(DoC) procedure was established in a
Report and Order, FCC 96–208, In the
Matter of Amendment of Parts 2 and 15
of the Commission’s Rules to Deregulate
the Equipment Authorization
Requirements for Digital Devices.
(a) The Declaration of Conformity
equipment authorization procedure, 47
CFR 2.1071, requires that a
manufacturers or equipment supplier
test a product to ensure compliance
with technical standards that limit radio
frequency emissions.
(b) Additionally, the manufacturer or
supplier must also include a DoC (with
the standards) in the literature furnished
with the equipment, and the equipment
manufacturer or supplier must also
make this statement of conformity and
supporting technical data available to
the FCC, at the Commission’s request.
(c) The DoC procedure represents a
simplified filing and reporting
procedure for authorizing equipment for
marketing.
(d) Finally, testing and documentation
of compliance are needed to control
potential interference to radio
communications. The data gathering are

This information collection addresses
the eligibility requirements that New
York winning bidders must meet before
the Wireline Competition Bureau
(Bureau) will authorize them to receive
Connect America Phase II support. For
each New York winning bid that
includes Connect America-eligible
areas, the Commission will authorize
Connect America support up to the total
reserve prices of all of the Connect
America Phase II auction eligible census
blocks that are included in the bid,
provided that New York has committed,
at a minimum, the same dollar amount
of New York support to the Connect
America-eligible areas in that bid.
Before Connect America Phase II
support is authorized, the Bureau will
closely review the winning bidders to
ensure that they have met the eligibility
requirements adopted by the
Commission and that they are
technically and financially qualified to
meet the terms and conditions of
Connect America support. To aid in
collecting this information regarding
New York State’s winning bidders and
the applicants’ ability to meet the terms
and conditions of Connect America
Phase II support in a uniform fashion,
the Commission has created the
proposed new FCC Form 5625, which
parties should use in their submissions
with the FCC.
