Privacy Impact Assessment: The FCC completed a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) on June 28, 2007. The PIA may be reviewed at https://www.fcc.gov/omd/ privacyact/ Privacy_Impact_Assessment.html. The FCC is in the process of updating the PIA to incorporate various revisions made to the SORN. Needs and Uses: On October 7, 2011, in document FCC 11–151, the FCC released a Report and Order adopting final rules to implement sections 716 and 717 of the Communications Act of 1934 (the Act), as amended, which were added to the Act by the Twenty-First Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act of 2010 (CVAA). See Public Law 111–260, 104. Section 716 of the Act requires providers of advanced communications services and manufacturers of equipment used for advanced communications services to make their services and equipment accessible to individuals with disabilities, unless doing so is not achievable. 47 U.S.C. 617. Section 717 of the Act establishes new recordkeeping requirements and enforcement procedures for service providers and equipment manufacturers that are subject to sections 255, 716, and 718 of the Act. 47 U.S.C. 618. Section 255 of the Act requires telecommunications and interconnected VoIP services and equipment to be accessible, if readily achievable. 47 U.S.C. 255. Section 718 of the Act requires web browsers included on mobile phones to be accessible to and usable by individuals who are blind or have a visual impairment, unless doing so is not achievable. 47 U.S.C. 619. Among other things, the FCC established procedures in document FCC 11–151 to facilitate the filing of formal and informal complaints alleging violations of sections 255, 716, or 718 of the Act. Those procedures include a nondiscretionary pre-filing notice procedure to facilitate dispute resolution. As a prerequisite to filing an informal complaint, complainants must first request dispute assistance from the Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau’s Disability Rights Office. Pursuant to the new enforcement rules that will go into effect on October 8, 2013, these informal complaints will be filed on a new FCC Form 2000H. In addition, a new Request for Dispute Assistance form (FCC Form RDA) will VerDate Mar<15>2010 19:09 May 17, 2013 Jkt 229001 be used to initiate the 30-day period which must precede the filing of an informal complaint. The burdens associated with filing the new 2000H and Request for Dispute Assistance forms are contained in the collection found in OMB control number 3060– 0874. Therefore, the Commission extracted those burdens from the collection found in OMB control number 3060–1167. In addition, the Commission has revised its estimate of the number of requests for dispute assistance and the number of informal complaints that it expects to receive and the burdens associated with the processing and handling of those requests and complaints.

The Family Planning Annual Report (FPAR) is an annual reporting requirement for family planning services delivery projects (‘‘Title X service grantees’’) authorized and funded by the Title X Family Planning Program [‘‘Population Research and Voluntary Family Planning Programs’’ (Pub. L. 91–572)], which was enacted in 1970 as Title X of the Public Health Service Act (Section 1001 of Title X of the Public Health Service Act, 42 United States Code 300). The Title X Family Planning Program is the only Federal grant program dedicated solely to providing individuals with comprehensive family planning and related preventive health services. The program’s purpose is to assist individuals in determining the number and spacing of their children and is designed to provide access to contraceptive services, supplies, and information to all who want and need them. By law, priority is given to persons from low-income families (Section 1006[c] of Title X of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. 300). The FPAR is the only source of annual, uniform reporting by all Title X service grantees. The FPAR provides consistent, national-, regional-, state-, and granteelevel data on the services provided and the characteristics of the individuals served. Note that there are no changes to the FPAR except minor corrections or clarifications to submission and reporting instructions or definitions. The estimated average hour burden has been reduced to 36 hours, which is 4 hours lower than the 40-hour estimate of the previous OMB submission. Need and Proposed Use of the Information: OPA uses FPAR data to monitor compliance with statutory requirements and accountability and federal performance requirements for Title X family planning funds as required by the 1993 Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) and HHS, to guide financial and program planning and evaluation, and to respond to inquiries about the program from policymakers and Congress. Likely Respondents: Title X service grantees.
