The change in burden the FCC is requesting is an adjustment rather than a prorgram change. OMB continues to encourage the FCC and the FAA to adopt a common reporting mechanism for antenna information and to use, wherever possible, electronic reporting mechanisms. The FCC should also add the illustrations requested in the previous terms of clearance. The FCC has permission to use an expiration date and to delete reference to NAD 27, provided clear instructions are issued regarding use of the Datum of Coordinates.
