SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control No.: 3060–XXXX.
Title: Surrenders of Authorizations for
International Carrier, Space Station and
Earth Station Licensees.
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: New collection.
Respondents: Business or other for-
profit.
Number of Respondents: 306.
Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 306 hours.
Total Annual Cost: N/A.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: This collection will
be submitted as a new collection to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) in order to obtain the full three
year clearance. The Federal
Communications Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is requesting that the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) approve the establishment of a
new collection for surrenders of
authorization for international carriers
(214 authorizations), space stations and
earth stations. A surrender of
authorization is the licensee’s voluntary
cancellation of a license (or
authorization) to provide international
telecommunications services, such as
discontinuing operation of a space
station.
This new collection is being initiated
as a result of the Commission’s release
of Public Notice (DA 06–569) on March
15, 2006 titled, ‘‘International Bureau
Announces New and Improved Filing
Modules Within Its MyIBFS Electronic
Filing System: Surrender of
Authorization and Improved Space
Station Milestone Filing.’’ The Public
mstockstill on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
Notice announced the International
Bureau’s launching of an E-filing
module for surrendering authorizations
and an improved milestone filing
module for satellite space stations
within its MyIBFS consolidated
VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:12 Oct 24, 2006 Jkt 211001
licensing and electronic filing system.
(Note: The OMB approved the electronic
filing of milestones under OMB Control
No. 3060–1007). Additionally, the
Commission is requesting the OMB’s
approval of mandatory electronic filing
of surrenders of authorizations that do
not fall under Part 25 of the
Commission’s rules. Currently, the
surrender module is available to
licensees in MyIBFS who are not
required to comply with Part 25 on a
voluntary basis. (Note: The OMB
approved electronic filing of all Part 25-
related applications and associated
documents under OMB Control No.
3060–0678).
Without this collection of
information, licensees would be
required to submit surrenders of
authorizations to the Commission by
letter which is more time consuming
than submitting such requests to the
Commission electronically. In addition,
Commission staff would spend an
extensive amount of time processing
surrenders of authorizations received by
letter. This new collection of
information saves time (and burden) for
both licensees and Commission staff
since they are received in MyIBFS
electronically and include only the
information that is essential to process
the request(s) in a timely manner.
Furthermore, the E-filing module
expedites the Commission staff’s
announcement of surrenders of
authorizations via Public Notice.
OMB Control No.: 3060–0775.
Title: Section 64.1903, Obligations of
All Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers
(LECs).
Form No.: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for-
profit.
Number of Respondents: 10.
Estimated Time per Response: 6,056
hours.
Frequency of Response:
Recordkeeping requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 60,560 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $1,215,000.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Needs and Uses: This collection will
be submitted as an extension of a
currently approved collection to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) in order to obtain the full three
year clearance.
In CC Docket Nos. 96–149 and 96–61,
the Commission imposed recordkeeping
requirements on independent local
exchange carriers (LECs). Independent
LECs wishing to offer international,
interexchange services must comply
with the separate affiliate requirements
of the Competitive Carrier Fifth Report
PO 00000 Frm 00046 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\25OCN1.SGM
and Order in order to do so. One of
these requirements is that the
independent LEC’s international,
interexchange affiliate must maintain
books of account separate from such
LEC’s local exchange and other
activities. This regulation does not
require that the affiliate maintain books
of account that comply with the
Commission’s Part 32 rules; rather, it
refers to the fact that as a separate legal
entity, the international, interexchange
affiliate must maintain its own books of
accounts in the ordinary course of its
business.
This recordkeeping requirement is
used by Commission staff to ensure that
independent LECs providing
international, interexchange services
through a separate affiliate are in
compliance with the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended, and with
Commission policies and regulations.

Needs and Uses: 47 CFR 76.501 Note
2(f)(1) requires limited partners,
Registered Limited Liability
Partnerships (‘‘RLLPs’’), and Limited
Liability Companies (‘‘LLCs’’)
attempting to insulate themselves from
attribution to file a certification of ‘‘non-
involvement’’ with the Commission.
LLCs who submit the non-involvement
certification also are required to submit
a statement certifying that the relevant
state statute authorizing LLCs permits
an LLC member to insulate itself in the
manner required by our criteria. 47 CFR
76.501 Note 2, 76.503 Note 2, and
76.504 Note 2, also provide that officers
and directors of an entity are considered
to have a cognizable interest in the
entity with which they are associated. If
any such entity engages in businesses
other than video programming-related
activities, it may request the
Commission to waive attribution for any
officer or director whose duties and
responsibilities are wholly unrelated to
the entity’s video-programming
activities. The officers and directors of
a parent company of a video-
programming business, with an
attributable interest in any such
subsidiary entity, shall be deemed to
have a cognizable interest in the
subsidiary unless the duties and
responsibilities of the officer or director
involved are wholly unrelated to the
video-programming subsidiary and a
