SUMMARY: The Commission adopted
rules to implement section 222 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, which governs carriers’ use
and disclosure of customer proprietary
network information. The rules in
§§ 64.2007, 64.2008, and 64.2009
required Office of Management and
Budget approval and the Commission
stated previously in its Federal Register
publication that it would announce the
effective date of these rules when
approved. This document announces
the effective date of these rules.
The revisions to 47 CFR 64.2007,
addition of 47 CFR 64.2008, and
revision and amendments to 47 CFR
64.2009, published at 67 FR 59205,

The FCC
published a document in the Federal
Register, 67 FR 59205, September 20,
2002, that sets forth an effective date of
October 21, 2002, except for
amendments to § 64.2007, addition of
§ 64.2008, and amendments and
revisions to § 64.2009, which contained
information collection requirements that
had not been approved by the Office of
Management and Budget. The document
stated that the Commission will publish
a document in the Federal Register
announcing the effective date of these
rules. On February 24, 2003, the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
approved the information collection
requirements contained in 47 CFR
64.2007, 64.2008, and 64.2009 pursuant
to OMB Control No. 3060–0715.
Accordingly, the information collection

SUMMARY: The Commission adopted
rules to implement section 222 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, which governs carriers’ use
and disclosure of customer proprietary
network information. In this document,
the Commission responds to the
practice of ‘‘pretexting’’ by
strengthening its rules to protect the
privacy of customer proprietary network
information (CPNI) that is collected and
held by providers of communications
services.
Revised paragraph (o) of
§ 64.2003, new paragraphs (a), (b), (d),
(m), (q), and (r) of § 64.2003, revised
paragraph (c)(3) of § 64.2005, revised
paragraph (b) of § 64.2007, revised
paragraph (e) of 64.2009, and new
§§ 64.2010 and 64.2011 contain
information collection requirements that
have not been approved by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB). The
Commission will publish a document in
the Federal Register announcing the
effective date. Written comment by the
public on the modified information
collection requirements are due August
7, 2007. Paragraphs (c), (e) through (l),
(n), and (p) of § 64.2003 do not contain
information collection requirements that
have not been approved by OMB and
therefore are effective on June 8, 2007.

Synopsis of the Report and Order
1. On August 30, 2005, the Electronic
Privacy Information Center (EPIC) filed
a petition with the Commission asking
the Commission to investigate
telecommunications carriers’ current
security practices and to initiate a
rulemaking proceeding to consider
establishing more stringent security
standards for telecommunications
carriers to govern the disclosure of
CPNI. In particular, EPIC proposed that
the Commission consider requiring the
use of consumer-set passwords, creating
audit trails, employing encryption,
limiting data retention, and improving
notice procedures. On February 14,
2006, the Commission released the EPIC
CPNI Notice, 71 FR 13317 (March 15,
2006), in which it sought comment on
(a) the nature and scope of the problem
identified by EPIC, including pretexting,
and (b) what additional steps, if any, the
Commission should take to protect
further the privacy of CPNI.
Specifically, the Commission sought
comment on the five EPIC proposals
listed above. In addition, the
Commission tentatively concluded that
it should amend its rules to require
carriers annually to file their section
64.2009(e) certifications with the
Commission. It also sought comment on
whether it should require carriers to
obtain a customer’s opt-in consent
before the carrier shares CPNI with its
joint venture partners and independent
contractors; whether to impose rules
relating to how carriers verify
customers’ identities; whether to adopt
a set of security requirements that could
