Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 216 / Tuesday, November 8, 2016 / Notices
3520), the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC or the Commission)
invites the general public and other
Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collection.
Comments are requested concerning:
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimate; ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and ways to
further reduce the information
collection burden on small business
concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
The FCC may not conduct or sponsor
a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control
number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
PRA that does not display a valid Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before January 9,
2017. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, you should
advise the contact listed below as soon
as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to
Cathy Williams, FCC, via email PRA@
fcc.gov and to Cathy.Williams@fcc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
additional information about the
information collection, contact Cathy
Williams, (202) 418–2918.

Files.

currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for
profit entities; Not for profit institutions;
State, Local or Tribal government;

requirement, Third party disclosure
requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. The statutory
authority that covers this information
collection is contained in Sections 151,
152, 154(i), 303, 307 and 308 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended.
Total Annual Burden: 2,087,626
Hours.
Total Annual Cost: $27,363.
Privacy Impact Assessment: The
Commission prepared a system of
records notice (SORN), FCC/MB–2,
‘‘Broadcast Station Public Inspection
Files,’’ that covers the PII contained in
the broadcast station public inspection
files located on the Commission’s Web
site. The Commission will revise
appropriate privacy requirements as
necessary to include any entities and
information added to the online public
file in this proceeding.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Most of the documents comprising the
public file consist of materials that are
not of a confidential nature.
Respondents complying with the
information collection requirements
may request that the information they
submit be withheld from disclosure. If
confidentiality is requested, such
requests will be processed in
accordance with the Commission’s
rules, 47 CFR 0.459.
In addition, the Commission has
adopted provisions that permit
respondents subject to the information
collection requirement for Shared
Service Agreements to redact
confidential or proprietary information
from their disclosures.
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirements included under
this OMB Control Number 3060–0214,
requires commercial broadcast stations
to maintain for public inspection a file
containing the material set forth in 47
CFR 73.3526.
This collection is being revised to
reflect the burden associated with the
Shared Service Agreement disclosure
requirements adopted in the 2014
Quadrennial Regulatory Review (81 FR
76220, Nov. 1, 2016, FCC 16–107, rel.
Aug. 25, 2016). The collection requires
commercial television stations to place
in their online public inspection file a
copy of every Shared Service Agreement
for the station (with the substance of
oral agreements reported in writing),
regardless of whether the agreement
involves commercial television stations
in the same market or in different
markets, with confidential or
proprietary information redacted where
appropriate. For purposes of this
collection, a Shared Service Agreement
PO 00000
Frm 00028
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
is any agreement or series of agreements
in which (1) a station provides any
station-related services, including, but
not limited to, administrative, technical,
sales, and/or programming support, to a
station that is not directly or indirectly
under common de jure control
permitted under the Commission’s
regulations; or (2) stations that are not
directly or indirectly under common de
jure control permitted under the
Commission’s regulations collaborate to
provide or enable the provision of
station-related services, including, but
not limited to, administrative, technical,
sales, and/or programming support, to
one or more of the collaborating
stations. For purposes of this collection,
the term ‘‘station’’ includes the licensee,
including any subsidiaries and affiliates,
and any other individual or entity with
an attributable interest in the station.
This information collection
requirement will provide the
Commission and the public with more
comprehensive information about the
prevalence and content of Shared
Service Agreements between television
stations, which will improve the
Commission’s and the public’s ability to
assess the potential impact of these
agreements on the Commission’s rules
and policies.
The information collection
requirements contained under 47 CFR
73.1212, 73.3527, 73.1943 and 76.1701
are still a part of the information
collection and remain unchanged since
last approved by OMB.

Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, as well as by sections 602(a),
(b), (c), (f), 603, 604 and 606 of the
WARN Act.
Total Annual Burden: 125,390 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Participating CMS Providers shall make
available upon request to the
Commission and FEMA, and to
emergency management agencies that
offer confidentiality protection at least
equal to that provided in the federal
Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)
their alert logs and information about
their approach to geo-targeting insofar
as the information pertains to alerts
initiated by that emergency management
agency.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
adopted revisions to Wireless
Emergency Alert (WEA) rules to take
advantage of the significant
technological changes and
improvements experienced by the
mobile wireless industry since the
passage of the Warning, Alert and
Response Network (WARN) Act, and
deployment of Wireless Emergency
Alerts (WEA) to improve utility of WEA
as a life-saving tool. This action will
improve alert content, delivery and
testing. With respect to information
collection, in particular, the
Commission adopted requirements for
Participating CMS Providers to log the
basic attributes of alerts they receive at
their Alert Gateway, to maintain those
logs for at least 12 months, and to make
those logs available upon request to the
Commission and FEMA, and to
emergency management agencies that
offer confidentiality protection at least
equal to that provided by federal FOIA.
The Commission also required
Participating CMS Providers to disclose
information regarding their capabilities
for geo-targeting Alert Messages upon
request to such emergency management
agencies insofar as it would pertain to
Alert Messages initiated by that
emergency management agency.
These recordkeeping and reporting
requirements have potential to increase
emergency managers’ confidence that
WEA will work as intended when
needed. This increased confidence in
system availability will encourage
emergency managers that do not
currently use WEA to become
authorized. These reporting and
recordkeeping requirements also help to
ensure a fundamental component of
system integrity. Alert logs are
necessary to establish a baseline for
PO 00000
Frm 00029
Fmt 4703

system integrity against which future
iterations of WEA can be evaluated.
Without records that can be used to
describe the quality of system integrity,
and the most common causes of
message transmission failure, it will be
difficult to evaluate how any changes to
WEA that we may adopt subsequent to
this Report and Order affect system
integrity.
