SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060–0805.
Title: 700 MHz Eligibility, Regional
Planning Requirements, and 4.9 GHz
Guidelines (47 CFR 90.523, 90.527, and
90.1211).
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: State, local or tribal
government; not-for-profit institutions.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 1,172 respondents; 1,172
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour
(range of 1 hour to 628 hours).
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirements; one-time
reporting requirements; and third party
disclosure requirements.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits (47 CFR 90.523,
90.527, and voluntary (47 CFR 90.1211).
Total Annual Burden: 35,756 hours.
Total Annual Cost: None.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No
impact.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: Section 90.523
requires that nongovernmental
organizations that provide services
which protect the safety of life or
property obtain a written statement from
an authorizing state or local government
entity to support the nongovernmental
organization’s application for
assignment of 700 MHz frequencies.
Section 90.527 requires 700 MHz
regional planning regions to submit an
initial plan for use of the 700 MHz
general use spectrum in the
consolidated narrowband segment 769–
775 MHz and 799–805 MHz. Regional
planning committees may modify plans
by written request, which must contain
the full text of the modification and
certification that the modification was
successfully coordinated with adjacent
regions. Regional planning promotes a
fair and open process in developing
allocation assignments by requiring
input from eligible entities in the
allocation decisions and the application
technical review/approval process.
Entities that seek inclusion in the plan
to obtain future licenses are considered
third party respondents. Section
90.1211 authorizes the fifty-five 700
MHz regional planning committees to
develop and submit on a voluntary basis
a plan on guidelines for coordination
procedures to facilitate the shared use of
4940–4990 MHz (4.9 GHz) band, the
Commission has stayed this requirement

indefinitely. Applicants are granted a
geographic area license for the entire
fifty MHz of 4.9 GHz spectrum over a
geographical area defined by the
boundaries of their jurisdiction—city,
county or state. Accordingly, licensees
are required to coordinate their
operations in the shared band to avoid
interference, a common practice when
joint operations are conducted.
Commission staff will use the
information to assign licenses,
determine regional spectrum
requirements and to develop technical
standards. The information will also be
used to determine whether prospective
licensees operate in compliance with
the Commission’s rules. Without such
information, the Commission could not
accommodate regional requirements or
provide for the efficient use of the
available frequencies. This information
collection includes rules to govern the
operation and licensing of the 700 MHz
and 4.9 GHz bands rules and regulation
to ensure that licensees continue to
fulfill their statutory responsibilities in
accordance with the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended. Such
information will continue to be used to
verify that applicants are legally and
technically qualified to hold licenses,
and to determine compliance with
Commission rules.

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
The Commission is not requesting that
the respondents submit confidential
information to the Commission. If the
Commission requests respondents to
submit information which respondents
believe is confidential, respondents may
request confidential treatment of such
information under 47 CFR section 0.459
of the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this information collection
as an extension (no change in reporting,
third party disclosure requirements,
and/or recordkeeping requirements)
after this 60-day comment period in
order to obtain the full three year
clearance from the OMB. The four
information collection requirements
under this OMB Control Number are
information disclosure requirements,
Internet posting requirements,
recordkeeping requirements, and annual
certification requirements. These
requirements are necessary to provide
consumers ready access to information
concerning the rates, terms, and
conditions governing the provision of
interstate, domestic, interexchange
services offered by nondominant
interexchange carriers (IXCs) in a
detariffed and increasingly competitive
environment. The information collected
under the information disclosure
requirement and the Internet posting
requirement must be disclosed to the
public to ensure that consumers have
access to the information they need to
select a telecommunications carrier and
to bring to the Commission’s attention
to possible violations of the
Communications Act without a specific
public disclosure requirement. The
information collected under the
recordkeeping and certification
requirements will be used by the
Commission to ensure that affected
interexchange carriers fulfill their
obligations under the Communications
Act, as amended.
