SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Commission is requesting
emergency OMB processing of this
information collection under 5 CFR
1320.13. The Commission is requesting
OMB approval by June 18, 2010.
OMB Control Number: 3060–XXXX.
Title: Requests for Waiver of Various
Petitioners to Allow the Establishment
of 700 MHz Interoperable Public Safety
Wireless Broadband Networks.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: New collection.
Respondents: State, local or tribal
government.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 50 respondents, 50
responses.
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 220001
Estimated Time per Response: 365
hours (average).
Frequency of Response: One time and
quarterly reporting requirements.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. sections 151,
154(i) 301, 303, 332 and 337.
Total Annual Burden: 18,250 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
submitting this new information
collection to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under their
emergency processing provisions of 5
CFR 1320.13. The Commission is
requesting OMB approval by June 18,
2010.
In the Order PS Docket No. 06–229,
FCC 10–79, the Commission grants with
conditions, 21 waiver petitions filed by
public safety entities (‘‘Petitioners’’)
seeking early deployment of statewide
or local public safety networks in the
700 MHz spectrum. This waiver serves
the public interest by allowing state and
local jurisdictions to begin broadband
deployment and speed services to the
public safety community. This will also
allow the Petitioners to take advantage
of available or potential funding, either
through grants or planned budgetary
expenditures, as well as to take
advantage of economies of scale and
other cost saving measures for
deployments that are already planned.
In addition, Petitioners could benefit
from the announced plans of some
commercial carriers to begin
construction of LTE–based networks
this year and early next year, which
could result in significant cost savings.
One of the conditions for such waiver
is the submission of interoperability
plans to the Commission’s Emergency
Response Interoperability Center
(‘‘ERIC’’). The Commission recently
decided to establish ERIC to promote
appropriate technical requirements that
will ensure interoperability for these
early deployments from their inception,
as well as for any future deployed
networks. Given the rapidly evolving
nature of 3GPP deployments and
standards, submission of the Petitioners’
interoperability plans will help ensure
interoperability and roaming among
these early deployments.
Another condition of waiver is
certification by Petitioners that their
vendors are participating actively in the
PSCR/DC Demonstration Network
which will provide an open platform for
development and testing of public safety
700 MHz LTE broadband equipment.
PO 00000

This is important to ensure that, early in
the deployment stage, new broadband
equipment is being developed to
support the network meets public
safety’s use expectations, will work in a
multivendor environment, and allows
for roaming across multiple networks.
We also require each Petitioner to
enter into a de facto spectrum lease with
the Public Safety Spectrum Trust
(‘‘PSST’’) in accordance with the terms
and conditions of the Order. These
leases must be submitted for approval
by the Commission’s Chief of the Public
Safety and Homeland Security Bureau
within 60 days of approval by OMB.
We also require each Petitioner,
before deployment, to coordinate and
address interference mitigation needs
with any adjacent or bordering
jurisdictions that also plan deployment,
memorialize these agreements in
writing, and submit them to ERIC
within 30 days of their completion.
Similarly, we require that parties
provide ERIC with notice of any changes
or updates within 30 days.
In light of the novel nature of these
deployments and the ongoing standards
and equipment development for LTE,
we emphasize that diligent pursuit of
deployment is expected. In this respect,
we also require Petitioners to file, in
consultation with the PSST, 30 days
after approval by OMB and quarterly
thereafter, status reports with the Public
Safety and Homeland Security Bureau
addressing the Petitioners’ progress in
three areas: 1) planning, 2) funding, and
3) deployment.
This information will be used by FCC
staff to facilitate deployment of state
and local public safety broadband
networks as an initial step towards
development of a nationwide,
interoperable public safety broadband
network Accurate recordkeeping of this
data is vital in developing the regulatory
framework for this network. Since such
a network is vital for public safety and
homeland security, its proper operation
must be assured.
