Title: New Procedure for Non-Federal
Public Safety Entities to License Federal
Government Interoperability Channels.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: New information
collection.
Respondents: Not-for-profit
institutions; State, Local, or Tribal
government.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 45,947 respondents; 45,947
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 0.25
hours.
Frequency of Response: One-time
reporting requirement.
Obligation To Respond: New Section
90.25 adopted in Order DA 18–282,
requires any non-federal public safety
entity seeking to license mobile and
portable units on the Federal
Interoperability Channels to obtain
written concurrence from its Statewide
Interoperability Coordinator (SWIC) or a
state appointed official and include
such written concurrence with its
application for license. A non-federal
public safety entity may communicate
on designated Federal Interoperability
Channels for joint federal/non-federal
operations, provided it first obtains a
license from the Commission
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 Act 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
operation on the Federal
Interoperability Channels conforms to
the terms of an agreement signed by the
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.
