number. No person shall be subject to

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, and state, local, or tribal
government.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 24,700 respondents; 168,900
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour
per form.
Frequency of Response: On occasion,
annual reporting requirement, and
recordkeeping requirements.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. 1, 4(i), 4(j),
201–205, 214, 254, 312(d), 312(f), 403,
and 503(b) of the Communications Act
of 1934, as amended.
Total Annual Burden: 168,900 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Privacy Impact Assessment: No
impact(s).
Nature and Extent of Confidentiality:
The Commission does not request that
respondents submit confidential
information to the Commission. If the
Commission requests applicants to
submit information that the respondents
believe is confidential, respondents may
request confidential treatment under 47
CFR 0.459 of the Commission’s rules.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
seeks to revise OMB 3060–0856 to
conform this information collection to
changes implemented in the Report and
Order and Further Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (E-Rate Modernization
Order) (WC Docket No. 13–184, FCC 14–
99, 79 FR 49160, August 19, 2014).
Collection of the information on FCC
Form 472 is necessary to establish the
process and procedure for an eligible
applicant to seek reimbursement from
the E-rate program for the discounts on
services paid in full to a service
provider. The Universal Service
Administrative Company (USAC)
reviews the information collected on
FCC Form 472, along with invoices from
the service provider, to verify the
eligibility of the services for E-rate
support, approve the amount that
should be reimbursed, ensure that each
service provider has provided
discounted services within the current
funding year for which it submits an
invoice to USAC, and confirm that
invoices submitted from service
providers for the costs of discounted
eligible services do not exceed the
amount that has been approved.
Collection of information on FCC
Form 473 is necessary to establish that
the participating service provider is
eligible to participate in the E-rate

program, confirm that the invoice forms
submitted by the service provide are in
compliance with the Federal
Communications Commission’s E-rate
rules, and enable the service provider to
certify its compliance with the E-rate
rules. The FCC Form 473 is also used by
USAC to assure that the dollars paid out
by the universal service fund go to
eligible providers.
Collection of information on FCC
Form 474 is necessary to establish the
process and procedure for a service
provider to seek payment for the
discounted costs of services it provided
to billed entities for eligible services.
After receiving an invoice from the
service provider, together with an FCC
Form 474, USAC is able to verify that
the eligible and approved amounts can
be paid. The FCC Form 474 is also used
to ensure that each service provider has
provided discounted services within the
current funding year for which it
submits an invoice to USAC and that
invoices submitted from service
providers for the costs of discounted
eligible services do not exceed the
amount that has been approved.
This information collection is being
revised pursuant to program and rule
changes in the E-Rate Modernization
Order that require the collection of
information necessary to allow USAC to
make direct payments to applicants, and
add service provider certifications to the
FCC Form 473, the Service Provider
Annual Certification Form. The
information collection is also being
revised to accommodate USAC’s new
online portal and the E-Rate
Modernization Order requirement that
the forms in this collection be filed
electronically.
All of the requirements contained in
this information collection are necessary
for the Commission to ensure
compliance by applicants and/or
vendors with the requirement of the Erate program, to protect the program
from waste, fraud and abuse and to
evaluate the extent to which the E-rate
program is meeting the statutory
objectives specified in section 254(h) of
the 1996 Act, and the Commission’s
own performance goals established in
the E-Rate Modernization Order.
