As described by Hawk, its proposed DBRS would use an interpreter (a ‘‘Communications Facilitator’’ (CF)) to sit with the deaf/ blind user, place or receive conventional voice-to-voice telephone calls on his or her behalf, and interpret the ensuing conversation(s). The CF would travel to the DBRS consumer’s location to assist in placing the call. Alternatively, a DBRS consumer could travel to a regional DBRS center to place a call through a CF. The Bureau seeks comment on the DBRS Petition, including, specifically, whether DBRS falls within the definition of TRS as set forth in section 225(a)(3) of the Communications Act of 1934, 47 U.S.C. 225(a)(3). The Bureau notes, for example, that Hawk’s proposed DBRS does not fit within the typical two-leg relay paradigm in which a relay center receives and places inbound and outbound calls between the end users to the relay call. Instead, the DBRS would employ a CF to assist the caller, in person, in making a telephone call. VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:42 Jan 03, 2008 Jkt 214001 Federal Communications Commission.
