must obtain written permission from the
licensee of the aeronautical enroute
stations serving the areas in which the
aircraft data link land test station will
operate on a co-channel basis. The
Commission may request an applicant
to provide documentation to that fact.
The written permission will aid the
Commission in ensuring that licensees
are complying with its policies and
rules, while allowing the owners of
antenna structures and other aviation
obstacles to use Audio Visual Warning
Systems (AVWS) stations, thereby
helping aircraft avoid potential
collisions and enhancing aviation
safety, without causing harmful
interference to other communications.

Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: New collection.
Respondents: Individuals or
households; business or other for-profit,
not-for-profit institutions..
Number of Respondents: 632,444
respondents; 632–444 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: .5
hours to 40 hours.
Frequency of Response:
Recordkeeping requirement, third party
disclosure requirement and on occasion
and annual reporting requirements.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. sections 154(i),

Communications Act of 1934, as
amended.
Total Annual Burden: 324,370 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is a need for confidentiality with
respect to filers who are individuals in
this collection. Pursuant to Section
208(b) of the E-Government 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 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.
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 reporting a 324,370 hour
increase in burden (program change
increase).
The Commission adopted a Report
and Order, FCC 13–21, which adopts
new technical, operational, and
registration requirements for signal
boosters. The new rules create two new
classes of signal boosters—consumer
and industrial—with distinct regulatory
requirements.
Consumer Signal Boosters are
designed to be used ‘‘out of the box’’ by
individuals to improve their wireless
coverage within a limited area such as
a home, car, boat, or recreational
vehicle. Consumer Signal Boosters will
be authorized under provider licenses
subject to certain requirements.
Specifically, subscribers must obtain
some form of licensee consent to operate
the booster; register the booster with
their provider; use a booster that meets
the Network Protection Standard and is
FCC certified; and operate the booster
on a secondary, non-interference basis
and shut it down if it causes harmful
interference. Consumers may continue
to use existing signal boosters provided
they are: (1) Have the consent of their
provider; and (2) register the booster
with that provider. The Commission
will conduct consumer outreach to
educate consumers, public safety
entities, small businesses, and other
about the new regulatory framework.
Industrial Signal Boosters include a
wide variety of devices that are
designed for installation by licensees or
qualified installers. These devices are
typically designed to serve multiple
users simultaneously and cover large
areas such as stadiums, airports, office
buildings, hospitals, tunnels, and
educational campuses. Industrial Signal
Boosters require a FCC license or
express licensee consent to operate, and
must be appropriately labeled.
The Commission established a twostep transition process for equipment
certification for Consumer and
Industrial Signal Boosters sold and
marketed in the United States. First, as
of the release date of the Report and
Order, the Commission stopped
accepting applications for equipment
certification of Consumer and Industrial
Signal Boosters that do not comply with
the new rules and ceased certification of
devices that do not comply with the
new rules. Second, on or after March 1,
2014, all Consumers and Industrial
Signal Boosters sold and marketed in
the United States must meet the new
requirement.
Finally, the Commission has created
an on-line database with screen shots
for the Registration Requirements.
PO 00000
Frm 00029
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Screen shots are included in the
submission to the OMB and can be
viewed in ROCIS (OMB’s electronic
PRA system).
The Commission will use the
information collected from the provider
reporting requirement to assess
providers’ treatment of Consumer Signal
Boosters, including the level of
consumer access. This information will
inform the Commission’s decision
whether it is necessary to revisit the
Consumer Signal Booster authorization
mechanism. The provider-based
registration requirement will facilitate
licensee control over Consumer Signal
Boosters, help providers rapidly resolve
interference issues, and assist in
consumer outreach. The labeling and
marketing requirements will inform
signal booster operators of their legal
responsibilities, facilitate coordination
with providers, and assist in
interference prevention. The Part 90
registration requirement will help
resolve interference should it occur. The
RF labeling requirement will inform
consumers about the potential RF safety
hazards and reference the applicable
FCC-adopted limits for RF exposure.
The certification requirements will
ensure that manufacturers comply with
our new technical rules for Consumer
and Industrial Signal Boosters. The
antenna kitting documentation
requirement will aid consumers in the
correct installation and use of their
devices so as to mitigate interference.
The consent documentation
requirement will ensure that signal
booster operators have the proper
authority to operate their devices.

comment on the following information
collection(s). Comments are requested
concerning: 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; the accuracy of the
Commission’s burden estimate; ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information collected; 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 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.
DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction

Total Annual Burden: 8,231 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
Impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
No questions of a confidential nature are
asked.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
submitting this information collection to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for approval of a revision. The
Commission is increasing the total
annual burden by 7,974 hours due to a
significant increase in the number of
respondents/responses in collection.
The revision is adding one additional
rule section which is 90.187 to this
information collection.
On April 18, 2013, the Commission in
a Fifth Report and Order, FCC 13–52,
adopted changes to 47 CFR 90.425 of the
Commission’s rules to allow Private
Land Mobile Radio (PLMR) licensees in
the bands between 150 and 512 MHz
that are licensed on an exclusive basis
to transmit station identification
information in digital format, on the
condition that the licensee will provide
the Commission with information
sufficient to decode the digital
transmission to ascertain the call sign
transmitted. However, this gives a new
group of licensee stations (PLMRs) an
option regarding the method of
transmission of required call sign
information; it modifies the existing
burden, and slightly increases the cost
burden—specifically the cost associated
with providing the Commission
sufficient information to decode the
transmission—unless they choose the
digital transmission option.
The information requested in this
collection is used by the Commission’s
staff to enable the Commission to
evaluate the accuracy of frequency
coordination pursuant to its rule under
47 CFR 90.187, 90.425 and 90.647.
