I. Background

    On November 26, 2014, the Commission's Wireline Competition Bureau 
(Bureau) released an order extending the deadline for responding to the 
mandatory, one-time data collection in the Commission's special access 
proceeding. The Bureau extended the deadline for responding because of 
delays in the release of a database container to the public, which is 
necessary for filers to respond to the collection. Accordingly, for 
larger businesses with more than 1,500 employees required to provide 
data and information, the deadline is extended 45 days to January 29, 
2015. Other respondents with 1,500 or fewer employees are considered 
small for purposes of the collection and must file their responses by 
February 27, 2015. For those entities not providing data and 
information in response to the collection but that are otherwise 
required to certify that they are not a covered Provider, Purchaser or 
an entity that provides Best Efforts Business Broadband Internet Access 
Services, the filing deadline remains December 15, 2014 regardless of 
the entity's size.
    The Commission will use the data obtained from the collection for 
an analysis of the special access market as it considers reforming the 
pricing rules applicable to incumbent local exchange carriers that are 
subject to price cap regulation. For more information about the 
collection and the underlying rulemaking proceeding, see the 
Commission's Web site, https://www.fcc.gov/encyclopedia/special-access-data-collection-overview-0.
