Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 199 / Wednesday, October 15, 2014 / Notices
period has ended in order to obtain the
full three-year clearance from OMB.
The purpose of the revision is to
remove the information collection
requirements that are Section 47 CFR
25.114 from OMB Control No. 3060–
1013 since they were consolidated in
3060–0678. OMB approved the
consolidation on August 15, 2014.
Orbital debris consists of artificial
objects orbiting the Earth that are not
functional spacecraft. It consists of a
wide range of non-functioning manmade objects that have been placed in
the Earth’s orbit, both accidentally and
on purpose. Orbital debris consists of
small objects such as paint flakes,
discarded lens caps, ejected bolts and
pieces of debris from exploded
spacecraft and rocket bodies. Since
human activity in space began, there has
been a steady growth in the number and
total mass of orbital debris. Once
created, debris remains in orbit
indefinitely, absent other forces. Growth
in the orbital debris population may
limit the usefulness of space for
communications and other uses in the
future by raising the costs and lowering
the reliability of space based systems.
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.
The information collection
requirements accounted for in this
collection are necessary to mitigate the
potential harmful effects of orbital
debris accumulation. Without such
information collection requirements, the
growth in the orbital debris population
may limit the usefulness of space for
communications and other uses in the
future by raising the costs and lowering
the reliability of experimental and
amateur systems. 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 reenters the Earth’s atmosphere in an
uncontrolled manner.

Title: Consummation of Assignments
and Transfers of Control of
Authorization.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities.
Number of Respondents: 163
respondents; 163 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:00 Oct 14, 2014
Jkt 235001
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Obligation To Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. The statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in Sections 47 U.S.C.
154(i).
Total Annual Burden: 163 hours.
Annual Cost Burden: $48,900.
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 to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) as a
revision after this 60 day comment
period has ended in order to obtain the
full three-year clearance from OMB.
The purpose of the revision is to
remove the information collection
requirements that are contained in
Section 47 CFR 25.119 from OMB
Control No. 3060–1108. The information
collection requirements were
consolidated into collection 3060–0678.
OMB approved the consolidation on
August 15, 2014.
A consummation is a party’s
notification to the Commission that a
transaction (assignment or transfer of
control of authorization) has been
completed. A consummation is
applicable to all international
telecommunications and satellite
services, such as International High
Frequency (IHF), Section 214
Applications (ITC), and Submarine
Cable Landing Licenses (SCL).
Without this collection of
information, the Commission would not
have critical information such as a
change in a controlling interest in the
ownership of the licensee. The
Commission would not be able to carry
out its duties under the
Communications Act and to determine
the qualifications of applicants to
provide international
telecommunications service, including
applicants that are affiliated with
foreign entities, and to determine
whether and under what conditions the
authorizations are in the public interest,
convenience, and necessity.
Furthermore, without this collection of
information, the Commission would not
be able to maintain effective oversight of
U.S. providers of international
telecommunications services that are
affiliated with, or involved in certain comarketing or similar arrangements with,
foreign entities that have market power.

ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
As part of its continuing effort
to reduce paperwork burdens, and as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520), the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC or Commission)
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collections.
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 OMB 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 OMB
control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before December 15,
2014. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, you should

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, not-for-profit institutions,
and state, local, or tribal government.
Number of Respondents: 25
respondents; 33 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 3
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality with
this collection of information.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
submitting this expiring information
collection to the Office of Management

Section 74.605 requires that licensees of
TV pickup stations in the 6875–7125
MHz and 12700–13200 MHz bands shall
register their stationary receive sites
using the Commission’s Universal
Licensing System. TV pickup licensees
record their receive-only sites in the
Universal Licensing System (ULS)
database, including all fixed service
locations. The TV pickup stations,
licensed under Part 74 of the
Commission’s rules, make it possible for
television and radio stations and
networks to transmit program material
from the sites of breaking news stories
or other live events to television studios
for inclusion in broadcast programs, to
transmit programming material from
studios to broadcasting transmitters for
delivery to consumers’ televisions and
radios, and to transmit programs
between broadcast stations. Registering
the receive sites will allow analysis to
determine whether Fixed Service links
will cause interference to TV pickup
stations.
