Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 15 / Monday, January 24, 2022 / Notices
established by OMB in 1995, replacing
the alternate format developed by EPA
and OMB prior to 1995. The Agency
does not expect this change in format to
result in substantive changes to the
information collection activities or
related estimated burden and costs.
IV. What is the next step in the process
for this ICR?
EPA will consider the comments
received and amend the ICR as
appropriate. The final ICR package will
then be submitted to OMB for review
and approval pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.12. EPA will issue another Federal
Register document pursuant to 5 CFR
1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce the
submission of the ICR to OMB and the
opportunity to submit additional
comments to OMB. If you have any
questions about this ICR or the approval
process, please contact the person listed

47 CFR 74.783(b) requires licensees of
television translators whose station
identification is made by the television
station whose signals are being
rebroadcast by the translator, must
secure agreement with this television
station licensee to keep in its file, and
available to FCC personnel, the
translator’s call letters and location,
giving the name, address and telephone
number of the licensee or his service
representative to be contacted in the
event of malfunction of the translator. It
shall be the responsibility of the
translator licensee to furnish current
information to the television station
licensee for this purpose.
47 CFR 73.1201(b)(1) requires that the
official station identification consist of
the station’s call letters immediately
followed by the community or
communities specified in its license as
the station’s location. The name of the
licensee, the station’s frequency, the
station’s channel number, as stated on
the station’s license, and/or the station’s
network affiliation may be inserted
between the call letters and station
location. Digital Television (DTV)
stations, or DAB Stations, choosing to
include the station’s channel number in
the station identification must use the
station’s major channel number and
may distinguish multicast program
streams. For example, a DTV station
with major channel number 26 may use
26.1 to identify a High Definition
Television (HDTV) program service and
26.2 to identify a Standard Definition
Television (SDTV) program service. A
radio station operating in DAB hybrid
mode or extended hybrid mode shall
identify its digital signal, including any
free multicast audio programming
streams, in a manner that appropriately
alerts its audience to the fact that it is
listening to a digital audio broadcast. No
other insertion between the station’s call
letters and the community or
communities specified in its license is
permissible. A station may include in its
official station identification the name
of any additional community or
communities, but the community to
which the station is licensed must be
named first.
47 CFR 74.783(e) permits low power
TV permittees or licensees to request to
be assigned four-letter call signs in lieu
of the five-character alpha-numeric call
signs.
47 CFR 74.1283(c)(1) requires a FM
translator station licensee whose
identification is made by the primary
station must arrange for the primary
station licensee to furnish the
translator’s call letters and location
(name, address, and telephone number
of the licensee or service representative)
