The Commission is seeking a three year extension from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for the information collection requirements contained in paragraph (n) of Section 1.9020, Spectrum manager leasing arrangements, paragraph (m) of Section 1.9030, Long-term de facto transfer leasing arrangements, paragraph (o) of Section 1.9035, Short-term de facto transfer leasing arrangements, Section 20.18(r), Contraband Interdiction System (CIS) requirement, and Section 20.23(a), Contraband wireless devices in correctional facilities, good faith negotiations. On March 24, 2017, the Federal Communications Commission released a Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, Promoting Technological Solutions to Combat Contraband Wireless Devices in Correctional Facilities, GN Docket No. 13-111, FCC 17-25 (Report and Order and Further Notice), in which the Commission took important steps to help law enforcement combat the serious threats posed by the illegal use of contraband wireless devices by inmates. Across the country, inmates have used contraband devices to order hits, run drug operations, operate phone scams, and otherwise engage in criminal activity that endangers prison employees, other inmates, and innocent members of the public. In the Report and Order, the Commission streamlined the process of deploying contraband wireless device interdiction systems – systems that use radio communications signals requiring Commission authorization – in correctional facilities. The action will reduce the cost of deploying solutions and ensure that they can be deployed more quickly and efficiently. In particular, the Commission waived certain filing requirements and provided for immediate approval of the spectrum lease applications needed to operate these systems.
