    Needs and Uses: On January 29, 2010, the Commission released the 
Order, Digital Audio Broadcasting Systems and Their Impact on the 
Terrestrial Radio Broadcast Service (Order), DA 10-208, MM Docket 99-
325. The Order allowed: (1) Eligible authorized FM stations to commence 
operation of FM digital facilities with digital effective radiated 
power (ERP) up to -14 dBc upon notice to the Commission on Form 335 
(the licensee of a super-powered FM station must file an informal 
request for any increase in the station's FM Digital ERP). (2) 
Licensees to submit an application to the Media Bureau, in the form of 
an informal request, for any increase in FM Digital ERP beyond 6 dB. 
(3) Licensees submitting such a request must use a simplified method 
set forth in the Order to determine the proponent station's maximum 
permissible FM Digital ERP. (4) In situations where the simplified 
method is not applicable due to unusual terrain or other environmental 
or technical considerations or when it produces anomalous FM Digital 
ERP results, the Bureau will accept applications for FM Digital ERP in 
excess of -14 dBc on a case-by-case basis when accompanied by a 
detailed showing containing a complete explanation of the prediction 
methodology used as well as data, maps and sample calculations. These 
information collection requirements have not changed since they were 
last approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
    These information collection requirements are also a part of this 
collection and remain unchanged:
    47 CFR 73.404(b) states in situations where interference to other 
stations is anticipated or actually occurs, AM licensees may, upon 
notification to the Commission, reduce the power of the primary Digital 
Audio Broadcasting (DAB) sidebands by up to 6 dB. Any greater reduction 
of sideband power requires prior authority from the Commission via the 
filing of a request for special temporary authority or an informal 
letter request for modification of license.
    47 CFR 73.404(e) states licensees (commercial and noncommercial AM 
and FM radio stations) must provide notification to the Commission in 
Washington, DC, within 10 days of commencing in-band, on channel (IBOC) 
digital operation. The notification must include the following 
information: (1) Call sign and facility identification number of the 
station; (2) date on which IBOC operation commenced; (3) certification 
that the IBOC DAB facilities conform to permissible hybrid 
specifications; (4) name and telephone number of a technical 
representative the Commission can call in the event of interference; 
(5) FM digital effective radiated power used and certification that the 
FM analog effective radiated power remains as authorized; (6) 
transmitter power output; if separate analog and digital transmitters 
are used,

[[Page 76020]]

the power output for each transmitter; (7) if applicable, any reduction 
in an AM station's primary digital carriers; (8) if applicable, the 
geographic coordinates, elevation data, and license file number of the 
auxiliary antenna employed by an FM station as a separate digital 
antenna; (9) if applicable, for FM systems employing interleaved 
antenna bays, a certification that adequate filtering and/or isolation 
equipment has been installed to prevent spurious emissions in excess of 
the limits specified in Sec.  73.317; (10) a certification that the 
operation will not cause human exposure to levels of radio frequency 
radiation in excess of the limits specified in Sec.  1.1310 of the 
Commission's rules and is therefore categorically excluded from 
environmental processing pursuant to Sec.  1.1306(b). Any station that 
cannot certify compliance must submit an environmental assessment 
(``EA'') pursuant to Sec.  1.1311 and may not commence IBOC operation 
until such EA is ruled upon by the Commission.
