See Implementation of Section 6002(b) of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993; Annual Report and Analysis of Competitive Market Conditions With Respect to Mobile Wireless, Including Commercial Mobile Services, Fifteenth Report, 26 FCC Rcd 9664, 9694, n.54 (2011). 6 Signal Boosters Report and Order, 28 FCC Rcd at 1677 ¶ 34. This collection has been assigned OMB control number 3060-1189. See 5 C.F.R § 1320.5(b). 7 The Signal Boosters Report and Order required the disclosure be made on March 1, 2016, based upon a Public Notice released by the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau 30 days prior to the reporting date. Signal Boosters Report and Order, 28 FCC Rcd at 1677 ¶ 34. As the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau released this Public Notice on February 8, 2016, the actual filing due date is Wednesday, March 9, 2015. See 47 C.F.R. § 1.4(j). 2For each listed Consumer Signal Booster FCC ID, 8 wireless providers should publicly indicate whether they: (1) consent to use of the device; (2) do not consent to use of the device; or (3) are still considering whether or not they will consent to the use of the device. We will deem a wireless provider subject to this Public Notice to have complied with its reporting obligation if it files its status in this docket, WT 10-4. Providers also may publically disclose their status in another way of their choosing. Further, we recognize that all four nationwide providers have consumer booster information and registration mechanisms on their websites, and encourage them to also make this information available to consumers through their websites. For further information, contact Amanda Huetinck of the Mobility Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau at (202) 418-7090, or via e-mail at amanda.huetinck@fcc.gov. Action by the Chief, Mobility Division, Wireless Telecommunications Bureau. - FCC - 8 Wireless providers must report specifically with respect to each FCC ID in Attachment 1. As a courtesy, the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau also has provided the associated model names and numbers to the best of its ability through an informal search the Office of Engineering and Technology’s equipment authorization database (http://transition.fcc.gov/oet/ea/fccid/). Signal Booster manufacturers, however, may use other model names and/or numbers, and wireless providers should not rely solely on the model names and numbers we have provided in Attachment 1. 3Attachment 1 FCC Approved Consumer Signal Boosters 9 (as of February 2, 2016) Row Manufacturer FCC ID Model No. Model Name Initial Grant Date 01 Cellphone-Mate Inc.
