SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060–0484. Title: Sections 4.1 and 4.2, and Part 4 of the Commission’s Rules Concerning Disruptions to Communications (NORS). Form No.: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit, not-for-profit institutions, and State, local or tribal government. Number of Respondents: 71 respondents; 139 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 2 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement. Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154, 218, 219, 230, 256, 301, 302, 303, 403, and 621. Total Annual Burden: 19,738 hours. Total Annual Cost: N/A. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: In accordance with 47 CFR 4.2 of the Commission’s rules, reports under Part 4 are presumed confidential. Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this expiring information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) after this 60-day comment period in order to obtain the full three-year clearance from them. The Commission is requesting approval of an extension of this information collection (no change in the reporting requirement). The Commission is reporting a significant increase of 10,100 hours in the total annual burden hours. This is due to a recalculation of our burden estimates and fewer respondents reporting information. The estimated number of respondents fluctuates because of the type of event to be reported and the location where it occurred. In recognition of the critical need for rapid, full, and accurate information on mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:01 Oct 14, 2010 Jkt 223001 service disruptions that could affect homeland security, public health and safety, as well as the economic wellbeing of our Nation, and in view of the increasing importance of non-wireline communications in the Nation’s communications networks and critical infrastructure, the Commission adopted rules requiring mandatory service disruptions reporting from all communications providers (cable, satellite, wireline and wireless) that provide voice and/or paging communications. As envisioned, the information collected pursuant to these rules has helped improve network reliability. OMB Control Number: 3060–1094. Title: Sections 27.14 and 27.1221, Licensing, Operation and Transition of the 2500–2690 MHz Band. Form No.: N/A. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit, not-for-profit institutions, and State, local or tribal government. Number of Respondents: 2,500 respondents; 5,140 responses. Estimated Time per Response: .50– 2.25 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion and one-time reporting requirements, recordkeeping requirement and third party disclosure requirement. Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 301, 303(f), 303(g), 303(r), 307, 308, and 316. Total Annual Burden: 3,510 hours. Total Annual Cost: $302,667. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this revised information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) after this 60-day comment period in order to obtain the full three-year clearance from them. The Commission is reporting a program change decrease of 7,214 hours which is due to elimination of the pretransition data request, the transition notice, the initiation plan, the posttransition notification and the transition plan because they relate to the transition of BRS and EBS licensees to the new band plan and these requirements have been met. The Commission is also reporting an adjustment decrease of 2,267 hours due to recalculation of all the remaining burden estimates. The FCC adopted and released a Fourth Memorandum Opinion and Order (2008 Order), FCC 08–83, which adopted section 27.14(o) of the Commission’s rules. That rule requires all Broadband Radio Service (BRS) and PO 00000 Frm 00042 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Educational Broadband Service (EBS) licensees to make a showing of ‘‘substantial service’’ no later than May 1, 2011 on a license-by-license basis. The requirement was modified by the Third Report and Order (2010 Order), FCC 10–107, to require that licensees issue a new BRS license on or after November 6, 2009, and would have four years from the date of initial grant to provide substantial service. A licensee must demonstrate that it provided service which is sound, favorable and substantially above the level of mediocre service which might minimally warrant renewal. The information relating to substantial service is used by the Commission staff to satisfy requirements for licensees to demonstrate substantial service at the time of license renewal. Without this information, the Commission would not be able to carry out its statutory responsibilities. The third party disclosure coordination requirements are necessary to ensure that licensees do not cause interference to each other and that licensees who undertake to transition to the new band plan receive reimbursement for eligible costs.

    Title: Residential Fixed Broadband Services Testing and 
Measurement.
    Form No.: N/A.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 11,016 responses; 14,200 total annual
