Chance to Cut Paperwork Burden

The FCC is asking the public to comment on its information collections to reduce paperwork burdens and make forms clearer. The agency specifically asks for ways to further reduce the information collection burden on small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees, which could save time and money for those firms.

OMB Number Needed to Enforce Forms

The FCC states it may not conduct or sponsor any 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 that does not display a valid OMB control number.
