Federal Communications
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 November 13,
2020. 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@
fcc.gov and to Nicole.Ongele@fcc.gov.

SUMMARY:

17:51 Sep 11, 2020
Jkt 250001
Title: Section 32.7300, Accounting for
Judgments and Other Costs Associated
with Litigation.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 2 respondents; 2 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 4–36
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement and
recordkeeping requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this collection of
information is contained in 47 U.S.C.
151, 152, 154, 161, 201–205 and 218–
220 of the Communications Act of 1934,
as amended.
Total Annual Burden: 40 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality. The
Commission is not requesting that
respondents submit confidential
information to the FCC.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
seeking Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) approval for an extension
of this information collection (no
change in the reporting and/or
recordkeeping requirements). The
Commission will submit this
information collection after this 60-day
comment period to the OMB. The
Commission adopted accounting rules
that require carriers to account for
adverse federal antitrust judgments and
post-judgment special charges. With
regard to settlements of such lawsuits,
there will be a presumption that carriers
can recover the portion of the settlement
that represents the avoidable costs of
litigation; provided that the carrier
makes a required showing. To receive
recognition of its avoided cost of
litigation a carrier must demonstrate, in
a request for special relief, the avoided
costs of litigation by showing the
amount corresponding to the additional
litigation expenses discounted to
present value, that the carrier
reasonably estimates it would have paid
if it had not settled. Settlement costs in
excess of the avoided costs of litigation
are presumed not recoverable unless a
carrier rebuts that presumption by
showing the basic factors that enticed
the carrier to settle and demonstrating
that ratepayers benefited from the
settlement.
