currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 2,275 respondents; 2,275
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 3

Needs and Uses: In April 2013, the
Wireline Competition Bureau of the
Federal Communications Commission
adopted an Order (Order), in WC Docket
No. 10–90; DA 13–598, 78 FR 29063,
Connect America Fund. The Order
adopted the form and content for a
survey of urban rates for fixed voice and
fixed broadband residential services for
purposes of implementing various
reforms adopted as part of the USF/ICC
Transformation Order, 76 FR 73830,
November 29, 2011. The information
collected in this survey will be used to
help ensure that universal service
support recipients offering fixed voice
and broadband services do so at
reasonably comparable rates to those in
urban areas. The comparability
requirements are important components
of the Commission’s overall effort to
E:\FR\FM\26DEN1.SGM
26DEN1
70970
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 247 / Thursday, December 26, 2019 / Notices
improve accountability for the use of
universal service funding. The
comparability requirements will ensure
that rates are reasonably comparable for
voice as well as broadband service,
between urban and rural, insular, and
high cost areas. Rates must be
reasonably comparable so that
consumers in rural, insular, and high
cost areas have meaningful access to
these services. This Order requires a
statistically valid sample of urban
providers to complete a survey with
information regarding the types and
prices of their offerings. The
Commission conducts this survey
through an online reporting form
accessible to those urban providers of
fixed voice and broadband services that
are chosen to participate.

authorized by rule under the Low Power
Radio Service (47 CFR part 95) and must
not cause harmful interference to TV
reception or United States Navy
SPASUR installations. You do not need
an FCC license to operate this
transmitter. This transmitter may only
be used to provide: Auditory assistance
to persons with disabilities, persons
who require language translation, or
persons in educational settings; health
care services to the ill; law enforcement
tracking services under agreement with
a law enforcement agency; or automated
maritime telecommunications system
(AMTS) network control
communications. Two-way voice

prohibited.’’
The reporting requirement contained
in Section 95.2109 states that Prior to
operating a LPRS transmitter with an
AMTS, the AMTS licensee must notify,
in writing, each television station that
may be affected by such operations, as
defined in Section 80.215(h). The
notification provided with the station’s
license application is sufficient to
satisfy this requirement if no new
television stations would be affected.
The information collection
requirement contained in Section
95.2195 requires that manufacturers of
LPRS transmitters used for auditory
assistance, health care assistance, and
law enforcement tracking purposes must
include with each transmitting device
the following statement:
This transmitter is authorized by rule
under the Low Power Radio Service (47
CFR part 95) and must not cause
harmful interference to TV reception or
to the United States Air Force Space
Surveillance System operating in the

exception of automated maritime
telecommunications system (AMTS)
devices, you do not need an FCC license
to operate this transmitter. This
