This ICR is approved for the focus group and pre-test portions. Once the FCC has completed this work, the agency should resubmit any revisions, including changes to the supporting statements and the survey instrument. Additionally, for the main survey, the FCC has agreed that the final report prepared by the contractors, Scott Savage and Donald Waldman, will contain nonresponse bias analysis. The analysis will examine nonresponse bias present in the survey response rates of panel members. The analysis will use multivariate techniques to identify the characteristics of cases selected for the survey that were least likely to respond. Cases will be coded as either responding or not responding and multivariate techniques will be used to identify which case characteristics are correlated with nonresponse. The nonresponse bias discussion in the report will review existing analyses of the nonresponse bias associated with the recruitment of panel members into the Knowledge Networks panel. In addition, the procedures used to develop the post-stratification weights that adjust for non-response will be discussed.

Section 202(h) of the 1996 Telecommunications Act requires the Commission to review its media ownership rules quadrennially to determine whether its rules “are necessary in the public interest as the result of competition.” The Commission is then required to repeal or modify any regulation it determines no longer to serve the public interest. This Consumer Survey (Consumer Survey or Information Collection) will be used in its determination.
The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) requests OMB approval to submit the attached information collection under the “emergency processing” provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (5 CFR 1320.13). The Commission is requesting clearance for a new information collection in the form of a consumer survey related to the Commission’s Media Ownership proceeding. The Commission is asking for a 17-day public comment period. The Commission will make the emergency submission to OMB on the first day that the public comment begins. Therefore, OMB will be able to begin its review of the collection at the same time that the Commission is seeking comments from the public. The Commission requests OMB approval for this information collection seventeen days after OMB receives the collection, November 22, 2010. The Commission respectfully requests emergency processing and approval from OMB because this information collection is critical to the development and completion of its statutorily-mandated proceeding required pursuant to Section 202(h) of the 1996 Telecommunications Act. Specifically, the Commission is required to review its media ownership rules quadrennially to determine whether its rules “are necessary in the public interest as the result of competition.” The Commission is then required to repeal or modify any regulation it determines no longer to serve the public interest. The consumer survey and associated study will be used in its determination.
