Non-Substantive Change Request

(OMB Control No. 3060-0918)

Purpose. The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) submits this non-substantive change request to an existing information collection (OMB Control No. 3060-0918). Under the existing information collection, all entities and individuals that must register and provide certain information to the Commission are required to keep the information updated. The Commission has amended 47 CFR § 1.8002(b)(2) to require that registrants update the information within 10 business days of a change to the information. The way in which registrants update the information remains unchanged: registrants may update their information electronically through CORES or by submitting the updated information via Form 161 to the Commission. The only change to Form 161 and COREs will be to include a statement that 47 CFR § 1.8002(b)(2)¹ requires registrants to update the information they have provided within 10 business days of a change to the information and instructions for submitting the updated information through CORES or by filing FORM 161. The burden hours and cost for this information collection remain unchanged.
