Please see the non-substantive change request justification for the reason behind this change request submission to the Office of Management (OMB) for review and approval.
The Commission is requesting a revision of the information collection previously approved by OMB related to the Commission hearing aid compatibility provisions. The revision is necessary to implement the final rules promulgated in the 2015 Fourth Report and Order, FCC 15-155 (Fourth Report and Order), which expanded the scope of the rules due to a shift from Commercial Mobile Radio Services (CMRS) to digital mobile service. This expanded scope will increase the potential number of respondents subject to this collection and correspondingly increase the responses and burden hours. To reflect the expanded scope, we request corresponding minor language changes to FCC Form 655 and to the form instructions.
