Federal Communications Commission

Explanation of Non-Substantive Changes to OMB Control Number: 3060-1042:

Purpose of this Submission: This submission documents certain non-substantive changes to an existing information collection pursuant to 44 U.S.C. § 3507. This non-substantive change request modifies the Licensing and Customer Support Help Desk Form approved under OMB Control Number 3060-1042. This submission seeks to streamline the process by which members of the public submit requests for further environmental review under 47 CFR § 1.1307(c) and further historic preservation review under Section XI of Appendix C to Part 1, Title 47. Specifically, it seeks to introduce an additional website, in which the public will insert information they otherwise communicate to the Commission staff or to customer support through the Licensing and Customer Support Help Desk Form. This addition will allow customer support agents and Commission staff to quickly identify requests requiring immediate assistance, avoid effort duplication, streamline correspondence with the public, applicants, and licensees, and comport more closely with the Licensing and Customer Support Help Desk Form approved under OMB Control Number 3060-1042. A draft of the revised form is described below.

We do not anticipate this additional website to have an impact on the annual burden hours or annual costs, since it asks for information that the public submits already. This change falls within OMB Control Number 3060-1042 as it relates to the scope of software development staff to improve the development of FCC public facing systems and plan for software enhancements, issues, or requests from the public.

The additional website is created as follows:

• The FCC is proposing to add certain questions on a website that would streamline the process for submitting requests for further environmental review under 47 CFR § 1.1307(c) and Section XI of Appendix C to Part 1, Title 47. The questions are information that members of the public otherwise submit to the Commission staff or to customer support through the Licensing and Customer Support Help Desk Form when they request further environmental review of a proposed wireless deployment. Specifically, the website would ask the following questions:

• Filer identifying information—e.g., name; phone number; email address.
  
  

• Deployment identifying information—e.g., facility location; facility type; status of construction; other relevant information (if available).
  
  

• Basis for request, including summary of the request and any relevant attachments.
  
  

• Consent to forward request to relevant parties (if necessary).
