Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 197 / Friday, October 13, 2017 / Notices
and Order that, prior to the auction, it
would establish a map of areas
presumptively eligible for MF–II
support based on the most recently
available FCC Form 477 mobile wireless
coverage data, and provide a limited
timeframe for parties to challenge those
initial determinations during the preauction process.
The Commission received serval
petitions for reconsideration of the
MF–II Report and Order, including one
asking it to reconsider the decision to
use existing FCC Form 477 data as the
basis for determining the map of areas
presumptively eligible for MF–II
support, and offering an industry
consensus proposal asking the
Commission to undertake a new, onetime data collection with specified data
parameters tailored to MF–II to
determine the areas in which there is
deployment of qualified Long Term
Evolution (LTE). On August 4, 2017, the
Commission released an Order on
Reconsideration and Second Report and
Order (FCC 17–102) in which it, among
other things, reconsidered its earlier
decision to use FCC Form 477 data to
compile the map of areas presumptively
eligible for MF–II support. The
Commission decided it would instead
conduct a new, one-time data collection
of 4G LTE coverage data that will be
used for this purpose, concluding that
for purposes of implementing MF–II
expeditiously, this approach will
provide the Commission and interested
parties with the best available starting
point for the challenge process and
should result in fewer and more
narrowly-focused challenges regarding
representations of coverage.
Only those providers that have
previously reported 4G LTE coverage in
FCC Form 477 and have qualified 4G
LTE coverage (defined by download
speeds of 5 Mbps at the cell edge with
80 percent probability and a 30 percent
loading factor) will be required to
submit data under this new, one-time
information collection. Such providers
will be required to file propagation
maps and model details with the
Commission indicating their current 4G
LTE coverage in accordance with a
public notice that will be issued in
advance of the start of period within
which providers must make their filings
that provides instructions for how to file
the data submission, including a data
specification, formatting information,
and any other technical parameters that
may be necessary for such filings. The
Commission will use the new coverage
data, in conjunction with subsidy data
available from the Universal Service
Administrative Company (USAC), to

Proposed Project
Pulmonary Function Testing Course
Approval Program (OMB Control
Number 0920–0138, Expired 4/30/
2017)—Reinstatement with Change—
National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
NIOSH has the responsibility under
the Occupational Safety and Health
Administration’s Cotton Dust Standard,
29 CFR 1920.1043, for approving
courses to train technicians to perform
pulmonary function testing in the cotton
industry. Successful completion of a
NIOSH-approved course is mandatory
under this Standard. In addition,
regulations at 42 CFR 37.95(a) specify
that persons administering spirometry
tests for the national Coal Workers’
Health Surveillance Program must
successfully complete a NIOSHapproved spirometry training course
and maintain a valid certificate by
periodically completing NIOSHapproved spirometry refresher training
courses. Also, 29 CFR
1910.1053(i)(2)(iv), 29 CFR
1910.1053(i)(3), 29 CFR
1926.1153(h)(2)(iv) and 29 CFR
1926.1153(h)(3) specify that pulmonary
function tests for initial and periodic
examinations in general industry and
construction, performed under the
respirable crystalline silica standard
should be administered by a spirometry
technician with a current certificate
from a NIOSH-approved spirometry
course. NIOSH is requesting a three-year
approval.
To carry out its responsibility, NIOSH
maintains a Pulmonary Function
Training Course Approval Program. The
program consists of an application
submitted by potential sponsors
(universities, hospitals, and private
consulting firms) who seek NIOSH
approval to conduct courses, and if
approved, notification to NIOSH of any
course or faculty changes during the
approval period, which is limited to five
years. The primary focus of this program
is to verify that each course sponsor
maintains faculty expertise and
curriculum content that supports the
training of technicians to perform
spirometry testing under current
professional clinical-practice guidelines.
NIOSH reviews the application form
and added materials, including an
agenda, curriculum vitae, and course
materials to determine if the applicant
has developed a program that adheres to
the criteria required in the Standard.
