Needs and Uses: The collection is

(OMB) for the approval of information
collection requirements contained in the
Commission’s Incentive Auction Order,
FCC 14–50, which adopted rules for
holding an Incentive Auction, as
required by the Middle Class Tax Relief
and Job Creation Act of 2012 (Spectrum
Act). The information gathered in this
collection will be used allow Class A
television stations to make changes in
their authorized facilities. Specifically,
Class A stations assigned to a new
channel following the Incentive Auction
must file a minor change application on
FCC Form 2100, Schedule E following
release of the Channel Reassignment
Public Notice. Under certain
circumstances, licensees of stations
reassigned to a new channel within
their existing band to propose
transmission facilities in their
construction permit applications that
will extend their coverage contours. In
addition, there will be a priority
processing window for licensees of
reassigned stations, UHF-to-VHF
stations, or High-VHF-to-Low-VHF
stations that, for reasons beyond their
control, are unable to construct facilities
that meet the technical parameters
specified in the Channel Reassignment
Public Notice, or the permissible
contour coverage variance from those
technical parameters specified in
section 73.3700(b)(1)(ii) or (iii). Channel
sharee stations file a minor change
application for a construction permit for
the channel on which the channel
sharer operates at least sixty (60) days
prior to the date by which it must
terminate operations on its pre-auction
channel and must include a copy of the
channel sharing agreement. In addition,
subject to limitations set out in the
rules, a Class A licensee of a reassigned
station, a UHF-to-VHF station, or a
High-VHF-to-Low-VHF station may file
a minor change application for a
construction permit on FCC Form 2100
Schedule E during a filing window to be
announced by the Media Bureau by
public notice, in order to request a
change in the technical parameters
specified in the Channel Reassignment
Public Notice with respect to height
above average terrain (HAAT), effective
radiated power (ERP), or transmitter
location that would be considered a
minor change under sections
73.3572(a)(1), (2) or 74.787(b). FCC
Form 2100, Schedule E is also being
modified to accommodate new channel
sharing provisions.
