Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 225 / Friday, November 24, 2017 / Notices
Subpart CC, the Commission adopted
definitions of ambiguous terms,
procedural requirements, and remedies
to provide guidance to all stakeholders
on the proper interpretation of the
provision and to enforce its
requirements, reducing delays in the
review process for wireless
infrastructure modifications and
facilitating the rapid deployment of
wireless infrastructure.
The following are the information
collection requirements in connection
with Subpart CC of Part 1 of the
Commission’s rules:
• 47 CFR 1.40001(c)(3)(i)—To toll the
60-day review timeframe on grounds
that an application is incomplete, the
reviewing State or local government
must provide written notice to the
applicant within 30 days of receipt of
the application, clearly and specifically
delineating all missing documents or
information. Such delineated
information is limited to documents or
information meeting the standard under
paragraph (c)(1) of Section 1.140001.
• 47 CFR 1.140001(c)(3)(iii)—
Following a supplemental submission
from the applicant, the State or local
government will have 10 days to notify
the applicant in writing if the
supplemental submission did not
provide the information identified in
the State or local government’s original
notice delineating missing information.
The timeframe for review is tolled in the
case of second or subsequent notices of
incompleteness pursuant to the
procedures identified in paragraph
(c)(3). Second or subsequent notices of
incompleteness may not specify missing
documents or information that were not
delineated in the original notice of
incompleteness.
• 47 CFR 1.140001(c)(4)—If a request
is deemed granted because of a failure
to timely approve or deny the request,
the deemed grant does not become
effective until the applicant notifies the
applicable reviewing authority in
writing after the review period has
expired (accounting for any tolling) that
the application has been deemed
granted.
These collections are necessary to
effectuate the rule changes that
implement and enforce the
requirements of Section 6409(a).
Federal Communications Commission.

(OMB)
Federal Communications
Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) has received Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
approval, via a non-substantive change
request, of changes to information
collection requirements associated with
FCC Form 323–E (Ownership Report for
Noncommercial Broadcast Stations),
which the Commission adopted in the
Order on Reconsideration, FCC 17–42,
published at 82 FR 21718, May 10,
2017. An agency may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number, and no person is
required to respond to a collection of
information unless it displays a
currently valid control number.
Comments concerning the accuracy of
the burden estimates and any
suggestions for reducing the burden
should be directed to the person listed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The total annual reporting burdens
and costs for the respondents are as
follows:
OMB Control Number: 3060–0084.
OMB Approval Date: May 31, 2017.
OMB Expiration Date: November 30,
2019.
Title: Ownership Report for
Noncommercial Educational Broadcast

Total Annual Burden: 3,867 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $2,319,900.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
FCC Form 323–E collects two types of
information from respondents: PII in the
form of names, addresses, job titles and
demographic information; and FCC
Registration Numbers (FRNs).
The FCC/MB–1 SORN, which was
approved on November 28, 2016 (81 FR
72047), covers the collection,
purpose(s), storage, safeguards, and
disposal of the PII that individual
respondents may submit on Form 323–
E, as required under the Privacy Act of
1974, as amended (5 U.S.C. 552a). The
Commission is drafting a privacy
statement to inform applicants
(respondents) of the Commission’s need
to obtain the information and the
protections that the Commission has in
place to protect the PII.
FRNs are assigned to applicants who
complete FCC Form 160 (OMB Control
No. 3060–0917). Form 160 currently
requires applicants for FRNs to provide
their Taxpayer Information Number
(TIN) and/or Social Security Number
(SSN). The FCC’s electronic
Commission Registration System
(CORES) then provides each registrant
with a CORES FRN, which identifies the
registrant in his/her subsequent dealings
with the FCC. This is done to protect the
individual’s privacy. Form 160 requires
applicants for Restricted Use FRNs to
provide an alternative set of identifying
information that does not include the
individual’s full SSN: His/her full name,
residential address, date of birth, and
only the last four digits of his/her SSN.
Restricted Use FRNs may be used in lieu
of CORES FRNs only on broadcast
ownership reports and only for
individuals (not entities) reported as
attributable interest holders. The
Commission maintains a SORN, FCC/
OMD–25, Financial Operations
Information System (FOIS), to cover the
collection, purpose(s), storage,
safeguards, and disposal of the PII that
individual respondents may submit on
Form 160. Form 160 includes a privacy
statement to inform applicants
(respondents) of the Commission’s need
to obtain the information and the
protections that the FCC has in place to
protect the PII.
Privacy Act: The Commission is
drafting a Privacy Impact Assessment
(PIA) for the personally identifiable
information (PII) that is covered by the
system of records notice (SORN), FCC/
MB–1, Ownership Reports for
Commercial and Noncommercial
Broadcast Stations. Upon completion of
the PIA, it will be posted on the FCC’s
Web site, as required by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 225 / Friday, November 24, 2017 / Notices
Memorandum, M–03–22 (September 22,
2003).
Needs and Uses: On January 20, 2016,
the Commission released a Report and
Order, Second Report and Order, and
Order on Reconsideration in MB Docket
Nos. 07–294, 10–103, and MD Docket
No. 10–234 (323 and 323–E Order). The
323 and 323–E Order refines the
collection of data reported on FCC Form
323, Ownership Report for Commercial
Broadcast Stations, and FCC Form
323–E, Ownership Report for
Noncommercial Broadcast Stations.
Specifically, the 323 and 323–E Order
implements a Restricted Use FRN
(RUFRN) within the Commission’s
Registration System (CORES) that
individuals may use solely for the
purpose of broadcast ownership report
filings; eliminates the availability of the
Special Use FRN (SUFRN) for broadcast
station ownership reports, except in
very limited circumstances; prescribes
revisions to Form 323–E that conform
the reporting requirements for
noncommercial educational (NCE)
broadcast stations more closely to those
for commercial stations; and makes a
number of significant changes to the
Commission’s reporting requirements
that reduce the filing burdens on
broadcasters, streamline the process,
and improve data quality.
On April 21, 2017, the Commission
released an Order on Reconsideration in
MB Docket No. 07–294 and MD Docket
No. 10–23 (323–E Reconsideration
Order). The 323–E Reconsideration
Order expands the option to use
Item No.

