Abstract: The Federal Communications Commission (Commission) requests an extension from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for a currently approved information collection under OMB Control Number 3060-1242. Under this one-time data collection, the Commission will collect information from a limited number of providers that will be used by the Commission to determine what areas are covered by qualified 4G LTE for purposes of compiling the map of areas presumptively eligible for MF-II support. The map will be the starting point for the MF-II challenge process through which interested parties may challenge the eligibility status of an area.
