Total Annual Burden: 2,067,853 Hours. Total Annual Cost: $27,168. Privacy Impact Assessment: The Commission prepared a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/MB–2, ‘‘Broadcast Station Public Inspection Files,’’ that covers the PII contained in the broadcast station public inspection files located on the Commission’s website. The Commission will revise appropriate privacy requirements as necessary to include any entities and information added to the online public file in this proceeding. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Most of the documents comprising the public file consist of materials that are not of a confidential nature. Respondents complying with the information collection requirements may request that the information they submit be withheld from disclosure.

This revised collection reflects the burden associated with the Shared Service Agreement disclosure requirements adopted in the 2014 Quadrennial Regulatory Review (81 FR 76220, Nov. 1, 2016, FCC 16–107, rel. Aug. 25, 2016) and affirmed in the 2014 Quadrennial Regulatory Review Order on Reconsideration (83 FR 733, Jan. 8, 2018, FCC 17–156, rel. Nov. 20, 2017). The collection requires commercial television stations to place in their online public inspection file a copy of every Shared Service Agreement for the station (with the substance of oral agreements reported in writing), regardless of whether the agreement involves commercial television stations in the same market or in different markets, with confidential or proprietary information redacted where appropriate. For purposes of this collection, a Shared Service Agreement is any agreement or series of agreements in which (1) a station provides any station-related services, including, but not limited to, administrative, technical, sales, and/or programming support, to a station that is not directly or indirectly under common de jure control permitted under the Commission’s regulations; or (2) stations that are not directly or indirectly under common de jure control permitted under the Commission’s regulations collaborate to provide or enable the provision of station-related services, including, but not limited to, administrative, technical, sales, and/or programming support, to one or more of the collaborating stations. For purposes of this collection, the term ‘‘station’’ includes the licensee, including any subsidiaries and affiliates, and any other individual or entity with an attributable interest in the station. This information collection requirement will provide the Commission and the public with more comprehensive information about the prevalence and content of Shared Service Agreements between television stations, which will improve the Commission’s and the public’s ability to assess the potential impact of these agreements on the Commission’s rules and policies.

U.S.C. 3507), the FCC is notifying the public that OMB approved changes 
to information collection requirements contained in 47 CFR 73.3526. 
Under 5 CFR part 1320, an agency may not conduct or sponsor a 
collection of information unless it displays a current, valid OMB 
Control Number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for failing 
to comply with a collection of information subject to the Paperwork 
Reduction Act that does not display a current, valid OMB Control 
Number. The OMB Control Number is 3060-0214.
    The foregoing notice is required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995, Public Law 104-13, October 1, 1995, and 44 U.S.C. 3507.
    The total annual reporting burdens and costs for the respondents 
are as follows:
    OMB Control Number: 3060-0214.
    OMB Approval Date: March 12, 2018.
    OMB Expiration Date: March 31, 2021.
    Title: Sections 73.3526 and 73.3527, Local Public Inspection Files; 
Sections 73.1212, 76.1701 and 73.1943, Political Files.
    Form Number: None.
    Respondents: Business or other for profit entities; Not for profit 
institutions; State, Local or Tribal government; Individuals or

    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The 
statutory authority that covers this information collection is

Communications Act of 1934, as amended.
    Total Annual Burden: 2,067,853 Hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $27,168.
    Privacy Impact Assessment: The Commission prepared a system of 
records notice (SORN), FCC/MB-2, ``Broadcast Station Public Inspection 
Files,'' that covers the PII contained in the broadcast station public 
inspection files located on the Commission's website. The Commission 
will revise appropriate privacy requirements as necessary to include 
any entities and information added to the online public file in this 
proceeding.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Most of the documents 
comprising the public file consist of materials that are not of a 
confidential nature. Respondents complying with the information 
collection requirements may request that the information they submit be 
withheld from disclosure. If confidentiality is requested, such 
requests will be processed in accordance with the Commission's rules, 
47 CFR 0.459.
    In addition, the Commission has adopted provisions that permit 
respondents subject to the information collection requirement for 
Shared Service Agreements to redact confidential or proprietary 
information from their disclosures.
    Needs and Uses: The information collection requirements included 
under this OMB Control Number 3060-0214, requires commercial broadcast 
stations to maintain for public inspection a file containing the 
material set forth in 47 CFR 73.3526.
    This revised collection reflects the burden associated with the 
Shared Service Agreement disclosure requirements adopted in the 2014 
Quadrennial Regulatory Review (81 FR 76220, Nov. 1, 2016, FCC 16-107, 
rel. Aug. 25, 2016) and affirmed in the 2014 Quadrennial Regulatory 
Review Order on Reconsideration (83 FR 733, Jan. 8, 2018, FCC 17-156, 
rel. Nov. 20, 2017). The collection requires commercial television 
stations to place in their online public inspection file a copy of 
every Shared Service Agreement for the station (with the substance of 
oral agreements reported in writing), regardless of whether the 
agreement involves commercial television stations in the same market or 
in different markets, with confidential or proprietary information 
redacted where appropriate. For purposes of this collection, a Shared 
Service Agreement is any agreement or series of agreements in which (1) 
a station provides any station-related services, including, but not 
limited to, administrative, technical, sales, and/or programming 
support, to a station that is not directly or indirectly under common 
de jure control permitted under the Commission's regulations; or (2) 
stations that are not directly or indirectly under common de jure 
control permitted under the Commission's regulations collaborate to 
provide or enable the provision of station-related services, including, 
but not limited to, administrative, technical, sales, and/or 
programming support, to one or more of the collaborating stations. For 
purposes of this collection, the term ``station'' includes the 
licensee, including any subsidiaries and affiliates, and any other 
individual or entity with an attributable interest in the station.
    This information collection requirement will provide the Commission 
and the public with more comprehensive information about the prevalence 
and content of Shared Service Agreements between television stations, 
which will improve the Commission's and the public's ability to assess 
the potential impact of these agreements on the Commission's rules and 
policies.
    The information collection requirements contained under 47 CFR
