PII. Other FCC employees and
contractors may be granted access on a
need-to-know basis. The electronic files
and records are protected by the FCC
and third-party privacy safeguards, a
comprehensive and dynamic set of IT
safety and security protocols and
features that are designed to meet all

audit trail to monitor access.
Furthermore, as part of these privacy
and security requirements, SOC staff
and contractors must complete training
specific to their roles to ensure that they

Act of 1995 (PRA), the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC or
Commission) invites the general public
and other Federal agencies to take this
opportunity to comment on the
following information collections.
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

Respondents: Business or other forprofit, not-for-profit institutions and
state, local or tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 150,081
respondents; 234,439 responses.

Recordkeeping requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. 303(f) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended.
Total Annual Burden: 7,727 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Needs and Uses: The information
collection requirements contained in
Section 90.215 require station licensees
to measure the carrier frequency, output
power, and modulation of each
transmitter authorized to operate with
power in excel of two watts when the
transmitter is initially installed and
when any changes are made which
would likely affect the modulation
characteristics. Such measurements,
which help ensure proper operation of
transmitters, are to be made by a
qualified engineering measurement
service, and are required to be retained
in the station records, along with the
name and address of the engineering
measurement service, and the name of
the person making the measurements.
The information is normally used by the
licensee to ensure that equipment is
operating within prescribed tolerances.
Prior technical operation of transmitters
helps limit interference to other users
and provides the licensee with the
maximum possible utilization of
equipment.
