whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper

the burden of the collection of
information on the respondents,
including the use of automated

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a
collection of information 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 comply with
a collection of information subject to the
PRA that does not display a valid OMB
control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before June 28, 2021.
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
Cathy Williams, FCC, via email to PRA@

Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities; Individuals or
households; Not-for-profit institutions.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 169,369 respondents;
191,628,905 responses.
Estimated Time per Response: .004
hours (15 seconds) to 1 hour.
Frequency of Response: Annual,
monthly, on occasion and one-time
reporting requirements; Recordkeeping
requirement; Third party disclosure
requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. The statutory
authority for the information collection
requirements are found in the
Telephone Consumer Protection Act of
1991 (TCPA), Public Law 102–243,
December 20, 1991, 105 Stat. 2394,

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Confidentiality is an issue to the extent
that individuals and households
provide personally identifiable
information, which is covered under the
FCC’s system of records notice (SORN),

FCC/CGB–1, ‘‘Informal Complaints and
Inquiries.’’ As required by the Privacy
Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Commission also
published a SORN, FCC/CGB–1
‘‘Informal Complaints, Inquiries, and
Requests for Dispute Assistance’’, in the
Federal Register on August 15, 2014 (79
FR 48152) which became effective on
September 24, 2014. A system of records
for the do-not-call registry was created
by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)
under the Privacy Act. The FTC
originally published a notice in the
Federal Register describing the system.
See 68 FR 37494, June 24, 2003. The
FTC updated its system of records for
the do-not-call registry in 2009. See 74
FR 17863, April 17, 2009.
Privacy Impact Assessment: Yes.
Needs and Uses: The reporting
requirements included under this OMB
Control Number 3060–0519 enable the
Commission to gather information
regarding violations of section 227 of
the Communications Act, the Do-NotCall Implementation Act (Do-Not-Call
Act), and the Commission’s
implementing rules. If the information
collection was not conducted, the
Commission would be unable to track
and enforce violations of section 227 of
the Communications Act, the Do-NotCall Act, or the Commission’s
implementing rules. The Commission’s
implementing rules provide consumers
with several options for avoiding most
unwanted telephone solicitations.
The national do-not-call registry
supplements the company-specific donot-call rules for those consumers who
wish to continue requesting that
particular companies not call them. Any
company that is asked by a consumer,
including an existing customer, not to
call again must honor that request for
five (5) years. A provision of the
Commission’s rules, however, allows
consumers to give specific companies
permission to call them through an
express written agreement. Nonprofit
organizations, companies with whom
consumers have an established business
relationship, and calls to persons with
whom the telemarketer has a personal
relationship are exempt from the ‘‘donot-call’’ registry requirements.
On September 21, 2004, the
Commission released the Safe Harbor
Order, published at 69 FR 60311,
October 8, 2004, establishing a limited
safe harbor in which persons will not be
liable for placing autodialed and
prerecorded message calls to numbers
ported from a wireline service within
the previous 15 days. The Commission
also amended its existing National DoNot-Call Registry safe harbor to require
telemarketers to scrub their lists against
the Registry every 31 days.

On December 4, 2007, the
Commission released the DNC NPRM,
published at 72 FR 71099, December 14,
2007, seeking comment on its tentative
conclusion that registrations with the
Registry should be honored indefinitely,
unless a number is disconnected or
reassigned or the consumer cancels his
registration.
On June 17, 2008, in accordance with
the Do-Not-Call Improvement Act of
2007, the Commission revised its rules
to minimize the inconvenience to
consumers of having to re-register their
preferences not to receive telemarketing
calls and to further the underlying goal
of the National Do-Not-Call Registry to
protect consumer privacy rights. The
Commission released a Report and
Order in CG Docket No. 02–278, FCC
08–147, published at 73 FR 40183, July
14, 2008, amending the Commission’s
rules under the Telephone Consumer
Protection Act (TCPA) to require sellers
and/or telemarketers to honor
registrations with the National Do-NotCall Registry so that registrations will
not automatically expire based on the
current five-year registration period.
Specifically, the Commission modified
§ 64.1200(c)(2) of its rules to require
sellers and/or telemarketers to honor
numbers registered on the Registry
indefinitely or until the number is
removed by the database administrator
or the registration is cancelled by the
consumer.
On February 15, 2012, the
Commission released a Report and
Order in CG Docket No. 02–278, FCC
12–21, originally published at 77 FR
34233, June 11, 2012, and later
corrected at 77 FR 66935, November 8,
2012, revising its rules to: (1) Require
prior express written consent for all
autodialed or prerecorded telemarketing
calls to wireless numbers and for all
prerecorded telemarketing calls to
residential lines; (2) eliminate the
established business relationship
exception to the consent requirement for
prerecorded telemarketing calls to
residential lines; (3) require
telemarketers to include an automated,
interactive opt-out mechanism in all
prerecorded telemarketing calls, to
allow consumers more easily to opt out
of future robocalls during a robocall
itself; and (4) require telemarketers to
comply with the 3% limit on abandoned
calls during each calling campaign, in
order to discourage intrusive calling
campaigns.
Finally, the Commission also
exempted from the Telephone
Consumer Protection Act requirements
prerecorded calls to residential lines
made by health care-related entities
