SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 3060–0809.
OMB Approval Date: December 31,
2007.
Expiration Date: January 31, 2011.
Title: Communications Assistance for
Law Enforcement Act (CALEA).
Form No.: Not applicable.
Estimated Annual Burden: 350
responses; 17.93 hours per response;
6275 hours total per year.
Obligation to Respond: Mandatory for
system security filings and voluntary for
section 107(c) and 109(b) petitions.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
Neither CALEA system security filings
nor section 107(c) and 109(b) petitions.
Needs and Uses: The
Communications Assistance for Law
Enforcement Act (CALEA) requires the
Commission to create rules that regulate
the conduct and recordkeeping of lawful
electronic surveillance. CALEA was
enacted in October 1994 to respond to
rapid advances in telecommunications
technology and eliminate obstacles
faced by law enforcement personnel in
conducting electronic surveillance.
Section 105 of CALEA requires
telecommunications carriers to protect
against 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 sections 1.20004 and 1.20005 of the
Commission’s rules, which became
effective on February 12, 2007 when
OMB approved their information
collection requirements. The Second
Report and Order established new
guidelines for filing section 107(c)
petitions, section 109(b) petitions, and
monitoring reports (FCC Form 445). The
monitoring reports were required on
only one occasion and no renewal of
that requirement is necessary. CALEA
section 107(c)(1) permits a petitioner to
apply for an extension of time, up to
two years from the date that the petition
is filed, and to come into 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 (system security
statements are currently approved under
the existing OMB 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 time to comply
with CALEA; these provisions apply to
all carriers subject to CALEA and are
voluntary filings. (d) Section 109(b),
request for reimbursement of CALEA;
these provisions apply to all carriers
subject to CALEA and are necessary for
carriers seeking relief under this section
of the CALEA statute.

responses; 4 hours per response; 80
hours total per year.
