FCC NOTICE REQUIRED BY THE PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT AND THE PRIVACY ACT


The public reporting for this collection of information is estimated to average .25 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the required data, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. If you have any comments on this burden estimate, or how we can improve the collection and reduce the burden it causes you, please write to the Federal Communications Commission, AMD-PERM, Paperwork Reduction Project (3060-0757), Washington, DC 20554. We will also accept your comments regarding the Paperwork Reduction Act aspects of this collection via the Internet if you send an email to [email protected]. PLEASE DO NOT SEND COMPLETED SURVEYS TO THIS ADDRESS.


Remember - You are not required to respond to a collection of information sponsored by the Federal government, and the government may not conduct or sponsor this collection, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number or if we fail to provide you with this notice. This collection has been assigned an OMB control number of 3060-0757.


In addition, the information that you provide when filling out the Auction Survey is covered by the system of records notice, FCC/WTB-7, Remedy Action Request System (RARS). The Commission is authorized to request this information from consumers under Sec. 151, 154, 258, 301, 303, 309(e), 312, 362, 364, 386, 507 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 154, 226, 258, 301, 303, 309(e), 312, 362, 364, 386, 507; and 29 U.S.C. 794 and 794d.


Under this system of records notice, FCC/WTB-7, the FCC may disclose information that consumers provide as follows:

  1. Public access – records in this system will be made available upon request for public inspection after redaction of information that could identify the correspondent, i.e., name, telephone number, ITIN, and e-mail address. Limited public access to certain records may be available via the Internet. This information includes the status of request, request ID number, and the agent's number who took the call or electronic request for support. Public users who have contacted FCC personnel via telephone, e-mail, or electronic submission may access the system to retrieve a status on the ticket assigned to their request. They will be given this ticket/request number generated by the Remedy Action Request System (RARS) upon submission of a request. This number may be entered into the appropriate field on the FCC web site to check the status of the ticket. Only the status of that ticket will be released to the public by entering the ticket number—no personal or confidential information is available to the public;

2. Adjudication and Litigation – where by careful review, the agency determines that the records are both relevant and necessary to litigation and the use of such records is deemed by the agency to be for a purpose that is compatible with the purpose for which the agency collected the records, these records may be used by a court or adjudicative body in a proceeding when: (a) the agency or any component thereof; or (b) any employee of the agency in his or her official capacity; or (c) any employee of the agency in his or her individual capacity where the agency has agreed to represent the employee; or (d) the United States Government is a party to litigation or has an interest in such litigation;

3. Law Enforcement and Investigation – where there is an indication of a violation or potential violation of a statute, regulation, rule, or order, records from this system may be shared with appropriate Federal, State, or local authorities either for purposes of obtaining additional information relevant to a FCC decision or for referring the record for investigation, enforcement, or prosecution by another agency;

4. Congressional Inquiries – when requested by a Congressional office in response to an inquiry by an individual made to the Congressional office for their own records; and

5. Government-wide Program Management and Oversight when requested by the National Archives and Records Administration for the purpose of records management inspections conducted under authority of 44 U.S.C. 2904 and 2906; when the U.S. Department of Justice is contacted in order to obtain that department’s advice regarding disclosure obligations under the Freedom of Information Act; or when the Office of Management and Budget is contacted in order to obtain that office’s advice regarding obligations under the Privacy Act;


In each of these cases, the FCC will determine whether disclosure of the records is compatible with the purpose for which the records were collected.


THE FOREGOING NOTICE IS REQUIRED BY THE PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT OF 1995, PUBLIC LAW 104-13, OCTOBER 1, 1995, 44 U.S.C. SECTION 3507 AND THE PRIVACY ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-579, DECEMBER 31, 1974, 5 U.S.C. SECTION 552a(e)(3).
