    The Federal Communications Commission has submitted the following 
information collection requirements to OMB for review and clearance 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980 (44 U.S.C. 3507).
    Copies of these submissions may be purchased from the Commission's 
copy contractor, International Transcription Service, Inc., 2100 M 
Street, NW., Suite 140, Washington, DC 20037, [phone]. For 
further information on these submissions contact Judy Boley, Federal 
Communications Commission, [phone]. Persons wishing to comment 
on these information collections should contact Timothy Fain, Office of 
Management and Budget, Room 3221 NEOB, Washington, DC 20503, (202) 395-

OMB Number: 3060-0246
Title: Section 74.452, Equipment changes
Action: Extension of currently approved collection
Respondents: State or local governments, non-profit institutions, and 
businesses or other for-profit (including small businesses)
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement
Estimated Annual Burden: 25 responses; 0.5 hours average burden per 
response; 13 hours total annual burden
Needs and Uses: Section 74.452 requires that licensees of remote pickup 
stations notify the Commission of any equipment changes that are deemed 
desirable or necessary (without departing from its station 
authorization) upon completion of such changes. The data are used by 
FCC staff to assure that changes made comply with the rules and 
regulations.

OMB Number: 3060-0254
Title: Section 74.433, Temporary authorizations
Action: Extension of a currently approved collection
Respondents: State or local governments, non-profit institutions, and 
businesses or other for-profit (including small businesses)
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement
Estimated Annual Burden: 30 responses; 1 hour average burden per 
response; 30 hours total annual burden
Needs and Uses: Section 74.433 requires that a licensee of a remote 
pickup station make an informal written request to the FCC when 
requesting temporary authorization for operations of a temporary nature 
that cannot be conducted in accordance with Sec. 74.24. The data is 
used by FCC staff to insure that the temporary operation of a remote 
pickup station will not cause interference to existing stations.

OMB Number: 3060-0342
Title: Section 74.1284, Rebroadcasts
Action: Extension of a currently approved collection
Respondents: Businesses or other for-profit (including small 
businesses)
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement
Estimated Annual Burden: 25 responses; 1 hour average burden per 
response; 25 hours total annual burden
Needs and Uses: Section 74.1284 requires that the licensee of an FM 
Translator station obtain prior consent from the primary FM broadcast 
station or other FM translator before rebroadcasting their programs. In 
addition, the licensee must notify the Commission of the call letters 
of each station rebroadcast and must certify that written consent has 
been received from the licensee of that station. The data is used by 
FCC staff to update records and to assure compliance with FCC rules and 
regulations.

OMB Number: 3060-0483
Title: Section 73.687, Transmission system requirements
Action: Extension of a currently approved collection
Respondents: Businesses or other for-profit (including small 
businesses)
Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement
Estimated Annual Burden: 6 responses; 1 hour average burden per 
response; 6 hours total annual burden
Needs and Uses: Section 73.687(e)(3) requires TV broadcast stations 
operating on Channels 14 and 69 to take special precautions to avoid 
interference to adjacent spectrum land mobile operations. This 
requirement applies to all new Channel 14 and 69 TV broadcast stations 
and those authorized to change channel, increase effective radiated 
power (ERP), change directional antenna characteristics such that ERP 
increases in any azimuth direction or change location, involving an 
existing or proposed channel 14 or 69 assignment. Section 73.687(e)(4) 
requires these stations to submit evidence to the FCC that no 
interference is being cause before they will be permitted to transmit 
programming on the new facilities. The data is used by FCC to ensure 
proper precautions have been taken to protect land mobile stations from 
interference. It will also increase and improve service to the public 
by broadcasters and land mobile services operating in certain parts of 
the spectrum.
