliminates the applicants completion by
paper and mailing of letters, and (3)
expedites the Commission staff’s receipt
of consummations in a timely manner.
The Commission has authority for this
information collection pursuant to 47
CFR 1.767, 25.119, 63.24(e), 73.3540
and 73.3541. Without this collection of
information, the Commission would not
have critical information such as a
change in a controlling interest in the
ownership of the licensee. Furthermore,
the Commission would not have the
authority to review assignments and
transfers of control of satellite licenses
to determine whether the initial license
was obtained in good faith with the
intent to construct a satellite system.
Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
