Abstract: The Commission is seeking a non-substantive change request for this information collection. This submission seeks to update FCC Form 1876. The Commission inadvertently omitted a field labeled “account type” (a drop down menu with a choice of “savings or checking”) in CORES for vendors who request through the regular FCC Accounts Payable process to become a vendor in our accounting system, Genesis which is not a new requirement to vendors. The information for the Auction Participant vendors will be collected in CORES vs. the other vendor set-up mechanism “SAM” which is used for our regular accounts payable vendors. FCC is conducting a reverse auction to determine the amount of compensation that each broadcast television licensee would accept in return for voluntarily relinquishing some or all of its broadcast television spectrum usage rights in order to make spectrum available for assignment through a system of competitive bidding. This information collection is a standardized form for successful bidders in the reverse auction to submit additional information to facilitate incentive payments.

Emergency Justfication: The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) requests OMB to authorize emergency processing of a submission of a collection of information, in accordance with 5 CFR 1320.13. The collection of information is a new collection entitled “Payment Instructions from the Eligible Entity Seeking Reimbursement from The TV Broadcaster Relocation Fund”. This information collection is necessary to carry out the Incentive Auction program, which is a high priority and time-sensitive program. Therefore, the Commission requests that OMB approve this information collection by January 17, 2017.
