Notice of Public Information Collection(s) Being Submitted for Review and Approval to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), Comments Requested, 2378 [2011-558]

Download as PDF 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. Marlene H. Dortch, Secretary.
