Number of Respondents: 10 respondents; 20 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 20 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and recordkeeping requirement. Obligation to Respond: Voluntary. Statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in 47 U.S.C. 154(i) and 601 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Total Annual Burden: 200 hours. Total Annual Cost: N/A. Privacy Impact Assessment: N/A. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for confidentiality.

Part 11 contains rules and regulations addressing the nation’s Emergency Alert System (EAS). The EAS provides the President with the capability to provide PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 immediate communications and information to the general public at the national, state and local area level during periods of national emergency. The EAS also provides state and local governments and the National Weather Service with the capability to provide immediate communications and information to the general public concerning emergency situations posting a threat to life and property. The Commission amended its Part 11 rules governing the EAS to more fully codify the existing obligation to process Common Alerting Protocol (CAP)formatted alert messages adopted in the Second Report and Order. Certification procedures for meeting general certification requirements are under 47 CFR 11.34. Paragraphs 164– 167, 107–171, and 175–176 in the Fifth Report and Order, establish that integrated CAP-capable EAS devices and intermediate devices that are used in tandem with legacy EAS equipment are subject to the Commission’s existing device certification requirements set forth in the Commission’s Part 2 equipment authorization rules. These paragraphs also establish specific procedures by which EAS device manufacturers can update existing device certifications and obtain new certifications, which generally involve the submission of test data and other materials to the FCC. The information collected by the Commission is used to confirm that EAS devices comply with the technical and performance requirements set forth in the EAS rules and other applicable rules maintained by the Commission. These rules are designed to minimize electrical radiofrequency interference and to ensure that the EAS, including individual devices within the EAS, operate as intended.

    The Federal Communications Commission (``Commission'') plans to 
implement and release to the public an ``Application for an 
International Broadcast Station License'' (FCC Form 421-IB). The FCC 
Form 421-IB will be used by applicants to request licenses to operate 
international broadcast stations. The FCC Form 421-IB has not been 
implemented yet due to a lack of budget resources and technical staff. 
After the form has been implemented and the Commission has obtained 
final approval from the OMB, applicants will file the FCC Form 421-IB 
with the Commission in lieu of the ``Application for an International, 
Experimental Television, Experimental Facsimile, or a Developmental 
Broadcast Station,'' (FCC Form 310).
    (Note: The Commission received approval from the OMB for the FCC 
Form 310 under OMB Control No 3060-1035). In the interim, applicants 
will continue to file the FCC Form 310 with the Commission.
    The Commission stated previously that the FCC Form 421-IB will be 
available to applicants in the International Bureau Filing System

new Consolidated Licensing System (CLS) that will replace MyIBFS. 
Therefore, the FCC Form 421-IB will be made available to the public in

    The information collected is used by the Commission to assign 
frequencies for use by international broadcast stations, to grant 
authority to operate such stations and to determine if interference or 
adverse propagation conditions exist that may impact the operation of 
such stations. If the Commission did not collect this information, it 
would not be in a position to effectively coordinate spectrum for 
international broadcasters or to act for entities in times of frequency 
interference or adverse propagation conditions. The orderly nature of 
the provision of international broadcast service would be in jeopardy 
without the Commission's involvement.
