## Summary

The FCC is checking in on some paperwork rules that affect businesses and local governments using special contraband detection systems. They want your thoughts on how to make these forms easier and less time-consuming, with comments due by April 10, 2026. This review helps keep things clear and fair without adding extra costs or hassle.

## Abstract

As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the following information collections. Comments are requested concerning: whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Commission, including whether the information shall have practical utility; the accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on the respondents, including the use of automated collection burden on small business concerns with fewer than 25 employees. The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. No person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a valid OMB control number.

- Good-Faith Lease Negotiations and STA Process: mixed, medium. The FCC requires Commercial Mobile Radio Service (CMRS) licensees to negotiate in good faith with entities seeking to deploy a CIS; if there is no agreement after a 45-day period, the CIS provider may request Special Temporary Authority (STA) from the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau. A CMRS lice…
- 911 Routing Requirement and PSAP Opt-Out: mixed, high. CIS providers regulated as private mobile radio service (PMRS) must route all 911 calls from correctional facilities to the local public safety answering point (PSAP), but a PSAP can inform the CIS provider that it does not want to receive calls from a given facility, in which case the CIS provider…
