Abstract: The Commission is requesting approval for non-substantial changes to collection 3060-0031, FCC Forms 314 and 315. As a result of the Commission's recent decision to attribute certain television joint sales agreements ("JSAs"), the multiple ownership question in each form (Form 314, Section III, Question 6, and Form 315, Section IV, Question 8) is being changed to require an affirmative response if the assignee/transferee or any party to the application holds an attributable television JSA in the same market as the station(s) subject to the application. Each question was previously limited to attributable radio JSAs and attributable radio and television time brokerage agreements. These changes do not add new questions to FCC Form 314 or 315; rather, the changes modify an existing question in each form that all respondents are required to answer. Accordingly, these non-substantial changes will not increase the burden or cost to commercial television broadcast applicants. In addition to the changes to the forms detailed in the attached non-substantive change request, the Commission will make various conforming edits to the instructions for each form.

Authorizing Statute(s): US Code: 47 USC 154(i), 303 and 308 Name of Law: Communications Act of 1934, as amended

Short Statement: The Commission has program changes to the total number of respondents of +20, to the total number of responses of +20, to the annual burden hours of +42, and to the annual cost burden of +$108,000, due to the adoption of information collection requirements contained in the Rural Third R&O, FCC 11-190. In particular, the Tribal Priority Holding Period requirements are now applied in the context of authorizations obtained using the Tribal Priority Threshold Qualifications procedures, which were set forth in the Rural Third R&O, 26 FCC Rcd at 17645-50. While designed to facilitate opportunities for participation in the broadcasting industry by Tribes that use a Tribal Priority, the requirements accommodate those Tribes that may need or desire to assign a station that had been obtained using the Tribal Priority. There are also adjustments to this collection of +340 to the total number of responses, +185 to the to annual burden hours and +$667,006 to the annual cost burden. The Commission reevaluated some of its numbers from our previous submission to OMB.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $8,852,725
