[EAS] 11.21(d) Foreign Language EAS Actions

[Sean Donelan]

The PRA review was approved by OMB on October 12, 2016, and effective 
November 3, 2016.

In language only a lawyer could love, from the FCC justification to OMB:

"This cost is a one-time cost, as EAS Participants are only required to 
file one report, and need not refile unless they subsequently engage in 
multilingual EAS alerting activities, in which case they must update their 
original report, and SECCs must in turn update the State EAS Plan."

I have no idea if that makes it a one-time exercise, or a recurring 
exercise everytime an EAS participant or SECC makes a change.
