Numbering Plan (NANP), which is
currently being used by the United
States and 19 other countries. Under the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, the Commission was given
‘‘exclusive jurisdictions over those
portions of the North American
Numbering Plan that pertains to the
United States.’’ Pursuant to that
authority, the Commission conducted a
rulemaking in March 2000 that the
Commission found that mandatory data
collection is necessary to efficiently
monitor and manage numbering use.
The Commission received OMB
approval for this requirement and the
following:
(1) Utilization/Forecast Report;
(2) Application for initial numbering
resource;
(3) Application for growth numbering
resources;
(4) Recordkeeping requirement;
(5) Notifications by state
commissions;
(6) Demonstration to state
commission; and
(7) Petitions for additional delegation
of numbering authority.
The data from this information
collection is used by the FCC, state
regulatory commissions, and the
NANPA to monitor numbering resource
utilization by all carriers using the
resource and to project the dates of area
code and NANP exhaust.

472, 473, and 474. The public burden
for the collection contained herein will
decrease to 158,000 burden hours.
The FCC Form 472 is used by an
eligible entity to seek reimbursement
from the service provider for the
discounts on services paid in full. After
receiving an invoice from the service
provider, together with an FCC Form
472, USAC is able to verify the eligible
service and approved amounts that
should be reimbursed and can make the
appropriate payment to the service
provider. The FCC Form 472 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.
The FCC Form 473 is used to verify
that the service provider is eligible to
participate in the schools and libraries
universal service support program (ERate program) and to confirm that the
invoice forms submitted by the service
provider are in compliance with the
Federal Communications Commission’s
E-Rate program 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.
The FCC Form 474 is used by an
eligible 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.
All of the requirements contained in
this information collection are necessary
to implement the Congressional
mandate for the E-Rate program and
reimbursement process.
