Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
The Commission is not requesting
respondents to submit confidential
information to the Commission. If the
Commission requests respondents to
submit information to the Commission
that the respondents believe are
confidential, respondents may wish
request confidential treatment of such
information pursuant to 47 CFR 0.459 of
the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The Commission is
requesting an extension of a currently
approved collection from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB). There
is no change in the reporting,
recordkeeping and/or third party
disclosure requirements.
The Report and Order, FCC 00–193,
required the Commission to take action
to further accelerate the development of
competition in the local and longdistance telecommunications markets,
and to further establish explicit
universal service support that will be
sustainable in an increasingly
competitive marketplace, pursuant to
the mandate of the Telecommunications
Act of 1996. The Order required price
cap local exchange carriers (LECs) to
modify their annual access tariff filings
by: (1) Subtracting from their July 2000
tariff filings the estimated universal
service support that they were to receive
from Universal Service Administrative
Company (USAC) over that year; (2)
consolidating the access revenues that
they examined to determine whether to
charge the subscriber line charge (SLC)
cap or the actual cost of their access
lines; (3) if they choose to deaverage
their SLC, adding up the components of
their averaged traffic sensitive charges
to test whether the charges have reached
the target rate; and (4) calculating their
SLC rates by Unbundled Network
Element Zone. See 47 CFR 61.45–61.49.
The Commission requires price cap
LECs who choose not to follow the
voluntary portions of the CALLS
Proposal to submit cost support
information, which the Commission
would use to set their access rate levels.

Title: Section 64.1903, Obligations of
Independent Incumbent Local Exchange
Carriers (LECs) Subject to Rate of Return
Regulation.
Form Number: N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 255 respondents; 255
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 500
hours–6,056 hours.
Frequency of Response:
Recordkeeping requirements.
Obligation to Respond: Mandatory.
Statutory authority for this information
collection is contained in 47 U.S.C. 151,
152, 154, 201, 202, 251, 271, 272, and
303(r) of the Communications Act of
1934, as amended.
Total Annual Burden: 155,280 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
There is no need for confidentiality.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
will submit this collection to the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) for
approval of an extension of an existing
collection in order to obtain the three
year clearance from them.
The Commission imposed
recordkeeping requirements on
independent local exchange carriers
(LECs). Independent incumbent LECs
wishing to offer international,
interexchange services must comply
with the requirements of the
Competitive Carrier Fifth Report and
Order, CC Docket Nos. 96–149, 96–61
and 00–175. One of the requirements is
that the independent incumbent LEC’s
international, interexchange affiliate (for
facilities-based providers of
international, interexchange services)
must maintain books of account
separate from such LEC’s local exchange
and other activities. See 47 CFR 64.1903
for the specific recordkeeping
requirements. In May of 2013, the
Commission granted, in part, a petition
for forbearance from the separate
affiliate requirement, 47 CFR 64.1903,
for independent incumbent local
exchange carriers (LECs) that are subject
to price cap regulation and adopted a
Second Further Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking to consider modifying or
eliminating the separate affiliate
requirement for independent incumbent
LECs that are subject to rate-of-return
regulation, see Petition of USTelecom
for Forbearance Under 47 U.S.C. 160(C)

VerDate Sep<11>2014

there has been a change to
recordkeeping requirement and the
Commission’s previous burden
estimates.
This recordkeeping requirement is
used by the Commission to ensure that
independent incumbent LECs that
provide international, interexchange
services do so in compliance with the
Communications Act, as amended, and
with Commission policies and
regulations.
