the FCC’s Rules), Order, 2 FCC Rcd 5770
(1987), modified on recon, 3 FCC Rcd
6375 (1988) (ARMIS Order). Also, see 47
CFR Part 43, Section 43.21.
Frequency of Response: Annual
reporting requirement.
Total Annual Burden: 4,160 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $0.00.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No
impacts.
Nature of Extent of Confidentiality:
This collection does not address
information of a confidential nature.
Respondents may request confidential
treatment of information they believe
should be withheld from public
inspection under 47 CFR 0.459 of the
Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The ARMIS Joint
Cost Report, FCC Report 04–03, contains
financial and operating data. The Report
details the incumbent local exchange
carriers regulated and nonregulated cost
and revenue allocations by study area
pursuant to Part 64 of the Commission’s
rules. This information is also a part of
the data necessary to support the
Commission’s audit and other oversight
functions. This data provides the
necessary detail to enable the
Commission to fulfill it regulatory
responsibility. The Commission is
revising the number of respondents
filing this ARMIS report from 83 to 80
to reflect three carriers that were sold.
We are also increasing the burden hours
to reflect the Commission’s requirement
in its Report and Order and
Memorandum Opinion and Order
(MOO) released August 31, 2007. The
Commission required AT&T, Qwest, and
Verizon to include the imputation
charges it debits to Account 5280
accompanied by an explanatory footnote
for each line item identifying the
amount imputed in three ARMIS report
filings. The MOO required this
information in FCC Reports 43–01,
ARMIS Annual Summary Report; 43–
02, ARMIS USOA Report; and, 43–03,
ARMIS Joint Cost Report.
