FCC Seeks Comment to Cut Paperwork
The FCC is asking the public and federal agencies to comment on its information-collection rules to reduce paperwork burdens and make forms easier to use. The agency specifically asks for ideas to minimize burden on small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees.
No Penalty Without OMB Control Number
The notice reiterates that the FCC may not collect information unless a valid OMB control number is displayed, and no person can be penalized for failing to comply with an information collection that does not display a valid OMB control number. This protects respondents to FCC information requests from penalties when the required control number is missing.
