FCC Form 303 S is used in applying for renewal of license for commercial or noncommercial AM, FM, TV, FM translator, TV translator, Class A TV, or Low Power TV, and Low Power FM broadcast station licenses. Licensees of broadcast stations must apply for renewal of their licenses every eight years. The Commission is revising this collection to reflect the Commission’s adoption of a Report and Order (“R&O”) in MB Docket No. 16-161, FCC 17-3, In the Matter of Revisions to Public Inspection File Requirements – Broadcaster Correspondence Rile and Cable Principal Headend Location, adopted and released on January 31, 2017. The R&O eliminated the requirement that commercial TV stations retain in their public inspection file copies of letters and emails from the public. As the Commission noted in the R&O, because commercial TV licensees will no longer be required to maintain correspondence under our rules, under the terms of 47 USC Section 308(d) they also will not be required to file a summary of correspondence received regarding violent programming with their renewal application (FCC Form 303-S). Consistent with this decision, we are revising Form 303-S to remove the references in the form to this requirement. Please see the change request justification for the reason behind this change submission to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval.

Except for the updates as noted in footnote 5 of the updated supporting statement, the respondents, burden hours and costs of this information collection are not impacted by the minor non-substantive changes to the FCC Form 303-S, which will now be part of the LMS Renewal Application, and the transition to the new LMS licensing database system. Therefore, the adjustments to this collection are due to current licenses broadcast station totals. These adjustments/increases are as follows: 1,103 to the number of respondents, 1,103 to the annual number of responses, 2,757 to the annual burden hours and $712,997.
