Form Number: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, and State, local, or tribal government. Number of Respondents and Responses: 2,700 respondents; 2,700 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour. Frequency of Response: One-time reporting requirement, and third party disclosure requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this collection of information is contained in Sections 4(i), 11, 303(g), 303(r), and 332(c)(7) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 154(i), 161, 301, 302(a), 303(g), 303(r), 309, 332(c)(7), 336 and 337. Total Annual Burden: 2,700 hours. Total Annual Cost: No cost. Needs and Uses: Section 90.175 requires third party disclosures by applicants proposing to operate a land mobile radio station. If they are requesting a frequency that formerly was coordinated exclusively by one industry-specific frequency coordinator, they are required to obtain written concurrence of that frequency coordinator. On August 18, 2016, the Commission adopted a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, FCC 16–110, in WP Docket No. 16–261, RM–11719 and RM–11722 (2016 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking), which proposed to amend Part 90 of the Commission’s Rules to expand access to private land mobile radio (PLMR) spectrum. Among the many actions taken in the 2016 Spectrum Access NPRM, the Commission proposed to make certain frequencies that are designated for central station alarm operations available for other PLMR uses. Specifically, the Commission proposed to modify section 95.35(c)(63) to remove the use limitation in the urbanized areas where the frequencies designated for alarm use in urban areas are not in use. The Commission tentatively concluded that it would be in the public interest to make these frequencies available for other PLMR operations in those areas and sought comment on this proposal, including its costs and benefits. The Commission also sought comment on other ways to expand PLMR users’ access to frequencies that are designated, but no longer needed, for central station commercial protection services, PO 00000 Frm 00032 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 including by making available channels in urbanized areas where some of the urban frequencies are in use, including: Related costs and benefits associated with such proposals; current and expected future need for central station commercial protection service channels in the 460–470 MHz band; and how to protect incumbent central station commercial protection service operations from harmful interference if eliminating the use restriction on any frequency in any area where it currently is in use. On October 22, 2018, the Commission issued a Report and Order and Order, FCC 18–143, in WP Docket No. 15–32, RM–11572, WP Docket No. 16–261, RM–11719 and RM–11722 (800/PLMR Access Order), in which it revised certain rules to require applicants for channels currently designated for central station alarm use to obtain the concurrence of the central station alarm frequency coordinator in order to use the channels for uses other than central station alarm operations. This requirement is similar to existing requirements pertaining to certain other channels. The Report and Order and Order did not revise any of the information collection requirements that are contained in this collection but rather added additional frequencies to the list. Therefore, this essentially is adding an additional 200 respondents to this collection. OMB Control Number: 3060–1190. Title: Section 87.287(b), Aeronautical Advisory Stations (Unicoms)— ‘‘Squitters.’’ Form No.: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, not for profit institutions and state, local or tribal government. Number of Respondents and Responses: 200 respondents; 200 responses. Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour. Frequency of Response: On-occasion reporting requirement and third party disclosure requirement. Total Annual Burden: 85 hours. Annual Cost Burden: $28,750. Obligation to Respond: Require to obtain or retain benefits. The statutory authority for this collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 151, 154(i), 154(j), 155, 157, 225, 303(r), and 309 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended.

The Commission may request an applicant to provide documentation as to this fact. The written permissions will aid the Commission in ensuring that licensees are complying with its policies and rules, while allowing the owners of antenna structures and other aviation obstacles to use Audio Visual Warning Systems (AVWS) stations, thereby helping aircraft avoid potential collisions and enhancing aviation safety, without causing harmful interference to other communications.

    Total Annual Burden: 2,700 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: No cost.
    Needs and Uses: Section 90.175 requires third party disclosures by 
applicants proposing to operate a land mobile radio station. If they 
are requesting a frequency that formerly was coordinated exclusively by 
one industry-specific frequency coordinator, they are required to 
obtain written concurrence of that frequency coordinator.
    On August 18, 2016, the Commission adopted a Notice of Proposed 
Rulemaking, FCC 16-110, in WP Docket No. 16-261, RM-11719 and RM-11722 
(2016 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking), which proposed to amend Part 90 
of the Commission's Rules to expand access to private land mobile radio 
(PLMR) spectrum. Among the many actions taken in the 2016 Spectrum 
Access NPRM, the Commission proposed to make certain frequencies that 
are designated for central station alarm operations available for other 
PLMR uses.
    Specifically, the Commission proposed to modify section 
95.35(c)(63) to remove the use limitation in the urbanized areas where 
the frequencies designated for alarm use in urban areas are not in use. 
The Commission tentatively concluded that it would be in the public 
interest to make these frequencies available for other PLMR operations 
in those areas and sought comment on this proposal, including its costs 
and benefits. The Commission also sought comment on other ways to 
expand PLMR users' access to frequencies that are designated, but no 
longer needed, for central station commercial protection services, 
including by making available channels in urbanized areas where some of 
the urban frequencies are in use, including: Related costs and benefits 
associated with such proposals; current and expected future need for 
central station commercial protection service channels in the 460-470 
MHz band; and how to protect incumbent central station commercial 
protection service operations from harmful interference if eliminating 
the use restriction on any frequency in any area where it currently is 
in use.
    On October 22, 2018, the Commission issued a Report and Order and 
Order, FCC 18-143, in WP Docket No. 15-32, RM-11572, WP Docket No. 16-
261, RM-11719 and RM-11722 (800/PLMR Access Order), in which it revised 
certain rules to require applicants for channels currently designated 
for central station alarm use to obtain the concurrence of the central 
station alarm frequency coordinator in order to use the channels for 
uses other than central station alarm operations. This requirement is 
similar to existing requirements pertaining to certain other channels. 
The Report and Order and Order did not revise any of the information 
collection requirements that are contained in this collection but 
rather added additional frequencies to the list. Therefore, this 
essentially is adding an additional 200 respondents to this collection.
