OMB Control Number: 3060–0812. Title: Regulatory Fee True-Up, Waiver or Exemption. Form Number: N/A. Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit and Not-for-profit institutions. ethrower on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES ADDRESSES: VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:50 Oct 17, 2017 Jkt 244001 Number of Respondents and Responses: 19,674 respondents and 19,774 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 0.25 hours–1 hour. Frequency of Response: Annual, on occasion and one-time reporting requirements; recordkeeping requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 158 and 47 U.S.C. 159, Sections 4(i), 4(j) 8, 9, and 303(r) of the Communications Act, as amended. Total Annual Burden: 10,016 hours. Total Annual Cost: No Cost. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s). Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Licensees or regulatees concerned about disclosure of sensitive information in any submissions to the Commission may request confidential treatment pursuant to 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission’s rules. Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) after this 60-day comment period in order to obtain the full three-year clearance from them. This information collection consolidates and revises the currently approved information collection requirements under OMB Control Numbers 3060–0655 and 3060–1064 into 3060–0812. The Commission provides broadcast licensees and commercial mobile radio service (CMRS) licensees with a ‘‘trueup’’ opportunity to update or otherwise correct their assessed fee amounts well before the actual due date for payment of regulatory fees. Providing a ‘‘true-up’’ opportunity is necessary because the data sources that are used to generate the fee assessments are subject to change at time of transfer or assignment of the license. The ‘‘true-up’’ is also an opportunity for regulatees to correct inaccuracies. Per 47 CFR 1.1119 and 1.1166, the FCC may, upon a properly submitted written request, waive or defer collection of an application fee or waive, reduce, or defer payment of a regulatory fee in a specific instance for good cause shown where such action would promote the public interest. When submitting the request, no specific form is required. FCC requires that when licensees or regulates request exemption from regulatory fees based on their non-profit status, they must file a one-time documentation sufficient to establish their non-profit status. The PO 00000 Frm 00034 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 48509 documentation may take the form of an IRS Determination Letter, a state charter indicating non-profit status, proof of church affiliation indicating tax exempt status, etc. Federal Communications Commission.
