Download as PDF tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 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. OMB Control No.: 3060–1108. 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.

Registering the receive sites will allow analysis to determine whether Fixed Service links will cause interference to TV pickup stations. tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Federal Communications Commission.
