Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 7 / Wednesday, January 11, 2017 / Notices
of a non-applicant Tribe; (ii) serves at
least 2,000 people living on Tribal
lands, and (iii) the total population on
Tribal lands residing within the
station’s service contour constitutes at
least 50 percent of the total covered
population, with provision for waivers
as necessary to effectuate the goals of
the Tribal Priority. This modification
will now enable Tribes with small or
irregularly shaped lands to qualify for
the Tribal Priority.
The modifications to the
Commission’s allotment and assignment
policies adopted in the Second R&O
included a rebuttable ‘‘Urbanized Area
service presumption’’ under Priority (3),
whereby an application to locate or
relocate a station as the first local
transmission service at a community
located within an Urbanized Area, that
would place a daytime principal
community signal over 50 percent or
more of an Urbanized Area, or that
could be modified to provide such
coverage, will be presumed to be a
proposal to serve the Urbanized Area
rather than the proposed community. In
the case of an AM station, the
determination of whether a proposed
facility ‘‘could be modified’’ to cover 50
percent or more of an Urbanized Area
will be made based on the applicant’s
certification in the Section 307(b)
showing that there could be no rulecompliant minor modifications to the
proposal, based on the antenna
configuration or site, and spectrum
availability as of the filing date, that
could cause the station to place a
principal community contour over 50
percent or more of an Urbanized Area.
To the extent the applicant wishes to
rebut the Urbanized Area service
presumption, the Section 307(b)
showing must include a compelling
showing (a) that the proposed
community is truly independent from
the Urbanized Area; (b) of the
community’s specific need for an outlet
of local expression separate from the
Urbanized Area; and (c) the ability of
the proposed station to provide that
outlet.
In the case of applicants for new AM
stations making a showing under
Priority (4), other public interest
matters, an applicant that can
demonstrate that its proposed station
would provide third, fourth, or fifth
reception service to at least 25 percent
of the population in the proposed
primary service area, where the
proposed community of license has two
or fewer transmission services, may
receive a dispositive Section 307(b)
preference under Priority (4). An
applicant for a new AM station that
cannot demonstrate that it would

Jkt 241001
provide the third, fourth, or fifth
reception service to the required
population at a community with two or
fewer transmission services may also,
under Priority (4), calculate a ‘‘service
value index’’ as set forth in the case of
Greenup, Kentucky and Athens, Ohio,
Report and Order, 2 FCC Rcd 4319
(MMB 1987). If the applicant can
demonstrate a 30 percent or greater
difference in service value index
between its proposal and the next
highest ranking proposal, it can receive
a dispositive Section 307(b) preference
under Priority (4). Except under these
circumstances, dispositive Section
307(b) preferences will not be granted
under Priority (4) to applicants for new
AM stations. The Commission
specifically stated that these modified
allotment and assignment procedures
will not apply to pending applications
for new AM stations and major
modifications to AM facilities filed
during the 2004 AM Auction 84 filing
window.

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

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 March 13,
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
Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email PRA@
fcc.gov and to Nicole.Ongele@fcc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
additional information about the
information collection, contact Nicole
Ongele at (202) 418–2991.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060–XXXX.
Title: Data Breach Reporting.
Type of Review: New collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 145 respondents; 290
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 36
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirements; record keeping
requirement, one-time reporting
requirement, third party disclosure
requirement, (the required disclosures
need only be made once upon each
triggering instance, e.g. each time that a
breach occurs).
Obligation to Respond: Mandatory.
Statutory authority for this information
collection is contained in sections 1, 2,
4, 201, 202, 222, 303, 316, 338, 631, 705
of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, and section 706 of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. Sections 151, 152,
154, 201, 202, 222, 303, 316, 338, 551,
605, and 1302.
Total Annual Burden: 5,220 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No Cost.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: This
information collection affects
individuals or households; thus, there
are impacts under the Privacy Act.
However, the government is not directly
collecting this information and the
Report and Order directs carriers to

protect the information to the extent it
is customer proprietary information.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
The Commission is not requesting that
respondents submit confidential
information. Any respondent who
submits information to the Commission,
which the respondent believes is
confidential, may request confidential
treatment of such information under
section 0.459 of the Commission’s rules.
See 47 CFR Section 0.459.
Needs and Uses: Section 222 requires
that telecommunications carriers protect
the confidentiality of customer
proprietary information, and places
restrictions on the use, disclosure, or
permission of access to customer
information absent customer approval.
To include broadband Internet access
services, and also to update the privacy
rules for the changing business and
technology landscape, the Commission
adopted updated rules on October 27,
2016 (2016 Privacy Order).1 Among
other things, the rules require
telecommunications carriers, including
BIAS providers, as well as
interconnected VoIP providers, to: (1)
Notify customers, the Commission, and
the Federal Bureau of Investigation and
the Secret Service under certain
circumstances, when customer
proprietary information is breached; and
(2) maintain records of breaches and
breach notifications. Each of these
information collections is necessary to
fulfill the purposes of the Act as
implemented by the Report and Order.
Requirements to disclose breaches of
customer proprietary information are
necessary to ensure that customers and
law enforcement can act to limit the
harms caused by breaches. Similarly,
the rules’ recordkeeping requirements
for information about breaches of
customer information are necessary to
ensure continued protection of customer
information through, inter alia, the
identification of possible security
vulnerabilities.
