FCC Seeks Comments to Cut Paperwork
The Federal Communications Commission is asking the public to comment on its information collections under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 to reduce burdens and make forms clearer and easier to use. The notice explicitly says this effort is intended to help anyone who fills out FCC forms and calls out small businesses with fewer than 25 employees as especially affected.
No Penalty Without Valid OMB Number
The notice reminds the public that the FCC may not conduct or sponsor an information collection unless it displays a valid OMB control number, and that no person shall be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection that does not display a valid OMB control number. This protects anyone who deals with FCC forms if an OMB control number is not shown.
