Revision of currently approved collection. Respondents: Business or other for-profit (including small businesses). Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement. Estimated Annual Burden: 375 responses; 35.5 hours average burden per response; 13,313 hours total annual burden. Needs and Uses: FCC Form 349 is used to apply for authority to construct a new FM translator or FM booster broadcast station, or to make changes in the existing facilities of such stations. Some clarifications/revisions have been made in the engineering section of the form which will enable the applicant to submit only information needed to process the form. A question has been added to identify the type of alternative signal delivery that qualified FM translator/ booster stations will be using. In addition, the question regarding non-commercial educational applicants intending to operate on reserved channels has been eliminated. This question was only applicable to forms filed before 10/1/92. These changes will not affect the burden associated with this form. On 9/18/92, the Commission adopted Memorandum Opinion and Order which eliminated the requirement that the broadcast applicant report pending litigation. The portion of the question with pending litigation has been eliminated. The data is used by FCC staff to ensure that the applicant meets basic statutory requirements and will not cause interference to other licensed broadcast services.
