unless it displays a currently valid
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) control number. No person shall
be subject to any penalty for failing to

As part of its continuing effort to
reduce paperwork burdens, as required
by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the FCC
invited the general public and other
Federal Agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collection.
Comments are requested concerning: (a)
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;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
burden estimates; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) 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. Pursuant to the
Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of
2002, Public Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(4), the FCC seeks specific
comment on how it might ‘‘further

154(i) of the Communications Act of

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality with
this collection of information.
Privacy Impact Assessment(s): No
impact(s).
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirements contained in 47
CFR 73.1870 require that the licensee of
an AM, FM, or TV broadcast station
designate a chief operator of the station.
Section 73.1870(b)(3) requires that this
designation must be in writing and
posted with the station license. Section
73.1870(c)(3) requires that the chief
operator, or personnel delegated and
supervised by the chief operator, review
the station records at least once each
week to determine if required entries are
being made correctly, and verify that the
station has been operated in accordance
with FCC rules and the station
authorization. Upon completion of the
review, the chief operator must date and
sign the log, initiate corrective action
which may be necessary and advise the
station licensee of any condition which
is repetitive. The posting of the
designation of the chief operator is used
by interested parties to readily identify
the chief operator. The review of the
station records is used by the chief
operator, and FCC staff in
investigations, to ensure that the station
is operating in accordance with its
station authorization and the FCC rules
and regulations.
