Records may include information about individuals or households, * e.g.,* personally-identifiable information (PII), and the use(s) and disclosure of this information is governed by the requirements of a system of records notice (SORN), FCC/WTB-1, “Wireless Services Licensing Records.” There are no additional impacts under the Privacy Act. *Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:* To protect the privacy of its applicants, the FCC will redact the telephone number(s) of the applicants and the birth date of the Commercial Radio Operator applicants. *Needs and Uses:* The Commission will submit this collection to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)during this comment period as an extension (no change in the reporting, recordkeeping and/or third party disclosure requirements). The Commission is amending the FCC Form 605 Schedule D to rearrange the layout of Question 2 for Vanity Call Sign Change, to further clarify the filing instructions, and to define the term “in-law”. The Commission is requesting an adjustment reduction in the number of respondents/responses from 175,000 to 130,000. There is an increase in the annual cost to the respondent due to an increase in the average filing fee required to accompany applications. The total annual cost increased by $138,000.
