Title: Application to Participate in a
Toll Free Number Auction, FCC Form
833.
Form Number: FCC Form 833.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, Individuals or
households, Not-for-profit institutions,
Federal Government, State, Local or
Tribal Governments.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 200 respondents; 200
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 1.5
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this collection is contained
in sections 1, 4(i), 201(b) and 251(e)(1)
of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 201(b),
251(e)(1).
Total Annual Burden: 300 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No Cost.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: The
Commission will determine if a Privacy
Impact Assessment is required.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Information collected on FCC Form 833
is made available for public inspection,
and the Commission is not requesting
that respondents submit confidential
information as part of the pre-auction
application process. For individuals, the
Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, is the
statutory authority for confidentiality
and applies to this information
collection. To the extent the information
submitted pursuant to this information
collection is determined to be
confidential, it will be protected by the
Commission. If a respondent seeks to
have certain information collected on
FCC Form 833 withheld from public
inspection, the respondent may request
confidential treatment of such
information pursuant to section 0.459 of

the Commission’s rules. See 47 CFR
0.459.
Needs and Uses: The Commission’s
rules and related requirements are
designed to ensure that the competitive
bidding process for assigning toll free
numbers is limited to qualified
applicants, deter possible abuse of the
bidding process, and enhance the use of
competitive bidding to assign toll free
numbers in furtherance of the public
interest. Applicants will use FCC Form
833 to submit the required disclosures
and certifications, and the information
collected on FCC Form 833 will then be
reviewed to determine if an applicant is
qualified to bid in a toll free number
auction. Toll free number auctions will
not be able to occur without the
collection of information on FCC Form
833. Without the information collected
on FCC Form 833, a determination of
whether the applicant is qualified to bid
in a toll free number auction cannot be
made.

Commission.
ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
As part of its continuing effort
to reduce paperwork burdens, and as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act (PRA) of 1995, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC or
the Commission) invites the general
public and other Federal agencies to
take this opportunity to comment on the
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 collected; ways to minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated

collection techniques or other forms of
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
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control
number. No person shall be subject to
any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
PRA that does not display a valid Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before December 24,
2019. If you anticipate that you will be
submitting comments, but find it
difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, you should
advise the contact listed below as soon
as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to
Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email PRA@

additional information about the
information collection, contact Nicole
Ongele at (202) 418–2991.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060–1005.
Title: Numbering Resource
Optimization—Phase 3.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit and State, Local, or Tribal
Government.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 17 respondents; 32
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 40–50
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement and third party
disclosure requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. 153, 154, 201–
205, 207–209, 218, 225–227, 251–252,
271, and 332.
Total Annual Burden: 830 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
The Commission is not requesting that
respondents submit confidential
information to the Commission. If the
Commission requests respondents to
submit information which respondents
believe is confidential, respondents may
request confidential treatment of such
information pursuant to 47 CFR 0.459 of
the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
established a safety valve to ensure that
E:\FR\FM\25OCN1.SGM

Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 207 / Friday, October 25, 2019 / Notices
carriers experiencing rapid growth in a
given market will be able to meet
customer demand. States may use this
safety valve to grant requests from
carriers that demonstrate the following:
(1) The carrier will exhaust its
numbering resources in a market or rate
area within three months (in lieu of six
months-to-exhaust requirement); and
(2) Projected growth is based on the
carrier’s actual growth in the market or
rate area, or in the carrier’s actual
growth in a reasonably comparable
market, but only if that projected growth
varies no more than 15 percent from
historical growth in the relevant market.
The Commission lifted the ban on
service-specific and technology-specific
overlays (collectively, specialized
overlays or SOs), allowing state
commissions seeking to implement SOs
to request delegated authority to do so
on a case-by-case basis. To provide
further guidance to state commissions,
the Commission set forth the criteria
that each request for delegated authority
to implement a SO should address. This
will enable us to examine the feasibility
of SOs in a particular area, and to
determine whether the Commission’s
stated goals are likely to be met if the
SO is implemented. Specifically, state
commissions should also specifically
address the following:
(1) The technologies or services to be
included in the SO;
(2) The geographic area to be covered;
(3) Whether the SO will be
transitional;
(4) When the SO will be implemented
and, if a transitional SO is proposed,
when the SO will become an all-services
overlay;
(5) Whether the SO will include takebacks;
(6) Whether there will be 10-digit
dialing in the SO and the underlying
area code(s);
(7) Whether the SO and underlying
area code(s) will be subject to rationing;
and
(8) Whether the SO will cover an area
in which pooling is taking place.
The Commission uses the information
it collects to assist the state
commissions in carrying out their
delegated authority over numbering
resources.
