Total Annual Burden: 14,796 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy 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 during this comment period
to obtain the full, three year clearance
from the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB). The Commission is
requesting OMB approval for a revision
of this information collection. There are
changes to the Commission’s previous
burden estimates. The total annual
burden has increased (program change
increase) by 14,787 hours from 9 hours.
This is due to revision of the
Commission’s rules in Report and
Order, FCC 13–4 which added rule
sections 13.9, 13.13, 13.17 and 13.211 to
this collection.
On January 8, 2013, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC), in
an effort to clarify, streamline or
eliminate its rules in order to reduce
administrative burdens in the
telecommunications industry. The FCC
adopted a Report and Order, FCC 13–4,
amending its rules concerning
Commercial Radio Operator licensees
for maritime and aviation radio stations.
Of those rules adopted, some have
recordkeeping and/or reporting
requirements for holders of commercial
radio licenses, as well as for
Commercial Operator License
Examination Managers (COLEM(s)) that
administer commercial radio operator
license examinations across the United
States. In this proceeding, the
Commission seeks OMB approval for
the burdens contained in the R&O,
which implements a number of actions
the FCC has taken.
Each COLEM recovering fees from
examinees must maintain records of
expenses and revenues, frequency of
examinations administered, and
examination pass rates. Records must
cover from January 1 to December 31 of
the preceding year and must be
submitted as directed by the FCC. Each
COLEM must retain records for one year
and the records must be made available
to the FCC upon request.
