provides the Commission, the carriers,
and others information on how U.S.
international carriers use their circuits.
The Commission uses the information
from the circuit-status reports to ensure
that carriers with market power do not
use their access to circuit capacity to
engage in any anti-competitive behavior.
The Commission also uses the reports to
implement the requirement in Section 9
of the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, that carriers pay annual
regulatory fees for each of the bearer
circuits they own.
