adjustment reduction in the number of
respondents from 175,000 to 130,000.

Title: FCC Application for Assignment
of Authorization or Transfer of Control:
Wireless Telecommunications Bureau
and Public Safety and Homeland
Security Bureau.
Form No.: FCC Form 603.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Individuals or
households, business or other for-profit,
not-for-profit institutions and state,
local or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 2,447
respondents; 2,447 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: .5
hours–1.75 hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement and
recordkeeping requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Mandatory.
Statutory authority for this information
collection is contained in 47 U.S.C.
sections 4(i), 154(i), 303(r) and 309(j).
Total Annual Burden: 36,846 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $335,497.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: Yes.
Records many include information
about individuals or households, e.g.,
personally identifiable information or
PII, and the use(s) and disclosure of this
information are governed by the
requirements of a system of records
notice or ‘‘SORN’’, FCC/WTB–1,
‘‘Wireless Services Licensing Records.’’

2378
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 9 / Thursday, January 13, 2011 / Notices
during this comment period to obtain
the full three-year clearance from them.
The Commission is reporting a 34,092
total annual hour decrease and a
$2,775,798 annual cost decrease. This
adjustment is due to a 30,304 fewer
responses since this was last submitted
to OMB in 2008. The revision for which
the Commission is seeking OMB
approval is due to minor changes to the
wording of FCC Form 603 data
elements, adding a question inquiring if
filing is the lead application on the
Main Form, and changing the wording
in the instructions. The FCC uses the
information in FCC Form 603 to
determine whether the applicant is
legally, technically, and financially
qualified to obtain a license. Without
such information, the Commission
cannot determine whether to issue the
licenses to the applicants that provide
telecommunications services to the
public, and therefore, to fulfill its
statutory responsibilities in accordance
with the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended. Information provided on
this form will also be used to update the
database and to provide for proper use
of the frequency spectrum.
Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary.

Total Annual Burden: 142 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
will submit this expiring information
collection (IC) to the OMB during this
comment period. The Commission is
seeking OMB approval for a revision.
The Commission is reporting a 114 hour
program change decrease to the total
burden hour estimate. The revision is
because 47 CFR section 23.20 has been
removed from this information
collection since the last time OMB
approved this information collection.
The Commission adopted and
released a Report and Order, IB Docket
No. 05–216, FCC 10–7, which
eliminated Part 23 rules because there
were no International Fixed Public
Radiocommunications Services (IFPRS)
licenses in operation.
The information collected is used to
facilitate coordination between the
Observatory and Commission-licensed
services in the Commonwealth of Puerto
Rico. Applicants for new or modified
radio communication facilities within
the Coordination Zone are required to
submit technical information
concerning the applicant’s proposed
services to enable the Observatory to
determine the potential for interference
with its operations. The Observatory
will perform interference evaluations at
no cost to the applicants. If potential
interference problems are identified,
applicants are required to make
reasonable attempts to resolve or
mitigate such problems in order to
protect the Observatory.
