Federal Communications Commission for Extension Under Delegated 
Authority, Comments Requested

May 27, 2010.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission, as part of its 
continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden invites the general public 
and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the 
following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501 - 3520. Comments are 
requested concerning: (a) whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the Commission, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; (c) ways 
to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on the respondents, including the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology, and (e) 
ways to further reduce the information collection burden for small 
business concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
    The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information 
unless it displays a currently valid control number. No person shall be 
subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection of 
information subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that does not 
display a currently valid OMB control number.

DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be 
submitted on or before August 2, 2010. If you anticipate that you will 
be submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within the 
period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the FCC 
contact listed below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Nicholas A. Fraser, Office of 
Management and Budget, via fax at 202-395-5167 or via the Internet at 
Nicholas_A._Fraser@omb.eop.gov and to the Federal Communications

    The FCC's Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (WTB) maintains 
Internet software used by the public to apply for licenses, participate 
in auctions for spectrum, and maintain license information. In this 
mission, WTB has a ``help desk'' that answers questions related to 
these systems as well as resetting and/or issuing user passwords for 
access to these systems. The form currently is available on the website 
<https://esupport.fcc.gov/request.html> under this OMB control number.
    The form electronically categories requests to allow for more 
efficient skill routing internally and continuing streamlining 
processes within the Commission. This increases the speed of disposal 
of these requests.
    Customers may check the status of their request using a ``request 
number'' given to the user upon submission of the request on the 
website. This status include then name/number of the agent assigned to 
the ticket, and the ticket number. No privileged or confidential 
information is retrievable by this form.
    Records may include information about individuals or households, 
and the use(s) and disclosure of this information is governed by the 
requirements of a system of records, FCC/WTB-7, ``Remedy Action Request 
System (RARS)''. There are no additional impacts under the Privacy Act.
