Download as PDF 28382 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 93 / Monday, May 14, 2012 / Notices information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information. Respondents/Affected Entities: Owners or operators of demolition and renovation of facilities; the disposal of asbestos waste; asbestos milling, manufacturing and fabricating; the use of asbestos on roadways; asbestos waste conversion facilities; and the use of asbestos insulation and sprayed-on materials. Estimated Number of Respondents: 9,517. Frequency of Response: Initially, occasionally, and semiannually. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 226,407. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $21,694,083, which includes $21,694,083 in labor costs exclusively; there are neither capital/startup nor operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Changes in the Estimates: There is an adjustment decrease in the total estimated labor hours from the most recently approved ICR. The decrease is due to a mathematical correction in the previously approved ICR, which overestimated the burden for the respondents. However, there is an overall increase in labor costs to the respondents due to an increase in labor rates. There is an increase in Agency hours and costs from the most recently approved ICR. The increase is due to a growth in the respondent universe in the past three years, and labor rate increases. This ICR uses updated labor rates for each of the three labor categories when estimating burden costs. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division.

Respondents: Business or other for profit entities; not-for-profit institutions; State, Local or Tribal Governments. Number of Respondents/Responses: 9,250 respondents; 9,250 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 2.5 hours to 4.5 hours. Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement; on occasion reporting requirement; biennially reporting requirement. Total Annual Burden: 38,125 hours. Total Annual Costs: $26,940,000. Nature of Response: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this collection of PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 information is contained in Sections 154(i), 303, 310 and 533 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Form 323 collects two types of information from respondents: personal information in the form of names, addresses, job titles and demographic information; and FCC Registration Numbers (FRNs). The FCC is in the process of publishing a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/MB–1, ‘‘Ownership Report for Commercial Broadcast Stations,’’ to cover the collection, purposes(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal of the PII that individual respondents may submit on FCC Form 323. FCC Form 323 will include a privacy statement to inform applicants (respondents) of the Commission’s need to obtain the information and the protections that the FCC has in place to protect the PII. This privacy statement will be finalized and included with the form instructions after the Commission has published the SORN for the collection. FRNs are assigned to applicants who complete FCC Form 160 (OMB Control No. 3060–0917). Form 160 requires applicants for FRNs to provide their Taxpayer Information Number (TIN) and/or Social Security Number (SSN). The FCC’s electronic CORES Registration System then provides each registrant with a FCC Registration Number (FRN), which identifies the registrant in his/her subsequent dealings with the FCC. This is done to protect the individual’s privacy. The Commission maintains a SORN, FCC/OMD–9, ‘‘Commission Registration System (CORES)’’ to cover the collection, purpose(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal of the PII that individual respondents may submit on FCC Form 160. FCC Form 160 includes a privacy statement to inform applicants (respondents) of the Commission’s need to obtain the information and the protections that the FCC has in place to protect the PII. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: The FCC is in the process of publishing a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/ MB–1, ‘‘Ownership Report for Commercial Broadcast Stations,’’ to cover the collection, purposes(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal of the PII that individual respondents may submit on FCC Form 323. The FCC will publish the SORN in the Federal Register. Going forward, if the FCC makes substantive changes to Form 323 after its SORN is published, the Commission will conduct a full Privacy Impact Assessment of FCC/MB–1 SORN, publish a Notice in the Federal E:\FR\FM\14MYN1.SGM 14MYN1 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 93 / Monday, May 14, 2012 / Notices Register, and post both documents on the FCC Web page, as required by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum, M–03–22 (September 22, 2003). Needs and Uses: Licensees of commercial AM, FM, and full power television broadcast stations, as well as licensees of Class A and Low Power Television stations must file FCC Form 323 every two years. Ownership Reports shall provide information accurate as of October 1 of the year in which the Report is filed. Thereafter, the Form shall be filed biennially beginning November 1, 2011, and every two years thereafter. Also, Licensees and Permittees of commercial AM, FM, or full power television stations must file Form 323 following the consummation of a transfer of control or an assignment of a commercial AM, FM, or full power television station license or construction permit; a Permittee of a new commercial AM, FM or full power television broadcast station must file Form 323 within 30 days after the grant of the construction permit; and a Permittee of a new commercial AM, FM, or full power television broadcast station must file Form 323 to update the initial report or to certify the continuing accuracy and completeness of the previously filed report on the date that the Permittee applies for a license to cover the construction permit. In the case of organizational structures that include holding companies or other forms of indirect ownership, a separate FCC Form 323 must be filed for each entity in the organizational structure that has an attributable interest in the Licensee if the filing is a nonbiennial filing or a reportable interest in the Licensee if the filing is a biennial filing.

