FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information or copies of the information collections contact Les Smith at
(202)418-0217 or via the Internet at *lesmith@fcc.gov* . SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: *OMB Control Number:* 3060-0636. *Title:* Equipment Authorization—Declaration of Compliance, Parts 2 and 15. *Form Number:* N/A. *Type of Review:* Reinstatement without change of a previously approved collection for which approval has expired. *Respondents:* Business or other for-profit entities. *Number of Respondents:* 4,000. *Estimated Time per Response:* 19 hours (avg.). *Frequency of Response:* Recordkeeping; One-time reporting requirement; Third party disclosure. *Total Annual Burden:* 76,000 hours. *Total Estimated Cost:* $12,000,000. *Needs and Uses:* The equipment authorization procedure requires the manufacturer or equipment supplier to test the product to ensure compliance with technical standards for limiting radio frequency emissions and to include a declaration of compliance
(DoC)with the standards in the literature furnished with the equipment. Testing and compliance documentation aid in controlling potential interference to radio communications. The test data may be used to investigate complaints of harmful interference; to determine that the equipment marketed complies with the applicable FCC; and to insure that the operation of the equipment is consistent with the documented test results. FCC rules require the responsible party to make the statement of compliance and supporting technical data available to the Commission upon request. The FCC rules also authorize personal computers based on tests and approval of their individual components, without further testing of the completed assembly. Federal Communications Commission.
