FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Benish Shah, Office of Managing Director, (202) 418–7866. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060–0207. Title: Part 11—Emergency Alert System (EAS). Form Number: Not applicable. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Businesses or other forprofit; not-for-profit institutions; and state, local or tribal government. Number of Respondents and Responses: 3,569,028 respondents; 3,569,028 responses. Estimated Time per Response: .0229776 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and recordkeeping requirement. VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:05 Jan 22, 2015 Jkt 235001 Obligation to Respond: Voluntary response for business or other for-profit and not-for-respondents. Mandatory response for state, local or tribal government. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C sections 154(i) and 606 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Total Annual Burden: 82,008 hours. Total Annual Cost: N/A. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for confidentiality. Needs and Uses: The Commission seeking and extension of this information collection in order to obtain the full three year approval from OMB. There are no changes in any of the reporting and/or recordkeeping requirements. There is no change to the Commission’s previous burden estimated. The Commission established a voluntary electronic method of complying with the reporting that EAS participants must complete as part of the national EAS test. This electronic submission system will impose a lesser burden on EAS test participants because they can input electronically (via a webbased interface) the same information into a confidential database that the Commission would use to monitor and assess the test. Test participants would submit the identifying data prior to the test date. On the day of the test, EAS participants would be able to input immediate test results. They would input the remaining data called for by our reporting rules within the 45 day period. Structuring an electronic reporting system in this fashion will allow the participants to populate the database with known information prior to the test, and thus be able to provide the Commission with actual test data, both close to real-time and within a reasonable period in a minimally burdensome fashion.
