Type of Review: New collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit, not-for-profit institutions, and
state, local or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 75
respondents; 314 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 3
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. 303 and 308
of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended.
Total Annual Burden: 942 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $156,750.

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this new information
collection to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) during this 30 day
comment period in order to obtain the
full three year clearance from them. The
Commission is requesting OMB
approval for this new information
collection and assignment of an OMB

Section 74.605 requires that licensees
of TV pickup stations in the 6875 -7125
MHz and 12700—13200 MHz bands
shall register their stationary receive
sites using the Commission’s Universal
Licensing System (ULS). TV Pickup
licensees record their receive-only sites
in the ULS database, including all fixed
service locations. The TV Pickup
stations, licensed under Part 74 of the
Commission’s rules, make it possible for
television and radio stations and
networks to transmit program material
from the sites of breaking news stories
or other live events to television studios
for inclusion in broadcast programs, to
transmit programming material from
studios to broadcasting transmitters for
delivery to consumers’ televisions and
radios, and to transmit programs
between broadcast stations. Registering
the receive sites will allow analysis to
determine whether Fixed Service links

will cause interference to TV pickup
stations.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS
COMMISSION
Information Collection Being Reviewed
by the Federal Communications
Commission Under Delegated
Authority
Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
As part of its continuing effort
to reduce paperwork burden and as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520), the Federal Communications
Commission invites the general public
and other Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collection(s).
Comments are requested concerning: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and (e) ways to
further reduce the information burden
for small business concerns with fewer
than 25 employees.
The FCC may not conduct or sponsor
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that
does not display a valid OMB control
number.
SUMMARY:
Written Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before April 6, 2012. If
you anticipate that you will be
submitting PRA comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, you should

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060–0512.
Title: ARMIS Annual Summary
Report.
Report Number: FCC Report 43–01.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities.
Number of Respondents: 45
respondents; 45 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 88
hours.
Frequency of Response: Annual
reporting requirement.

and 220 of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended.
Total Annual Burden: 3,960 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Ordinarily questions of a sensitive
nature are not involved in the ARMIS
Report 43–01. The Commission
contends that areas in which detailed
information is required are fully subject
to regulation and the issue of data being
regarded as sensitive will arise in
special circumstances only. In such
circumstances, respondents may request
materials or information submitted to
the Commission be withheld from
public inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of
the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
seeking an extension of this expiring
information collection in order to obtain
the full three year approval from OMB.
There is no change to the annual
reporting requirement. There is no
change to the Commission’s previous
burden estimates.
The information contained in FCC
Report 43–01 has helped the
Commission fulfill its regulatory
responsibilities. Automated reporting of
these data greatly enhances the
Commission’s ability to process and
analyze the extensive amounts of data
provided in the reports. Automating and
organizing data submitted to the
Commission facilitate the timely and

efficient analysis of revenue
requirements, rates of return and price
caps, and provide an improved basis for
auditing and other oversight functions.
Automated reporting also enhances the
Commission’s ability to quantify the
effects of policy proposals.
The Commission has granted AT&T,
Verizon, legacy Qwest, and other
similarly situated carriers conditional
forbearance from FCC Report 43–06. See
