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.
