Equipment testing is performed and
data is gathered to provide information to aid in controlling
interference to radio communications. Data collected verifies
compliance of equipment to the FCC Rules. The manufacturer or
equipment supplier further confirms compliance with the Commission
Rules by including a Supplier's Declaration of Conformity in the
literature furnished with the equipment. The test data are retained
by the equipment manufacturer and made available upon request to
the Commission.
This collection involves a
Supplier’s Declaration of Conformity procedure change after the
adoption of FCC 22-84. This is a revision to the information
collection request resulting in a program/adjustment change. The
program change (effect of the rules) is that the eligibility
restrictions will result in 167 fewer applicants resulting in a
decrease to the total respondents from 8,338 to 8,171 (-167).
However, continued growth in participation in the program will
result in a re-adjustment of 496 new applicants reflecting an
increase to the total respondents from 8,171 to 8,500 (+496), total
responses 16,675 to 17,000 (+325), and total annual burden hours
from 158,422 to 161,500 (+3,078). An adjustment was made to the
annual cost due to the widespread availability of testing entities,
competitive nature of these services, and testing scenarios that
are less complex, on average, than had been originally estimated by
the Commission. The cost estimate is being reduced by $ 2,000 from
$4,000 per application (-$ 2,000) resulting in a decrease total
annual cost of $ 33,352,000 to $17,000,000 (-$16,352,000).
