FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
Notice of Public Information Collection(s) Being Submitted for
Review to the Office of Management and Budget
October 27, 2005.
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden invites the general public
and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the
following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, Public Law 104-13. An agency may not
conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid control number. No person shall be subject to any
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information subject
to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that does not display a valid
control number. Comments are requested concerning (a) whether the
proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the Commission, including whether the
[[Page 66410]]
information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
Commission's burden estimate; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information on the respondents, including
the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be
submitted on or before December 2, 2005. If you anticipate that you
will be submitting PRA comments, but find it difficult to do so within
the period of time allowed by this notice, you should advise the
contact listed below as soon as possible.
ADDRESSES: Direct all Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments to Judith
B. Herman, Federal Communications Commission, Room 1-C804, 445 12th

0214 or via the Internet at Judith-B.Herman@fcc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control No.: 3060-0987.
Title: 911 Callback Capability: Non-initialized Phones.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for-profit, and State, local and
tribal governments.
Number of Respondents: 3,137.
Estimated Time Per Response: .50-3 hours.
Frequency of Response: One time reporting requirement and third
party disclosure requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 4,885 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $661,125.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: The Commission seeks three-year approval for an
extension (no change in requirements) for this information collection.
This collection places reporting and third party requirements on
wireless and wireline carriers and equipment manufacturers aimed at
responding to the problem of the inability of emergency workers to
contact for further critical information a 911 caller using a non-
initialized wireless telephone or a ``911 only'' phone, which do not
have dialable numbers. To advise the public and emergency workers of
this limitation and to thus advise them in using such phones in
emergency situations to provide as much critical information,
particularly regarding location, the Commission adopts labeling,
software, and public education requirements.
Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
