What the agency says

In this document, the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) announces that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved, for a period of three years, the information collections associated with the rules adopted in three rulemakings and with updates to the Form 312, including Schedules A, B, and S, and Form 312-R. Specifically, rules were adopted in: a Report and Order, FCC 19-93, in IB Docket No. 06-160 (DBS Licensing Report and Order); a Report and Order, FCC 20-159, in IB Docket No. 18-314 (Satellite Services Report and Order); and a Report and Order, FCC 22-63, in IB Docket Nos. 20-330 and 22-273, (17 GHz Report and Order).
