Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 146 / Tuesday, August 1, 2017 / Notices
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: New collection.
Respondents: State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 55 respondents: 110
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 0.25
hours for the initial notification.
Frequency of Response: One-time
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for requiring licensees to
submit this information enter into the
written agreements is contained in the
Middle Class Tax Relief and Job
Creation Act of 2012, Public Law 112–
96, 126 Stat. 156 §§ 6001–6303, 6413
(codified at 47 U.S.C. 1401–1443, 1457).
Total Annual Burden: 26,414 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Alternative state plans are very likely to
contain proprietary information as well
as information whose disclosure could
compromise network security. Parties
may therefore seek confidential
treatment of any filing under our Part 0
rules, including the use of a protective
order process to allow other those
granted party status to the restricted
proceeding access to the information on
a confidential basis.
Needs and Uses: This collection will
be submitted as a new collection after
this 60-day comment period to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) in order to obtain the full threeyear clearance. The purpose of requiring
this collection is to comply with Middle
Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of
2012. The Middle Class Tax Relief and
Job Creation Act of 2012 provides that
‘‘the Governor shall choose whether to
participate in the deployment of the
nationwide, interoperable broadband
network as proposed by [FirstNet,] or
conduct its own deployment of a radio
access network in such State.’’ If a
Governor chooses not to participate in
the NPSBN, Section 6302(e)(3)(A) of the
Act requires the Governor to ‘‘notify
[FirstNet], the NTIA, and the
Commission of such decision.’’ The Act
also states that an opt-out state ‘‘shall
submit’’ to the Commission an
‘‘alternative plan’’ for ‘‘the construction,
maintenance, operation, and
improvements’’ of the RAN within the
state. Section 3(C)(ii) of the Act
mandates that ‘‘upon submission of this
plan, the Commission shall approve or
disapprove of the plan.’’
We require that either the Governor or
the Governor’s his duly authorized
designee may provide notification of the
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 241001
Governor’s decision. The opt-out
notification to the Commission must
also include a certification that the state
is providing simultaneous notice of its
opt-out decision to both to NTIA and
FirstNet. To facilitate the electronic
filing of opt-out notifications, we will
establish the email address opt-out@
fcc.gov as the address for this purpose.
Each opt-out state will have 60 days
from the completion of its Request For
Proposal (240 days from the date of its
opt-out notification to the Commission)
to file an alternative state plan via the
secure email address opt-out@fcc.gov or
via certified mail to the Secretary’s
office.

A Data Network Identification Code
(DNIC) is a unique, four-digit number
designed to provide discrete
identification of individual public data
networks. The DNIC is intended to
identify and permit automated
switching of data traffic to particular
networks. The FCC grants the DNICs to
operators of public data networks on an
international protocol. The operators of
public data networks file an application
for a DNIC on the Internet-based,
International Bureau Filing System
(IBFS). The DNIC is obtained free of
charge on a one-time only basis unless
there is a change in ownership or the
owner chooses to relinquish the code to
the FCC. The Commission’s lack of an
assignment of DNICs to operators of
public data networks would result in
technical problems that prevent the
identification and automated switching
of data traffic to particular networks.
