On August 3, 2016, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC or Commission), the Advisory Council
on Historic Preservation (Council or ACHP), and the National
Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers (NCSHPO)
executed the First Amendment to Nationwide Programmatic Agreement
for the Collocation of Wireless Antennas (First Amendment) to
address the review of deployments of small wireless antennas and
associated equipment under Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act (NHPA) (54 U.S.C. 306108 (formerly codified at 16
U.S.C. 470f). The FCC, the Council, and NCSHPO agreed to amend the
Nationwide Programmatic Agreement for the Collocation of Wireless
Antennas (Collocation Agreement) to account for the limited
potential of small wireless antennas and associated equipment,
including Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS) and small cell
facilities, to affect historic properties. The First Amendment to
the Collocation Agreement amends the Collocation Agreement, which
is codified at 47 CFR, part 1, Appendix B.
This is a new collection. This
new collection results in a program change increases of 71
respondents, 765 responses, 2,869 annual burden hours, and $82,285
annual costs. This is due to the information collection associated
with Stipulation VII.C in the amended collocation agreement.
