Total Annual Burden: 221,780 hours. Total Annual Cost: $55,410,000. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Yes. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: In general, there is no need for confidentiality. On a case–by–case basis, the Commission may be required to withhold from disclosure certain information about the location, character, or ownership of a historic property, including traditional religious sites. VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:32 Sep 21, 2010 Jkt 220001 Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this revised information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) after this comment period to obtain OMB’s approval. There is no change in the Commission’s burden estimates. The Commission is revising this collection to request OMB approval of a certification and/or showing of compliance of narrowband equivalency as an attachment and correcting chief financial officers in Schedule B of the FCC Form 601. FCC Form 601 is a consolidated, multi–part application form, or ‘‘long form’’, that is used for general market– based licensing and site–by–site licensing for wireless telecommunications and public safety services filed through the Commission’s Universal Licensing System (ULS). FCC Form 601 is composed of a main form that contains the administrative information and a series of schedules used for filing technical and other information. Respondents are encouraged to submit the FCC Form 601 electronically and are required to do so when submitting FCC Form 601 to apply for an authorization for which the applicant is the winning bidder in a spectrum auction. The data collected on FCC Form 601 include the FCC Registration Number (FRN), which serves as a ‘‘common link’’ for all filings an entity has with the FCC. The Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 requires that those entities filing with the Commission use a FRN. FCC Form 601 is being used for auctionable services as they are implemented. FCC Form 601 is used to apply for a new authorization, or to amend a pending application for an authorization to operate a license wireless radio service. This include Public Mobile Services, Personal Communications Services, General Wireless Communications Services, Private Land Mobile Radio Services, Broadcast Auxiliary Services, Fixed Microwave Services, Instructional Television Fixed Service (ITFS), and the Multipoint Distribution Service (MDS), Maritime Services (excluding ships), and Aviation Services (excluding aircraft). It may also be used to modify or renew an existing license, cancel a license, withdraw a pending application, obtain a duplicate license, submit required notifications, request an extension of time to satisfy construction requirements, or request an administrative update to an existing license (such as mailing address change), request a Special Temporary Authority (STA) or a Developmental License.
