currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other for–
profit and not–for–profit institutions.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 1,258 respondents; 10,849
responses.
Estimated Time Per Response: 1 hour
to 90 hours.
Frequency of Response: Quarterly,
annual, one time, every three year

Obligation to Respond: Required to

Total Annual Burden: 46,877 hours.
Total Annual Cost: $48,900.
Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
The Commission does not request that
respondents submit confidential
information to the Commission. If the
respondents believe they have
information that is confidential, they
may request confidential treatment of
their information under 47 CFR 0.459 of
the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this expiring information
collection to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) after this comment
period to obtain the full, three–year

third party disclosure requirements. The
Commission is reporting a 6,426 hourly
increase adjustment and a $3,705
increase in annual costs.
Following the passage of the
Telecommunications Act of 1996, the
Commission adopted interstate access
charge and universal service support
reforms. The reforms were designed to
establish a ‘‘pro–competitive,
deregulatory national policy framework’’
for the United States
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 220001
telecommunications industry, and to
carry out the universal service policies
embodied in the1996 Act.
Specifically, the Commission aligned
the interstate access rate structure more
closely with the manner in which costs
are incurred, and created a universal
service support mechanism for rate–of–
return carriers (Interstate Common line
Support (ICLS)) to replace implicit
support in interstate access charges with
explicit support that is portable to all
eligible telecommunications carriers.
By merging Long Term Support (LTS)
with ICLS, the Commission made the
universal service mechanisms simpler
and more transparent, while ensuring
that rate–of–return carriers maintain
existing levels of universal service
support.
To administer the ICLS mechanism,
the Universal Service Administrative
Company (USAC) must collect certain
data. Specifically, the Administrator
must collect from each rate–of–return
carrier projected cost and revenue data
for the July 1 – July 30 funding year to
accurately distribute prospective ICLS
to those carriers.
The Administrator must also collect
from each rate–of–return carrier actual
cost and revenue data for the prior
calendar year in order to accurately
calculate the final ICLS for which the
carrier is eligible and perform true–ups
against the prospective ICLS. In order to
fulfill its obligation to prevent waste,
fraud, and abuse in the universal service
program, the Administrator must also
collect from selected carriers additional
cost and revenue data for the purpose of
validating the actual cost and revenue
data filed by rate–of–return carriers.
The Commission will use the
information collected to determine
whether and to what extent non–price
cap or rate–of–return carriers providing
the data are eligible to receive universal
service support. The Commission will
use the tariff data to make sure that rates
are just and reasonable, as required by
section 201(b) of the 1996 Act.

Synopsis of the Order
A. Background
1. Walter Edward Floyd, aka Eddie
Floyd, has been licensee of Station
K273AF since August 14, 2001. On
December 29, 2006, Floyd entered a
guilty plea in United States District
Court, District of Nevada to one count
of violating 18 U.S.C. 1956(a)(1)(B)(I),
involving money laundering, and one
count of violating 18 U.S.C. 2, aiding
and abetting a felony crime, both
felonies. According to a Memorandum
of Plea Negotiation, from approximately
April 19, 2002 to March 24, 2004, Floyd
provided real property located in Doyle,
California, to an individual by the name
of Daren Mabunda for the purpose of
cultivating marijuana. See United States
v. Walter Edward Floyd, Criminal No.
3:06–CR–21–RLH, Memorandum of Plea
Negotiation, (dated Dec. 22, 2006;
entered Dec. 29, 2006, U.S. District
Court, District of Nevada). Floyd drafted
a fictitious lease for the real property to
cover payments by Mabunda to Floyd
for the marijuana operation. Between
April 22, 2002, and August 18, 2003,
Floyd received payments from Mabunda
totaling $37,500, which Floyd deposited
in his bank accounts. In December 2003,
Floyd gave Mabunda 400,000 shares of
stock in a company he owned, ‘‘Nevada
Matters,’’ in exchange for approximately
$110,000. In February 2004, Floyd gave
Mabunda an additional 100,000 shares
in the company in exchange for $27,500.
The court found these payments
constituted money laundering by Floyd
in the total amount of $175,000. Floyd
acknowledged in the Memorandum of
Plea Negotiation that all payments he
received came from the proceeds of
Mabunda’s drug trafficking activity, and
Floyd engaged in the transactions with
Mabunda in order to conceal and
disguise the source of the funds. On
March 30, 2007, Floyd was sentenced to
48 months in federal prison, to
commence on June 1, 2007. See United
States v. Walter Edward Floyd, Criminal
No. 3:06–CR–0021–RLH–RAM,
Judgment, at 1–2 (Mar. 30, 2007). He
was released by the Federal Bureau of
Prisons on May 21, 2010, and is
currently under the jurisdiction of the
