Abstract:
The Commission is requesting a revision to this information collection and is seeking Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval of certain information collections and third-party disclosures associated with a 2004 Order as modified by a 2006 Order, the 2008 Order, and a 2010 Order in the Commission's "BRS/EBS proceeding." This revision is necessary because the need to provide supplemental cost data concerning the transition to the new 2500-2690 MHz band plan no longer exists because the transition is now complete. Also, we adjusted the numbers for requirements pursuant to Section 27.14(o) substantial service filings because most licensees have complied and there are a small number of licensees/licenses who are still subject to that requirement. By these actions, the Commission continues its efforts to transform rules and policies governing the licensing of the Educational Broadband Service (EBS) and the Broadband Radio Service (BRS) (collectively, the Services) in the 2495-2690 MHz band.

Short Statement:
The Commission is reporting the following program changes/decreases to this collection of 25 respondents, 1,490 responses and 1,118 burden hours.

The Commission is reporting adjustments/decreases to this collection of 2,433 respondents, 3,608 responses, 2,245 burden hours and $291,117 to the annual cost burden. These adjustments are due to due the Commission adjusting the numbers for requirements pursuant to Section 27.14(o) substantial service filings because most licensees have complied and there are a small number of licensees/licenses who are still subject to that requirement.
