of these regimes is the regime set forth
in section 272 of the Communications
Act and the Commission’s
implementing rules, 47 CFR section 272.
Under this regime, a BOC and its section
272 affiliate may not jointly own
transmission and switching equipment.
The separate section 272 affiliate must
maintain separate books of account and
have separate officers and directors. The
separate section 272 affiliate may not
obtain credit under arrangements that
would permit the creditor to look to the
assets of the BOC. The section 272
affiliate must conduct all transactions
with the BOC on an arm’s length basis,
pursuant to the Commission’s affiliate
transaction rules, with the terms and
conditions of such transactions reduced
to writing and available for public
inspection on the Internet. Section
272(d) states that companies required to
maintain a separate affiliate ‘‘shall
obtain and pay for a Federal/State audit
every two years conducted by an
independent auditor to determine
whether such company has complied
with this section and the regulations
promulgated under this section, and
particularly whether such company has
complied with the separate accounting
requirements under [section 272(b)].’’
These information collection
requirements are intended to prevent
discrimination, cost misallocation and
other anti-competitive conduct by the
BOCs.

any penalty for failing to comply with
a collection of information subject to the
Paperwork Reduction Act that does not
display a valid OMB control number.
DATES: Written PRA comments should
be submitted on or before July 23, 2008.

biennial, annual, and one time reporting
requirements; recordkeeping; and third

Obligation to Respond: Mandatory as
required by section 222 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 222.
Total Annual Burden: 350,704 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $3,000,000.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
The Commission is not requesting that
the respondents submit confidential
information to the FCC. Respondents
may, however, request confidential
treatment for information they believe to
be confidential under 47 CFR Section
0.459 of the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: Section 222 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. Section 222,
establishes a duty of every
telecommunications carrier to protect
the confidentiality of its customers’
CPNI, which includes personally
identifiable information derived from a
customer’s relationship with a provider
of communications services. This
information collection implements the
statutory obligations of section 222.
These regulations impose safeguards to
protect customers’ CPNI against
unauthorized access and disclosure. In
March 2007, the Commission adopted
new rules in the CPNI Order, CC Docket
No. 96–115 et al., FCC 07–22, which
focused on the efforts of providers of
communications services to prevent
pretexting. These rules required
providers of communications services to
adopt additional privacy safeguards
that, the Commission believes, will
sharply limit pretexters’ ability to obtain
unauthorized access to the type of
personal customer information from
carriers that the Commission regulates.
In addition, in furtherance of the
Telephone Records and Privacy
Protection Act of 2006, the
Commission’s rules help ensure that law
enforcement will have necessary tools to

investigate and enforce prohibitions on
illegal access to customer records.
