Application for Consent to
Assignment of Broadcast Station Construction Permit or License, FCC
Form 314; Application for consent to Transfer Control of Entity
Holding Broadcast Station Construction Pe
On January 28, 2010, the Commission
adopted a First Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (the Order) in MB Docket No. 09-52; FCC 10-24. The
Order adopts rule changes designed to streamline and clarify
certain procedures associated with the award of broadcast radio
construction permits by competitive bidding. In the Order, the
Commission also adopted a priority under Section 307(b) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, to assist federally
recognized Native American Tribes and Alaska Native Villages
(Tribes), enrolled members of Tribes, and entities primarily
owned or controlled by Tribes or enrolled members of Tribes, in
obtaining broadcast radio construction permits designed primarily
to serve tribal lands (the Tribal Priority). Applicants
affiliated with Tribes who meet certain conditions regarding tribal
membership and signal coverage qualify for the Tribal
Priority.
We have program changes to the
annual cost burden of +$48,200 and +510.00 to the annual burden
hours due to the adoption of information collection requirements
contained in the Order. The rules which impose information
collection requirements are designed to facilitate opportunities
for participation in the broadcasting industry by members of Native
American Tribes and Alaska Native Villages who avail themselves of
the Tribal Priority but may need or desire to assign or transfer
stations obtained using the Tribal Priority. The Commission also
has adjustments to the total annual cost burden of +$15,630,000
which are due to increases in consulting fees.
