These determinations require complex, fact-intensive analysis, e.g., ‘‘whether forbearance from enforcing the provision or regulation will promote competitive market conditions.’’ Under the new filing procedures, the Commission requires that petitions for forbearance must be ‘‘complete as filed’’ and explain in detail what must be included in the forbearance petition. The Commission also incorporates by reference its rule, 47 CFR 1.49, which states the Commission’s standard ‘‘specifications as to pleadings and documents.’’ Precise filing requirements are necessary because of section 10’s strict time limit for Commission action. Also, commenters must be able to understand clearly the scope of the petition in order to comment on it.
