SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060–0715. Title: Telecommunications Carriers’ Use of Customer Proprietary Network Information (CPNI) and Other Customer Information, CC Docket No. 96–115. Form Number: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities. Number of Respondents and Responses: 6,017 respondents; 137,256,125 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 0.153 minutes. Frequency of Response: On occasion, biennial, annual, and one time reporting requirements; recordkeeping; and third party disclosure. Obligation to Respond: Mandatory as required by section 222 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 222. Total Annual Burden: 350,704 hours. Total Annual Cost: $3,000,000. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impacts. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The Commission is not requesting that the respondents submit confidential information to the FCC. Respondents may, however, request confidential treatment for information they believe to be confidential under 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission’s rules. Needs and Uses: Section 222 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 222, establishes a duty of every telecommunications carrier to protect the confidentiality of its customers’ CPNI, which includes personally identifiable information derived from a customer’s relationship with a provider of communications services. This information collection implements the statutory obligations of section 222. These regulations impose safeguards to protect customers’ CPNI against unauthorized access and disclosure. In March 2007, the Commission adopted new rules in the CPNI Order, CC Docket No. 96–115 et al., FCC 07–22, which focused on the efforts of providers of communications services to prevent pretexting. These rules required providers of communications services to adopt additional privacy safeguards that, the Commission believes, will sharply limit pretexters’ ability to obtain unauthorized access to the type of personal customer information from carriers that the Commission regulates. In addition, in furtherance of the Telephone Records and Privacy VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:15 Feb 01, 2008 Jkt 214001 Protection Act of 2006, the Commission’s rules help ensure that law enforcement will have necessary tools to investigate and enforce prohibitions on illegal access to customer records.

Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement; one time reporting requirement; third party disclosure requirement. Total Annual Burden: 10,513 hours. Total Annual Cost: $51,350,347. Needs and Uses: Congress has mandated that after February 17, 2009, full-power television broadcast stations must transmit only in digital signals, and may no longer transmit analog signals. On December 22, 2007, the Commission adopted a Report and Order in the matter of the Third Periodic Review of the Commission’s Rules and Policies Affecting the Conversion to Digital Television, MB Docket No. 07– 91, FCC 07–228, to establish the rules, policies and procedures necessary to complete the nation’s transition to DTV. With the DTV transition deadline less than 14 months away, the Commission must ensure that broadcasters meet their statutory responsibilities and complete construction of, and begin operations on, the facility on their final, posttransition (digital) channel that will reach viewers in their authorized service areas by the statutory transition deadline, when they must cease broadcasting in analog. The Commission wants to ensure that no consumers are left behind in the DTV transition. Specifically, the Report and Order requires full-power commercial television stations to use revised FCC Form 301 to obtain the necessary Commission approvals (i.e., construction permits and licenses) in time to build their post-transition facility. • Applications for post-transition facilities. Full-power commercial television stations without a construction permit for their final, posttransition (DTV) facility must file an application to construct or modify that facility using FCC Forms 301. • Requests to transition early to posttransition channel. Full-power commercial television stations may request authority to transition early to their post-transition channel using FCC Form 301. PO 00000 Frm 00052 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 • Revisions to FCC Form 301. FCC Form 301 was revised to accommodate the filing of post-transition applications. The FCC received approval under the ‘‘emergency processing provisions’’ of the PRA on January 7, 2008. The requirements for this collection have not changed since we received approval.
