Abstract: FCC Form 302-DTV is used by licensees and permittees of DTV broadcast stations to obtain a new or modified station license, and/or to notify the FCC of certain changes in the licensed facilities. With this submission, we request to reinstate OMB control number 3060-0837. In 2008, we merged the requirements that were previously under this OMB control number into an existing information collection OMB control number 3060-0029, Application for TV Broadcast Station License, FCC Form 302-TV. Although the requirements were merged under the supporting statement, the forms themselves remained separate and only shared the same OMB control number. Since that time, we find the merging of these requirements under one OMB control number as ineffective causing delays for submission to OMB for review especially when the various requirements were revised by multiple Commission actions.
