The Second Report and Order required several different collections of information: (a) Within 90 days of the effective date of the Second Report and Order, facilities based broadband Internet access and interconnected Voice over Interconnected Protocol (VOIP) providers newly identified in the First Report and Order in this proceeding were required to file system security statements under the Commission’s rules. (Security systems are currently approved under the existing OMB Control No. 3060–0809 information collection).

the unlawful interception of communications passing through their 
systems. Law enforcement officials use the information maintained by 
telecommunications carriers to determine the accountability and 
accuracy of telecommunications carriers' compliance with lawful 
electronic surveillance orders.
    On May 12, 2006, the Commission released a Second Report and Order 
and Memorandum Opinion and Order in ET Docket No. 04-195, FCC 06-56, 
which became effective August 4, 2006, except for Sec. Sec.  1.20004

compliance with a particular CALEA section 103 capability requirement. 
CALEA section 109(b) permits a telecommunication carrier covered by 
CALEA to file a petition with the FCC and an application with the 
Department of Justice (DOJ) to request that DOJ pay the costs of the 
carrier's CALEA compliance (cost-shifting relief) with respect to any 
equipment, facility or service installed or deployed after January 1, 
1995. The Second Report and Order required several different 
collections of information:
    (a) Within 90 days of the effective date of the Second Report and 
Order, facilities based broadband Internet access and interconnected 
Voice over Interconnected Protocol (VOIP) providers newly identified in 
the First Report and Order in this proceeding were required to file 
system security statements under the Commission's rules. (Security 
systems are currently approved under the existing OMB Control No. 3060-
0809 information collection).
    (b) All telecommunications carriers, including broadband Internet 
access and interconnected VoIP providers, must file updates to their 
systems security statements on file with the Commission as their 
information changes.
    (c) Petitions filed under Section 107(c), request for additional
