SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060–0329. Title: Section 2.955, Equipment Authorization—Verification (Retention of Records). Form No.: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit and not-for-profit institutions. Number of Respondents: 8,000 respondents; 8,000 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 18 hours (average). Frequency of Response: One time and on occasion reporting requirements, recordkeeping requirement; and Third party disclosure 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), 302 and 303(r). Total Annual Burden: 144,000 hours. Total Annual Cost: $1,600,000. Privacy Impact Assessment: N/A. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Commission rules require equipment testing to determine performance and compliance with FCC standards. This testing is typically done by independent testing laboratories whose measurement facility has been reviewed by the Commission, or by an accrediting organization recognized by the Commission. Needs and Uses: This collection will be submitted as an extension (no change in reporting requirements), after this 60 day comment period to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in order to obtain the full three year clearance. Section 2.955 describes for each equipment device subject to verification, the responsible party, as shown in 47 CFR 2.909 shall maintain the records listed as follows: (1) A record of the original design drawings and specifications and all changes that have been made that may affect compliance with the requirements of § 2.953. (2) A record of the procedures used for production inspection and testing (if tests were performed) to insure the conformance required by § 2.953. (Statistical production line emission testing is not required.) (3) A record of the measurements made on an appropriate test site that demonstrates compliance with the applicable regulations in this chapter. The record shall: (i) Indicate the actual date all testing was performed; VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:19 Dec 05, 2014 Jkt 235001 (ii) State the name of the test laboratory, company, or individual performing the verification testing. The Commission may request additional information regarding the test site, the test equipment or the qualifications of the company or individual performing the verification tests; (iii) Contain a description of how the device was actually tested, identifying the measurement procedure and test equipment that was used; (iv) Contain a description of the equipment under test (EUT) and support equipment connected to, or installed within, the EUT; (v) Identify the EUT and support equipment by trade name and model number and, if appropriate, by FCC Identifier and serial number; (vi) Indicate the types and lengths of connecting cables used and how they were arranged or moved during testing; (vii) Contain at least two drawings or photographs showing the test set-up for the highest line conducted emission and showing the test set-up for the highest radiated emission. These drawings or photographs must show enough detail to confirm other information contained in the test report. Any photographs used must be focused originals without glare or dark spots and must clearly show the test configuration used; (viii) List all modifications, if any, made to the EUT by the testing company or individual to achieve compliance with the regulations in this chapter; (ix) Include all of the data required to show compliance with the appropriate regulations in this chapter; and (x) Contain, on the test report, the signature of the individual responsible for testing the product along with the name and signature of an official of the responsible party, as designated in § 2.909. (4) For equipment subject to the provisions in part 15 of this chapter, the records shall indicate if the equipment was verified pursuant to the transition provisions contained in § 15.37 of this chapter. (b) The records listed in paragraph (a) of this section shall be retained for two years after the manufacture of said equipment item has been permanently discontinued, or until the conclusion of an investigation or a proceeding if the manufacturer or importer is officially notified that an investigation or any other administrative proceeding involving his equipment has been instituted. The Commission needs and requires the information under FCC Rules at 47 CFR parts 15 and 18, that RF equipment manufacturers (respondents) ‘‘self determine’’ their responsibility for PO 00000 Frm 00061 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 72681 adherence to these rules, as guided by the following criteria: (a) Whether the RF equipment device that is being marketed complies with the applicable Commission Rules; and (b) If the operation of the equipment is consistent with the initially documented test results, as reported to the Commission. The information collection is essential to controlling potential interference to radio communications. (a) Companies that manufacture RF equipment are the anticipated respondents to this information collection. (b) This respondent ‘‘public’’ generally remains the same, although the types of equipment devices that they manufacture may change in response to changing technologies and to new spectrum allocations made by the Commission. (c) In addition, the Commission may establish new technical operating standards in response to these changing technologies and in allocation spectrum, which these RF equipment manufacturers must meet to receive their equipment authorization from the FCC. (d) However, the process that RF equipment manufacturers must follow to verify their compliance, as mandated by 47 CFR 2.955 of FCC Rules, will not change despite new technical standards established for specific equipment. This information collection, therefore, applies to a variety of equipment, which is currently manufactured in the future, and that operates under varying technical standards.

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for confidentiality with this collection of information. Needs and Uses: On August 13, 2014, the Commission released the Order, FCC 14–118, published at 79 FR 55367, September 16, 2014, adopting final rules—containing information collection requirements—to enable the Commission to implement text-to-911 service pursuant to the Second Report and Order, FCC 14–118, released August 13, 2014. The Second Report and Order adopts new rules to commence the implementation of text-to-911 service with an initial deadline of December 31, 2014 for all covered text providers to be capable of supporting text-to-911 service. The Second Report and Order also provides that covered text providers then have a six-month implementation period—they must begin routing all 911 text messages to a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) by June 30, 2015 or within six months of a valid PSAP request for text-to-911 service, whichever is later. To implement these requirements, the Commission seeks to collect information primarily for a database in which PSAPs will voluntarily register that they are technically ready to receive text messages to 911. As PSAPs become textready, they may either register in the PSAP database (or, if the database is not yet available, submit a notification to PS Docket Nos. 10–255 and 11–153), or provide other written notification reasonably acceptable to a covered text messaging provider. Either measure taken by the PSAP shall constitute sufficient notification pursuant to the adopted rules in the Second Report and Order. PSAPs and covered text providers may mutually agree to an alternative implementation timeframe (other than six months). Covered text providers must notify the FCC of the dates and terms of the alternate timeframe that they have mutually agreed on with PSAPs within 30 days of the parties’ agreement. Additionally, the rules adopted by the Second Report and Order also include other information collections for third party notifications that need to be effective in order to implement text-to911, including necessary notifications to consumers, covered text providers, and the Commission. These notifications are essential to ensure that all of the affected parties are aware of the limitations, capabilities, and status of text-to-911 services. These information collections will enable the Commission PO 00000 Frm 00062 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 to meet objectives to commence the implementation of text-to-911 service as of December 31, 2014 in furtherance of its core mission to ensure the public’s safety.
