SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB Control Number: 3060-0261. Title: Section 90.215, Transmitter Measurements. Form Number: N/A. Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other for-profit, not-for-profit institutions, and state, local or tribal government. Number of Respondents and Responses: 184,655 respondents, 409,048 responses. Estimated Time per Response: .033 hours. Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement. Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Statutory authority for this information collection is contained in 47 CFR 303(f). Total Annual Burden: 13,499 hours. Total Annual Cost: N/A. Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: There is no need for confidentiality. Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this expiring information collection to OMB after this comment period to obtain the full three year clearance from them. The Commission will be submitting this information collection as an extension (no change in the recordkeeping requirement). The Commission is reporting a 8,541 hour increase which is due to an adjustment that corrects errors detected in the previous calculations. Therefore, the Commission is reporting more accurate estimates to the OMB. Section 90.215 requires station licensees to measure the carrier frequency, output power, and modulation of each transmitter authorized to operate with power in excess of two watts when the transmitter is initially installed and when any changes are made which would likely affect the modulation characteristics. Such measurements, which help ensure proper operation of transmitters, are to be made by a qualified engineering measurement service, and are required to be retained in the station records, along with the name and address of the engineering measurement service, and the person making the measurements.
