Title: 73.1230, 74.165, 74.432, 74.564, 74.664, 74.765, 74.832, 74.1265, Posting or Filing of Station License. Form No.: Not applicable. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Not-for-profit Institutions; Federal Government and State, local or tribal government. Number of Respondents and Responses: 2,784 respondents and 2,784 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 0.083 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement, recordkeeping requirement, and third party disclosure requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in Section 154(i) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Total Annual Burden: 231 hours. Total Annual Cost: $24,860. 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: On June 2, 2014, the Commission released a Second Report and Order, FCC 14–62, WT Docket Nos. asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:55 Feb 27, 2015 Jkt 235001 08–166 and 08–167 and ET Docket No. 10–24, ‘‘Revisions to Rules Authorizing the Operation of Low Power Auxiliary Stations in the 698–806 MHz Band.’’ This order expanded eligibility for low power auxiliary station licenses under Part 74 by adding two new categories of eligible entities: ‘‘large venue owner or operator’’ and ‘‘professional sound company.’’ To be eligible for a Part 74 license, a large venue owner or operator and a professional sound company must routinely use 50 or more low power auxiliary station devices, where the use of such devices is an integral part of major events or productions. The Commission seeks OMB approval for a revision of this currently approved information collection to increase the number of respondents by 200 and the number of responses by 200 to reflect the estimated increase in licensed low power auxiliary station operators who will be subject to the requirement at section 74.832(j) to retain the station license in the licensee’s files or post it at the transmitter or control point of the stations. OMB Control No.: 3060–1155. Title: Sections 15.713, 15.714, 15.715 and 15.717, TV White Space Broadcast Bands. Form No.: Not Applicable. Type of Review: Revision of an existing collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; not-for-profit institutions; Federal government; and state, local or tribal government. Number of Respondents and Responses: 2,000 respondents and 2,000 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 2.0 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement, recordkeeping requirement and third party disclosure requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 47 U.S.C. 154(1), 302, 303(c), 303(f), and 307. Total Annual Burden: 4,000 hours. Total Annual Cost: $100,000. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s). Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The Commission is not requesting respondents to submit confidential information to the Commission. Respondents may request confidential treatment of such information under 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission’s rules. Needs and Uses: On June 2, 2014, the Commission released a Second Report and Order, FCC 14–62, WT Docket Nos. 08–166 and 08–167 and ET Docket No. PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 11199 10–24, ‘‘Revisions to Rules Authorizing the Operation of Low Power Auxiliary Stations in the 698–806 MHz Band.’’ This order expanded eligibility for low power auxiliary station licenses under Part 74 by adding two new categories of eligible entities: ‘‘Large venue owner or operator’’ and ‘‘professional sound company.’’ The Commission is now requesting OMB approval for a revision of this information collection to increase by 200 the number of licensed low power auxiliary station operators who will be able to register in the database under 47 CFR 15.713(h)(8) to reflect the estimated number of entities that will become eligible for a license under the Second Report and Order and which will register in the database. Because these newly-eligible licensees would likely have been able to register on an unlicensed basis under 47 CFR 15.713(h)(9) (and now will register as licensees instead), the Commission is also decreasing by 200 the number of unlicensed low power auxiliary station operators who will register in the database on an unlicensed basis under 47 CFR 15.713 (h)(9). The Commission seeks Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for a revised information collection for an increase in the number of LPAS licensees that will register under 47 CFR 15.713(h)(8) and a decrease in the number of unlicensed wireless microphone users that will register on an unlicensed basis under 47 CFR 15.713(h)(9).

because of a failure to timely approve or deny the request, the deemed 
grant does not become effective until the applicant notifies the

deemed granted.
    These collections are necessary to effectuate the rule changes that