DATES: PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 28383 Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and third party disclosure requirements. Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. There is no statutory authority for this information collection. The reporting requirements are in international agreements and ITU–R M.541–9. Total Annual Burden: 10,000 hours. Total Annual Cost: N/A. Privacy Impact Assessment: Yes. The Commission maintains a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/WTB–1, ‘‘Wireless Services Licensing Records,’’ that covers this collection, purpose(s), storage, safeguards and disposal of the Personally Identifiable Information (PII) that marine VHF radio licensees maintain under 47 CFR section 80.103. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is a need for confidentiality with respect to all owners of Marine VHF radios with Digital Selective Calling (DSC) capability in this collection. Pursuant to section 208(b) of the EGovernment Act of 2002, 44 U.S.C. section 3501, in conformance with the Privacy Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552(a), the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau (WTB or Bureau) instructs licensees to use the FCC’s Universal Licensing System (ULS), Antenna Structure Registration (ASR), Commission Registration System (CORES) and related systems and subsystems to submit information. CORES is used to receive an FCC Registration Number (FRN) and password, after which one must register all current call signs and ASR numbers associated with a FRN within the Bureau’s system of records (ULS database). Although ULS stores all information pertaining to the individual license via the FRN, confidential information is accessible only by persons or entities that hold the password for each account, and the Bureau’s Licensing Division staff. Upon the request of a FRN, the individual licensee is consenting to make publicly available, via the ULS database, all information that is not confidential in nature. Information on the marine VHF radios with DSC capability is maintained in the Commission’s system of records, FCC/WTB–1, ‘‘Wireless Services Licensing Records.’’ The licensee records will be publicly available and routinely used in accordance with subsection (b) of the Privacy Act. FRN numbers and material which is afforded confidential treatment pursuant to a request made under 47 CFR section 0.459 of the Commission’s rules, will not be made available for public inspection. Any PII that individual applicants provide is covered by a E:\FR\FM\14MYN1.SGM 14MYN1

Statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 
Sections 154(i), 303, 310 and 533 of the Communications Act of 1934, as 
amended.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Form 323 collects two types 
of information from respondents: personal information in the form of 
names, addresses, job titles and demographic information; and FCC 
Registration Numbers (FRNs).
    The FCC is in the process of publishing a system of records notice 
(SORN), FCC/MB-1, ``Ownership Report for Commercial Broadcast 
Stations,'' to cover the collection, purposes(s), storage, safeguards, 
and disposal of the PII that individual respondents may submit on FCC 
Form 323. FCC Form 323 will include a privacy statement to inform 
applicants (respondents) of the Commission's need to obtain the 
information and the protections that the FCC has in place to protect 
the PII. This privacy statement will be finalized and included with the 
form instructions after the Commission has published the SORN for the 
collection.
    FRNs are assigned to applicants who complete FCC Form 160 (OMB 
Control No. 3060-0917). Form 160 requires applicants for FRNs to 
provide their Taxpayer Information Number (TIN) and/or Social Security 
Number (SSN). The FCC's electronic CORES Registration System then 
provides each registrant with a FCC Registration Number (FRN), which 
identifies the registrant in his/her subsequent dealings with the FCC. 
This is done to protect the individual's privacy. The Commission 
maintains a SORN, FCC/OMD-9, ``Commission Registration System (CORES)'' 
to cover the collection, purpose(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal 
of the PII that individual respondents may submit on FCC Form 160. FCC 
Form 160 includes a privacy statement to inform applicants 
(respondents) of the Commission's need to obtain the information and 
the protections that the FCC has in place to protect the PII.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: The FCC is in the process of 
publishing a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/MB-1, ``Ownership 
Report for Commercial Broadcast Stations,'' to cover the collection, 
purposes(s), storage, safeguards, and disposal of the PII that 
individual respondents may submit on FCC Form 323. The FCC will publish 
the SORN in the Federal Register. Going forward, if the FCC makes 
substantive changes to Form 323 after its SORN is published, the 
Commission will conduct a full Privacy Impact Assessment of FCC/MB-1 
SORN, publish a Notice in the Federal
