The cost estimates are based on the
assumption that filers use online
reporting. For the 2015 EEO–4 report,
85% of EEO–4 filers submitted their
report via online reporting and 5% of
EEO–4 reports were submitted using the
data upload method. The remaining
10% of filers submitted reports via the
paper method. The EEOC has made
electronic filing much easier for
employers required to file the EEO–4
Report. As a result, more jurisdictions
are using this filing method. This
development, along with the greater
availability of human resource
information software, is expected to
have significantly reduced the actual
burden of reporting.
Dated: April 18, 2018.
For the Commission.

Acting Chair.

Information Collection Being Reviewed
by the Federal Communications
Commission
As part of its continuing effort

Act (PRA) of 1995, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC or
the Commission) invites the general
public and other Federal agencies to

following information collection.
Comments are requested concerning:
whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimate; ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the

information technology; and ways to
further reduce the information
collection burden on small business
concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a

any penalty for failing to comply with

Title: New Procedure for Non-Federal

requires any non-federal public safety
entity seeking to license mobile and

authorizing use of the channels.
Statutory authority for these collections
are contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154, 301,
303, and 332 of the Communications
Act of 1934.
Total Annual Burden: 11,487 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Applicants who include written
concurrence from their SWIC or state
appointed official with their application
to license mobile and portable units on
the Federal Interoperability Channels
need not include any confidential
information with their application.
Nonetheless, there is a need for
confidentiality with respect to all
applications filed with the Commission
through its Universal Licensing System
(ULS). Although ULS stores all
information pertaining to the individual
license via an FCC Registration Number
(FRN), confidential information is
accessible only by persons or entities
that hold the password for each account,
and the Commission’s licensing staff.
Information on private land mobile
radio licensees is maintained in the
Commission’s system of records, FCC/
WTB–1, ‘‘Wireless Services Licensing
Records.’’ The licensee records will be
publicly available and routinely used in
accordance with subsection (b) of the
Privacy Act. TIN Numbers and material
which is afforded confidential treatment
pursuant to a request made under 47
CFR 0.459 will not be available for
Public inspection. Any personally
identifiable information (PII) that
individual applicants provide is covered
by a system of records, FCC/WTB–1,
‘‘Wireless Services Licensing Records,’’
and these and all other records may be
disclosed pursuant to the Routine Uses
as stated in this system of records
notice.
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
a non-federal public safety entity to
obtain written consent from its SWIC or
state appointed official before
communicating with federal
government agencies on the Federal
Interoperability Channels is to ensure
that the non-federal public safety entity
operates in accordance with the rules
and procedures governing use of the
federal interoperability channels and
does not cause inadvertent interference
during emergencies. Commission staff
will use the written concurrence from
the SWIC or state appointed official to
determine if an applicant’s proposed

SWIC or state appointed official with a
federal user with a valid assignment
from the National Telecommunications
and Information Administration (NTIA)
which has jurisdiction over the
channels.

Inquiries.’’ As required by the Privacy
Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Commission also

‘‘Informal Complaints, Inquiries, and
Requests for Dispute Assistance’’, in the
Federal Register on August 15, 2014 (79
FR 48152) which became effective on
September 24, 2014. A system of records

under the Privacy Act. The FTC
originally published a notice in the
Federal Register describing the system.
