ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Nicholas A. Fraser, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), via fax at (202) 395–5167, or via the Internet at Nicholas_A._Fraser@omb.eop.gov and to Judith B. Herman, Federal Communications Commission (FCC). To submit your PRA comments by e–mail send them to: PRA@fcc.gov. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Judith B. Herman, OMD, 202–418–0214. For additional information about the information collection(s) send an e–mail to PRA@fcc.gov or contact Judith B. Herman, 202–418–0214. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control No: 3060–0953. Title: Sections 95.1111 and 95.1113, Frequency Coordination/Coordinator, Wireless Medical Telemetry Service. 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: 2,728 respondents; 2,728 responses. Estimated Time Per Response: 4 hours (average). Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement, third party VerDate Nov<24>2008 16:34 Feb 02, 2010 Jkt 220001 disclosure requirement, and recordkeeping requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Total Annual Burden: 10,912 hours. Total Annual Cost: $545,000. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: No information is requested that would require assurance of confidentiality. Need and Uses: The Commission will submit this expiring information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) as an extension (no change in the reporting, recordkeeping and/or third party disclosure requirements). The Commission’s burden estimate for the number of respondents increased from 2,500 to 2,728 with this submission to the OMB. This adjustment in the number of respondents is to reflect more accurate estimates that the Commission has obtained over time. On June 12, 2000, the Commission adopted rules which allocated spectrum for Wireless Medical Telemetry Service (WMTS) that allows potentially life– critical equipment to operate in an interference–protected basis. Medical telemetry equipment is used in hospitals and health care facilities to transmit patient measurement data such as pulse and respiration rate to a nearby receiver, permitting greater patient mobility and increased comfort. The Commission designated a frequency coordinator, who maintains a database of all WMTS equipment. All parties using equipment in the WMTS are required to coordinate/register their operating frequency and other relevant technical operating parameters with the designated coordinator. The database provides a record of the frequencies used by each facility or device to assist parties in selecting frequencies to avoid interference. Without the database, there would be no record of WMTS usage because WMTS transmitters will not be individually licensed. The designated frequency coordinator has the responsibility to maintain an accurate engineering database of all WMTS transmitters, identified by location (coordinates, street address, building), operating frequency, emission type and output power, frequency range(s) used, modulation scheme used, effective radiated power, number of transmitters in use at the health care facility at the time of registration, legal name of the authorized health care provider, and point of contact for authorized health care provider. The frequency coordinator will make the database available to WMTS users, equipment manufacturers and the public. The PO 00000 Frm 00032 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 coordinator will also notify users of potential frequency conflicts. Federal Communications Commission. Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary, Office of the Secretary, Office of Managing Director.
