FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION


Information Collection Being Reviewed by the Federal 
Communications Commission Under Delegated Authority

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, 
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501-3520), the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or the 
Commission) invites the general public and other Federal agencies to 
take this opportunity to comment on the following information 
collection. Comments are requested concerning: whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the Commission, including whether the information 
shall have practical utility; the accuracy of the Commission's burden 
estimate; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information collected; 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; and 
ways to further reduce the information collection burden on small 
business concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
    The FCC 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 PRA that does not display a valid Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) control number.

DATES: Written PRA comments should be submitted on or before April 1, 
2014. If you anticipate that you will be submitting 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 PRA comments to Cathy Williams, FCC, via email 
[email protected] and to [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the 
information collection, contact Cathy Williams at (202) 418-2918.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No.: 3060-0751.
    Title: Contracts and Concessions, 47 CFR 43.51.

    Total Annual Burden: 300 hours.
    Annual Cost Burden: None.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: In general, there is no need 
for confidentiality with this collection of information.
    Needs and Uses: This collection will be submitted as an extension 
(no change in reporting or recordkeeping requirements) after this 60-
day comment period to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in 
order to obtain the full three year clearance.
    The Commission has determined that the authorized resale of 
international private lines inter-connected to the U.S. public switched 
network would tend to divert international message telephone service 
(IMTS) traffic from the settlements process and increase the U.S. net 
settlements deficit. The information will be used by the Commission in 
reviewing the impact, if any, that end-user private line 
interconnections have on the Commission's international settlements 
policy. The data will also enhance the ability of both the Commission 
and interested parties to monitor the unauthorized resale of 
international private lines that are interconnected to the U.S. public 
switched network.

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary, Office of the Secretary, Office of Managing Director.
