    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is seeking public comments on a proposal to reduce the paperwork burden required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and the Small Business Paperwork Relief Act of 2002. This proposal focuses on simplifying the process for digital FM radio stations to report changes and requests regarding their operations, such as using different power levels on their digital sidebands, through an updated form 2100, Schedule 335-FM. The updated rules also encourage digital FM stations to operate with greater flexibility by allowing them to notify the FCC instead of applying annually for experimental authorization, which reduces regulatory barriers and encourages more stations to adopt these digital broadcasting methods. The FCC aims to alleviate the information collection burden, especially for small businesses with fewer than 25 employees.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to make it easier for radio stations that use a new kind of music technology to report their information. They're doing this by making a new, simpler form and asking for ways to make it even better, especially for small businesses.

    The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is seeking public comments as part of its efforts to reduce paperwork, particularly the burden on small businesses with fewer than 25 employees. This is part of a requirement by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, and no new data collection can proceed without a valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. Comments on the proposed information collection about broadband location reporting are due by January 3, 2025, and the FCC seeks ways to improve the collection process and reduce the burden on respondents. The information collected is crucial to monitor broadband deployment and ensure it aligns with public interest and support obligations.

    Simple Explanation

    The FCC wants to make sure that filling out their forms isn't too hard, especially for small businesses, so they are asking people to share their ideas on how to make this easier by January 3, 2025. They need a special number to keep collecting this information, which helps them keep track of internet services and make sure they're doing a good job.
