    FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
    
     
    
    Public Information Collection Requirement Submitted to Office of 
    Management and Budget for Review
    
    October 31, 1994.
        The Federal Communications Commission has submitted the following 
    information collection requirement to OMB for review and clearance 
    under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3507).
        Copies of this submission may be purchased from the Commission's 
    copy contractor, International Transcription Service, Inc., 2100 M 
    Street, NW., Suite 140, Washington, DC 20037, (202) 857-3800. For 
    further information on this submission contact Judy Boley, Federal 
    Communications Commission, (202) 418-0214. Persons wishing to comment 
    on this information collection should contact Timothy Fain, Office of 
    Management and Budget, Room 10214 NEOB, Washington, DC 20503, (202) 
    395-3561.
    
    OMB Number: 3060-0034.
    Title: Application for Construction Permit for Noncommercial 
    Educational Broadcast Station.
    Form Number: FCC Form 340.
    Action: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Non-profit institutions.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement.
    Estimated Annual Burden: 269 responses; 89.38 hours average burden per 
    response; 24,043 hours total annual burden.
    Needs and Uses: FCC Form 340 is used to apply for authority to 
    construct a new noncommercial educational AM, FM and TV broadcast 
    station, or to make changes in the existing facilities of such a 
    station. On 9/18/92, the Commission adopted a Memorandum Opinion and 
    Order (MO&O) in the matter of Policy Regarding Character Qualifications 
    in Broadcast Licensing which eliminated the requirement that broadcast 
    applicants report pending litigation. The form is being revised to 
    reflect the new policy. The form is also being revised to add a column 
    to the terrain and coverage data for applicants who apply for a 
    noncommercial educational station on a commercial channel. 
    Additionally, a paragraph has been added to the environmental question 
    in the engineering sections of the form to clarify the information 
    needed by the Commission. The data is used by FCC staff to determine 
    whether the applicant meets basic statutory requirements to become a 
    Commission licensee.
    
    Federal Communications Commission.
    William F. Caton,
    Acting Secretary.