of a new noncommercial educational
AM, FM, or television station must file
Form 323–E to update the initial report
or to certify the continuing accuracy and
completeness of the previously filed
report on the date that the Permittee
applies for a license to cover the
construction permit.
In the case of organizational
structures that include holding
companies or other forms of indirect
ownership, a separate Form 323–E must
be filed for each entity in the
organizational structure that has an
attributable interest in the Licensee or
Permittee.

SUFRNs on Form 323–E. This action
addresses several petitions for
reconsideration of the 323 and 323–E
Order and properly balances the
Commission’s need to improve the
integrity and usability of its broadcast
ownership data with the concerns raised
in the petitions for reconsideration.
Licensees of noncommercial
educational AM, FM, and television
broadcast stations must file FCC Form
323–E every two years. Pursuant to the
new filing procedures adopted in the
323 and 323–E Order, Form 323–E shall
be filed by December 1 in all oddnumbered years. Form 323 shall be filed
by December 1 in all odd-numbered
years. On September 1, 2017, the
Commission’s Media Bureau released an
Order in MB Docket No. 07–294, DA
17–813, postponing the opening of the
2017 biennial filing window for the
submission of broadcast ownership
reports on FCC Forms 323 and 323–E
and extending the 2017 filing deadline.
Biennial Ownership Reports shall
provide information accurate as of
October 1 of the year in which the
Report is filed.
In addition, Licensees and Permittees
of noncommercial educational AM, FM,
and television stations must file Form
323–E following the consummation of a
transfer of control or an assignment of
a noncommercial educational AM, FM,
or television station license or

Title: Advanced Methods to Target and Eliminate Unlawful Robocalls (CG Docket No. 17–59)).
Summary: The Commission will consider a Report and Order that would expressly authorize voice
service providers to block certain types of robocalls that falsely appear to be from telephone numbers that do not or cannot make outgoing calls. It also would prohibit voice service providers from
blocking 911 calls under these rules, encourage voice service providers to provide a mechanism to
allow subscribers whose legitimate calls are blocked in error to stop such blocking, and clarify that
providers may exclude calls blocked under these rules from their call completion reports.
Title: Use of Spectrum Bands Above 24 GHz For Mobile Radio Services (GN Docket No. 14–177);
Establishing a More Flexible Framework to Facilitate Satellite Operations in the 27.5–28.35 GHz
and 37.5–40 GHz Bands (IB Docket No. 15–256); Amendment of Parts 1, 22, 24, 27, 74, 80, 90,
95, and 101 To Establish Uniform License Renewal, Discontinuance of Operation, and Geographic
Partitioning and Spectrum Disaggregation Rules and Policies for Certain Wireless Radio Services
(WT Docket No. 10–112); Allocation and Designation of Spectrum for Fixed-Satellite Services in
the 37.5–38.5 GHz, 40.5–41.5 GHz and 48.2–50.2 GHz Frequency Bands; Allocation of Spectrum
to Upgrade Fixed and Mobile Allocations in the 40.5–42.5 GHz Frequency Band; Allocations of
Spectrum in the 46.9–47.0 GHz Frequency Band for Wireless Services; and Allocation of Spectrum
in the 37.0–38.0 and 40.0–40.5 GHz for Government Operations (IB Docket No 97–95).
Summary: The Commission will consider a Second Report and Order, Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Order on Reconsideration, and Memorandum Opinion and Order that would
make available 1,700 MHz of additional high-frequency spectrum for flexible terrestrial wireless
use; provide 4 gigahertz for satellite use; and adopt, refine, or affirm a number of service rules to
promote robust deployment in these bands, and a Second Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
seeking comment on certain related earth station, buildout, and licensing issues.
Title: Accelerating Wireless Broadband Deployment by Removing Barriers to Infrastructure Investment (WT Docket No. 17–79).
