FCC Information Collection Submitted to OMB for Review Under Paperwork Reduction Act
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has submitted an information collection to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval, as mandated by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995. This process is part of the FCC's ongoing obligation to minimize unnecessary paperwork burdens placed on the public and other federal agencies. As part of this notice, the FCC is inviting public comment on the proposed information collection. Members of the public and other federal agencies have an opportunity to weigh in on whether the collection is necessary, its estimated burden, and how it might be improved. Additionally, pursuant to the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, the FCC is specifically soliciting feedback on how the information collection burden can be further reduced for small businesses with fewer than 25 employees. This reflects a targeted effort to ease regulatory compliance costs for smaller entities.
