The Commission is requesting OMB approval for a revision of this information collection. The Commission previously adopted two new information collection requirements that received OMB approval.

The burden for the monthly reporting requirement has been eliminated and we now seek continued OMB approval for the special access performance metric information requirement (quarterly reporting requirement) will be extended (continued). The Commission has established a new framework to govern the provision of in-region, long-distance services that allows the BOCs to provide in-region, interstate, long distance services either directly or through affiliates that are neither section 272 separate affiliates nor rule 64.1903 affiliates, see Section 272 Sunset Order, FCC 07–159. Because the BOCs are no longer required to comply with the section 272 structural safeguards, the Commission established special access performance metrics reporting requirements, i.e., ordering, provisioning, and repair and maintenance to ensure that the BOCs and their independent incumbent LEC affiliates do not engage in non-price discrimination in the provision of special access services to unaffiliated entities. The information gleaned from these performance metrics will provide the Commission and other interested parties with reasonable tools to monitor each BOC’s performance in providing these special access services to itself and its competitors.

In the Fifth Report and Order in FCC 99–206, the Commission permitted price cap local exchange carriers (LECs) to introduce new services on a streamlined basis, without prior approval. The Commission adopted rules to eliminate the public interest showing required by section 69.4(g) and eliminated the new services test (except in the case of loop-based new services) required under sections 69.49(f) and (g). These modifications eliminated delays that existed for the introduction of new services as well as encouraging efficient investment and innovation.
