Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 192 / Thursday, October 3, 2013 / Notices
Notice and request for
comments.
ACTION:
The Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
burdens, invites the general public and
other Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collection, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995. 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 collection burden on 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 control
number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
PRA that does not display a valid Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before December 2,
2013. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of

SUMMARY:
VerDate Mar<15>2010
18:29 Oct 02, 2013
Jkt 232001
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement; third party
disclosure requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. The statutory
authority for this collection is contained
in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 301, 303, 308,
309 and 310.
Total Annual Burden: 159 hours.
Annual Cost Burden: $102,025.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
In general, there is no need for
confidentiality with this collection of
information.
Needs and Uses: This collection will
be submitted as an extension (no change
in reporting or recordkeeping
requirements) after this 60-day comment
period to Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) in order to obtain the full
three year clearance.
Disclosure of debris mitigation plans
as part of requests for FCC authorization
will help preserve the United States’
continued affordable access to space,
the continued provision of reliable U.S.
space-based services—including
communications and remote sensing
satellite services for the U.S.
commercial, government, and homeland
security purposes—as well as the
continued safety of persons and
property in space and on the surface of
the Earth. Disclosure of debris
mitigation plans will allow the
Commission and potentially affected
third parties to evaluate satellite
operators’ debris mitigation plans prior
to the issuance of a FCC approval for
communications activities in space.
Disclosure may also aid in the wider
dissemination of information
concerning debris mitigation techniques
and may provide a base-line of
information that will aid in analyzing
and refining those techniques. Without
disclosure of orbital debris mitigation
plans as part of applications for FCC
authority, the Commission would be
denied any opportunity to ascertain
whether satellite operators are in fact
considering and adopting reasonable
debris mitigation practices, which could
result in an increase in orbital debris
and a decrease in the utility of space for
communications and other uses.
Furthermore, the effects of collisions
involving orbital debris can be
catastrophic and may cause significant
damage to functional spacecraft or to
persons or property on the surface of the
Earth, if the debris re-enters the Earth’s
atmosphere in an uncontrolled manner.

require assurance of confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this information collection
to the Office of Management and Budget

is requesting a revision (there has been
a program change in the reporting,
recordkeeping requirements and/or
third party disclosure requirements, the
number of respondents/operators
increased from 100 to 2,620, therefore,
the annual burden and cost has also
increased). The Commission is
requesting OMB approval for a revision.
On May 24, 2012, the Commission
released a Report and Order, ET Docket
No. 08–59, FCC 12–54, Amendment of
Parts 2 and 95 of the Commission’s rules
which revised the requirements for
manufacturers of transmitters for the
‘‘Medical Device Radiocommunication
Service’’ to include with each

label the device in a conspicuous
location on the device. The Report and
Order also adopted rules for ‘‘Medical
Body Area Network’’ (MBAN), which
requires the Commission to establish a
process by which MBAN users will
register and coordinate the use of
certain medical devices. The frequency
coordinator will make the database
available to equipment manufacturers
and the public. The coordinator will
also notify users of potential frequency
conflicts.
