Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Regulations

Short Statement: The number of respondents/responses, burden hours and annual costs have been significantly reduced because some of the rules in this collection are no longer applicable because some Phase 1 licensees are no longer issued. In other respects, some areas of this collection are nil pending the potential influx of re-auctioned licensees. Therefore, the Commission is reporting a program change for the total annual burden hours and annual costs.
