FCC Seeks to Cut Small-Business Paperwork
The FCC is asking for public comment on ways to reduce paperwork burdens and to further reduce information-collection burden on small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees. The agency specifically asks for ideas to minimize burden using automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
Protections If OMB Number Is Missing
The FCC reminds the public that the Commission may not conduct or sponsor an information collection unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act that does not display a valid OMB control number.
