Non-substantive Change Request

NON-SUBSTANTIVE CHANGE REQUEST JUSTIFICATION

OMB CONTROL NUMBER 3060-0906

FCC Form 2100, Application for Media Bureau Audio and Video Service Authorization, Schedule G¹

The Commission is submitting this non-substantive change request to the Office of Budget and Management (OMB) for approval of minor non-substantive changes made to former FCC Form 317. The Commission is implementing a new on-line (electronic) licensing system called “Licensing and Management System” (LMS) in which all FCC licensing forms, including former FCC Form 317, will be combined into a single common form - FCC Form 2100. General questions, which were formally asked in all licensing applications, will compose the body of FCC Form 2100. The questions pertinent only to former FCC Form 317 applicants will now be contained in Schedule G of FCC Form 2100. The substance of former FCC Form 317 remains the same in the new system/form. The wording of each question applicable to former FCC Form 317 applicants in FCC Form 2100 is identical to that of the former FCC Form 317. All that is changing is the name of the form and the order, in some cases, in which questions are asked. The burden hours and costs are not impacted by the minor non-substantive changes to the former FCC Form 317, which will now be a part of the LMS and FCC Form 2100. The minor non-substantive changes are highlighted below:

Former FCC Form 317 is now encompassed by FCC Form 2100, Schedule G and the LMS. All submissions are now made on-line (electronically). Questions applicable to all licensing applicants are asked in the body of the common FCC Form 2100, and questions pertinent only to former FCC Form 317 applicants are contained in Schedule G of FCC Form 2100. The substance, burden hours, and costs are not impacted.

This non-substantive change request to former FCC Form 317, now contained within FCC Form 2100, Schedule G and the LMS, needs OMB review and approval. There are no new burdens or cost associated with this non-substantive change. The supporting statement has been updated as well.
