Estimated Time per Response: 1– 8
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. The statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in Sections 154(i), 303, 310
and 533 of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended.
Total Annual Burden: 1,780 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $606,500.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality with
this collection of information.
Needs and Uses: On January 29, 2010,
the Commission released the Order,
Digital Audio Broadcasting Systems and
Their Impact on the Terrestrial Radio
Broadcast Service (‘‘Order’’), DA 10–208,
MM Docket 99–325. The Order will
allow:
(1) Eligible authorized FM stations to
commence operation of FM digital
facilities with operating power up to
–14 dB upon notice to the Commission
on either Form 335 (the licensee of a
super–powered FM station must file an
informal request for any increase in the
station’s FM Digital ERP).
(2) Licensees to submit an application
to the Media Bureau, in the form of an
informal request, for any increase in FM
Digital ERP beyond 6 dB.
(3) Licensees submitting such a
request must use a simplified method
set forth in the Order to determine the
proponent station’s maximum
permissible FM Digital ERP.
(4) In situations where the simplified
method is not applicable due to unusual
terrain or other environmental or
technical considerations or when it
produces anomalous FM Digital ERP
results, the Bureau will accept
applications for FM Digital ERP in
excess of –14 dB on a case–by–case
basis when accompanied by a detailed
showing containing a complete
explanation of the prediction
methodology used as well as data, maps
and sample calculations.
(5) Finally, the Order implements
interference mitigation and remediation
procedures to resolve promptly
allegations of digital interference to an
authorized FM analog facility resulting
from an FM Digital ERP power increase
undertaken pursuant to the procedures
adopted in the Order. Pursuant to these
procedures, the affected analog FM
station may file an interference
complaint with the Bureau. In order to
be considered by the Bureau, the
complaint must contain at least six
reports of ongoing (rather than
transitory) objectionable interference.
For each report of interference, the
affected FM licensee must submit a map
VerDate Mar<15>2010
15:46 Jun 18, 2010
Jkt 220001
showing the location of the reported
interference and a detailed description
of the nature and extent of the
interference being experienced at that
location. Interference reports at
locations outside a station’s protected
analog contour will not be considered.
The complaint must also contain a
complete description of the tests and
equipment used to identity the alleged
interference and the scope of the
unsuccessful efforts to resolve the
interference.
The following rule sections contain
information collection requirements that
have been approved by OMB and do not
require any additional OMB approval
because they did not change since last
approved by OMB:
47 CFR 73.404(b) states in situations
where interference to other stations is
anticipated or actually occurs, AM
licensees may, upon notification to the
Commission, reduce the power of the
primary Digital Audio Broadcasting
(DAB) sidebands by up to 6 dB. Any
greater reduction of sideband power
requires prior authority from the
Commission via the filing of a request
for special temporary authority or an
informal letter request for modification
of license.
47 CFR 73.404(e) states licensees
(commercial and noncommercial AM
and FM radio stations) must provide
notification to the Commission in
Washington, DC, within 10 days of
commencing in–band, on channel
(IBOC) digital operation. The
notification must include the following
information:
(1) Call sign and facility identification
number of the station;
(2) Date on which IBOC operation
commenced;
(3) Certification that the IBOC DAB
facilities conform to permissible hybrid
specifications;
(4) Name and telephone number of a
technical representative the
Commission can call in the event of
interference;
(5) FM digital effective radiated power
used and certification that the FM
analog effective radiated power remains
as authorized;
(6) Transmitter power output; if
separate analog and digital transmitters
are used, the power output for each
transmitter;
(7) If applicable, any reduction in an
AM station’s primary digital carriers;
(8) If applicable, the geographic
coordinates, elevation data, and license
file number of the auxiliary antenna
employed by an FM station as a separate
digital antenna;
(9) If applicable, for FM systems
employing interleaved antenna bays, a

certification that adequate filtering and/
or isolation equipment has been
installed to prevent spurious emissions
in excess of the limits specified in
Section 73.317;
(10) A certification that the operation
will not cause human exposure to levels
of radio frequency radiation in excess of
the limits specified in Section 1.1310 of
the Commission’s rules and is therefore
categorically excluded from
environmental processing pursuant to
Section 1306(b). Any station that cannot
certify compliance must submit an
environmental assessment (‘‘EA’’)
pursuant to Section 1.1311 and may not
commence IBOC operation until such
EA is ruled upon by the Commission.

FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE
AGENCY
[No. 2010–N–07]
Privacy Act of 1974; System of
Records
AGENCY: Federal Housing Finance
Agency.
ACTION: Notice of the establishment of a
new system of records.
SUMMARY: The Federal Housing Finance
Agency (FHFA) is revising the proposed
system of records notice that was
published in the Federal Register May
10, 2010, at 75 FR 25856. The system of
records is ‘‘Compensation Information
Provided by the Regulated Entities’’
(FHFA–4), which will contain
compensation-related information on
entities regulated by FHFA.
DATES: This system of records will
become effective on June 21, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John
Major, Privacy Act Officer,
john.major@fhfa.gov, 202–408–2849; or
David A. Lee, Senior Agency Official for
Privacy, david.lee@fhfa.gov, 202–408–
2514 (not toll-free numbers), Federal
Housing Finance Agency, 1700 G Street
NW., Fourth Floor, Washington, DC
20552. The telephone number for the
Telecommunications Device for the Deaf
is 800–877–8339.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
This notice informs the public of
FHFA’s system of records called
‘‘Compensation Information Provided by
the Regulated Entities’’ (FHFA–4),
E:\FR\FM\21JNN1.SGM
21JNN1
sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 118 / Monday, June 21, 2010 / Notices
which will contain compensationrelated information on entities regulated
by FHFA, namely, the Federal Home
Loan Banks, the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, and the Federal
National Mortgage Association. This
system of records notice will replace the
proposed system of records notice
published in the Federal Register on
May 10, 2010, at 75 FR 25856. The
information in the system of records is
needed for FHFA staff members to make
and support determinations relating to
compensation consistent with the safety
and soundness responsibilities of FHFA.
FHFA issued a proposed system of
records notice in the Federal Register
on May 10, 2010, at 75 FR 25856. FHFA
received one public comment. The
commenter requested that FHFA define
the term ‘‘executive’’ as the term
‘‘executive officer’’ will be defined in
FHFA’s forthcoming final rule on
executive compensation. FHFA has
determined that a definition of the term
is not necessary in this system of
records notice. In addition, FHFA has
deleted the reference to ‘‘employees’’ in
the category of individuals covered by
the system.
This notice satisfies the Privacy Act
requirement that an agency publish a
system of records notice in the Federal
Register when there is an addition to
the agency’s system of records. It has
been recognized by Congress that
application of all requirements of the
Privacy Act to certain categories of
records may have an undesirable and
often unacceptable effect upon agencies
in the conduct of necessary public
business. Consequently, Congress
established general exemptions and
specific exemptions that could be used
to exempt records from provisions of the
Privacy Act. Congress also required that
exempting records from provisions of
the Privacy Act would require the head
of an agency to publish a determination
to exempt a record from the Privacy Act
as a rule in accordance with the
Administrative Procedures Act. The
Director of FHFA has determined that
records and information in this new
system of records is not exempt from
requirements of the Privacy Act.
As required by the Privacy Act, 5
U.S.C. 552a(r), and pursuant to
paragraph 4c of Appendix I to OMB
Circular No. A–130, ‘‘Federal Agency
Responsibilities for Maintaining
Records About Individuals,’’ dated
February 8, 1996 (February 20, 1996; 61
FR 6427, 35), FHFA has submitted a
report describing the new system of
records covered by this notice, to the
Committee on Government Operations
of the House of Representatives, the
Committee on Governmental Affairs of

AGENCY: Federal Housing Finance Agency.
ACTION: Notice of the establishment of a new system of records.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is revising the
proposed system of records notice that was published in the Federal
Register May 10, 2010, at 75 FR 25856. The system of records is
``Compensation Information Provided by the Regulated Entities'' (FHFA-

regulated by FHFA.
DATES: This system of records will become effective on June 21, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John Major, Privacy Act Officer,

Telecommunications Device for the Deaf is 800-877-8339.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
This notice informs the public of FHFA's system of records called
``Compensation Information Provided by the Regulated Entities'' (FHFA-
4),
[[Page 35029]]
which will contain compensation-related information on entities
regulated by FHFA, namely, the Federal Home Loan Banks, the Federal
Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, and the Federal National Mortgage
Association. This system of records notice will replace the proposed
system of records notice published in the Federal Register on May 10,
2010, at 75 FR 25856. The information in the system of records is
needed for FHFA staff members to make and support determinations
relating to compensation consistent with the safety and soundness
responsibilities of FHFA.
FHFA issued a proposed system of records notice in the Federal
Register on May 10, 2010, at 75 FR 25856. FHFA received one public
comment. The commenter requested that FHFA define the term
``executive'' as the term ``executive officer'' will be defined in
FHFA's forthcoming final rule on executive compensation. FHFA has
determined that a definition of the term is not necessary in this
system of records notice. In addition, FHFA has deleted the reference
to ``employees'' in the category of individuals covered by the system.
This notice satisfies the Privacy Act requirement that an agency
publish a system of records notice in the Federal Register when there
is an addition to the agency's system of records. It has been
recognized by Congress that application of all requirements of the
Privacy Act to certain categories of records may have an undesirable

Act as a rule in accordance with the Administrative Procedures Act. The
Director of FHFA has determined that records and information in this
new system of records is not exempt from requirements of the Privacy
