On July 13, 2018, the Federal Communications Commission (‘‘Commission’’) released an Order titled, ‘‘In the Matter of Expanding Flexible Use of the 3.7 to 4.2 GHz Band; Expanding Flexible Use in Mid-Band Spectrum Between 3.7 and 24 GHz; Petition for Rulemaking to Amend and Modernize Parts 25 and 101 of the Commission’s Rules to Authorize and Facilitate the Deployment of Licensed Point-to-Multipoint Fixed Wireless Broadband Service in the 3.7–4.2 GHz Band; Fixed Wireless Communications Coalition, Inc., Request for Modified Coordination Procedures in Band Shared Between the Fixed Service and the Fixed Satellite Service,’’ GN Docket No. 18–122, GN Docket No. 17–183, RM–11791, RM–11778 (FCC 18–91).

Title: Call Sign Reservation and Authorization System, FCC Form 380. Form Number: FCC Form 380. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit, Not-for-profit institutions; and State, local, or tribal government. Number of Respondents and Responses: 1,600 respondents; 1,600 responses. Estimated Hours per Response: 0.166– 0.25 hours. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirements. Total Annual Burden: 333 hours. Total Annual Cost: $162,000.

Nature and Extend of Confidentiality: There is need for confidentiality with this collection of information. Privacy Impact Assessment: No impact(s). Needs and Uses: The information collection requirements contained in 47 CFR 73.3550 provide that all requests for new or modified call signs be made via the on-line call sign reservation and authorization. The Commission uses an on-line system, FCC Form 380, for the electronic preparation and submission of requests for the reservation and authorization of new and modified call signs. Access to the call sign reservation and authorization system is made by broadcast licensees and permittees, or by persons acting on their behalf, via the internet’s World Wide Web. This online, electronic call sign system enables users to determine the availability and licensing status of call signs; to request an initial, or change an existing, call sign; and to determine and submit more easily the appropriate fee, if any. Because all elements necessary to make a valid call sign reservation are encompassed within the on-line system, this system prevents users from filing defective or incomplete call sign requests. The electronic system also ADDRESSES: PO 00000 Frm 00026 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 9990 47149 provides greater certitude, as a selected call sign is effectively reserved as soon as the user has submitted its call sign request. This electronic call sign reservation and authorization system has significantly improved service to all radio and television broadcast station licensees and permittees. OMB Control Number: 3060–0688. Title: Abbreviated Cost-of-Service Filing for Cable Network Upgrades, FCC Form 1235. Form Number: FCC Form 1235. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business and other forprofit entities; State, local or tribal governments. Number of Respondents and Responses: 5 respondents; 5 responses. Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement; Third party disclosure requirement. Estimated Hours per Response: 10–20 hours. Total Annual Burden: 150 hours. Total Annual Costs: None. Obligation To Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this information collection is contained in Section 154(i) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for confidentiality with this collection of information. Privacy Assessment: No impact(s). Needs and Uses: FCC Form 1235 is an abbreviated cost of service filing for significant network upgrades that allows cable operators to justify rate increases related to capital expenditures used to improve rate-regulated cable services. FCC Form 1235 is filed following the end of the month in which upgraded cable services become available and are providing benefits to subscribers. In addition, FCC Form 1235 can be filed for pre-approval any time prior to the upgrade services becoming available to subscribers using projected upgrade costs. If the pre-approval option is exercised, the operator must file the form again following the end of the month in which upgraded cable services become available and are providing benefits to customers of regulated services, using actual costs where applicable.
