FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
Notice of Public Information Collection(s) being Reviewed by the
Federal Communications Commission
February 25, 1999.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commissions, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden invites the general public
and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the
following information collection, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. An agency may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently
valid control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for
failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that does not display a valid control
number. Comments are requested concerning (a) 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; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's
burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information collected; and (d) 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.
DATES: Written comments should be submitted on or before May 10, 1999.
If you anticipate that you will be submitting comments, but find it

Commission, 445 12th Street, S.W., Washington, DC 20554 or via the
Internet to lesmith@fcc.gov.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information or copies

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060-0713.
Title: Alternative Broadcast Inspection Program (ABIP) Compliance
Notification.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for-profit entities; and Not-for-
profit institutions.
Number of Respondents: 50.
Estimated Time Per Response: 5 minutes (30 responses/year).
Total Annual Burden: 125 hours.
Total Annual Cost: None.
Needs and Uses: The Commission established an ABIP that permits
broadcast stations to arrange for a voluntary inspection of their
facility by an entity, usually a state broadcast association, and to
have the entity notify the Commission's local field office that the
broadcast station has passed an inspection. The information collection
requires such entities to file a statement with the FCC field office in
whose geographic area of responsibility broadcast station is located
that the broadcast station has passed an ABIP inspection. The
Commission will use the information collected to determine which
broadcast stations are exempted from routine, random inspections by the
local FCC field office during a two or three year period.
Federal Communications Commission.
Magalie Roman Salas,
Secretary.
