to meet the electrical demands of the
vehicle systems, resulting in lower fuel
consumption and lower CO2 emissions.
Some comments on EPA’s proposed rule
for GHG standards for the 2016–2025
model years suggested that EPA provide
a credit for high-efficiency alternators
on the pre-defined list in the
regulations. While EPA agreed that
high-efficiency alternators can reduce
electrical load and reduce fuel
consumption, and that these impacts are
not seen on the emission test procedures
because accessories that use electricity
are turned off, EPA noted the difficulty
in defining a one-size-fits-all credit due
to lack of data. Since then, however a
methodology has been developed that
scales credits based on the efficiency of
the alternator; alternators with
efficiency (as measured using an
accepted industry standard procedure)
above a baseline value could get credits.
EPA has previously approved credits for
high-efficiency alternators using this
methodology for Ford Motor Company,
General Motors Corporation, Fiat
Chrysler Automobiles, Hyundai, Kia,
and Toyota Motor Company. Details of
the testing and analysis can be found in
the manufacturer’s applications.
III. EPA Decision Process
EPA has reviewed the applications for
completeness and is now making the
applications available for public review
and comment as required by the
regulations. The off-cycle credit
applications submitted by the
manufacturer (with confidential
business information redacted) have
been placed in the public docket (see
ADDRESSES section above) and on EPA’s
website at https://www.epa.gov/vehicleand-engine-certification/complianceinformation-light-duty-greenhouse-gasghg-standards.
EPA is providing a 30-day comment
period on the applications for off-cycle
credits described in this notice, as
specified by the regulations. The
manufacturers may submit a written
rebuttal of comments for EPA’s
consideration, or may revise an
application in response to comments.
After reviewing any public comments
and any rebuttal of comments submitted
by manufacturers, EPA will make a final
decision regarding the credit requests.
EPA will make its decision available to
the public by placing a decision
document (or multiple decision
documents) in the docket and on EPA’s
website at the same manufacturerspecific pages shown above. While the
broad methodologies used by these
manufacturers could potentially be used
for other vehicles and by other
manufacturers, the vehicle specific data

needed to demonstrate the off-cycle
emissions reductions would likely be
different. In such cases, a new
application would be required,
including an opportunity for public
comment.

Third Further Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking (Second Report and Order),

Jkt 250001
WC Docket No. 12–375, FCC 15–136,
the Commission undertook
comprehensive reform of the ICS rules.
The Commission, among other things,
established new rate caps for interstate
and intrastate ICS calls and limited and
capped ancillary service charges. To
enable the Commission to ensure
compliance with the rules adopted in
the Second Report and Order and
monitor the effectiveness of the ICS
reforms, the Commission required all
ICS providers to file annual reports
providing data and other information on
their ICS operations.
In particular, the Commission
required each ICS provider to file a
report annually specifying, for the prior
calendar year: Interstate, international,
and intrastate minutes of use by facility;
and the name, size, and type of facility
being served; fees for any ancillary
services, the amount of these fees, and
the number of times each fee was
imposed; monthly site commission
payments; rates and minutes of use for
video calling services by facility, as well
as ancillary fee charges for such
services; the number of disabilityrelated calls, problems associated with
such calls, and ancillary fees charged in
connection with such calls; and the
number of complaints received related
to, for example, dropped calls and poor
call quality and the number of instances
of each by TTY and TRS users. The
annual reports ensure that the
Commission has access to the
information it needs to fulfill its
regulatory duties, while minimizing the
burden on ICS providers
The Commission required that an ICS
provider certify annually the accuracy
of the data and other information
submitted in the provider’s annual
report and the provider’s compliance
with the Commission’s ICS rates.
Pursuant to the authority delegated to it
by the Commission in the Second
Report and Order, the Commission’s
Wireline Competition Bureau (Bureau)
created standardized templates for the
annual reports (FCC Form 2301(a)) and
certifications (FCC Form 2301(b)). The
Bureau provided instructions that
explain the reporting and certification
requirements and reduce the burden of
the data collection. The Commission
also required ICS providers to disclose
to consumers their interstate, intrastate,
and international rates and ancillary
service charges.
On June 13, 2017, the D.C. Circuit
vacated the video visitation
requirements in the annual report.
Pursuant to the D.C. Circuit’s mandate
and its delegated authority, the Bureau
has removed the video visitation
reporting requirements in the annual
PO 00000

report and amended the instructions to
reflect the removal of this requirement.
As part of the Bureau’s continued
administration of the ICS data
collection, the Bureau has modified the
instructions for FCC Form 2301(a) and
FCC Form 2301(b) in several additional
respects. These changes make the
instructions clearer and will make the
annual reports easier to understand and
analyze. The amended instructions
require ICS providers to: Submit all
reports using the electronic Excel
template provided by the Bureau, and to
provide the data in a machine-readable,
manipulatable format; provide city and
state information for each facility
served; group the facilities served by
underlying contracts in the section for
ICS Rates; separately report and explain
their rates for debit/prepaid calls and
collect calls; report fixed site
commission payments by facility as well
as by contract; and explain certain
entries, including any entry that omits
requested information. These changes
will impose only a minimal additional
burden on providers because they
address only information that providers
usually and customarily compile in the
normal course of their business
activities. The information will help the
Commission continue to analyze
changes in the ICS industry, to monitor
compliance with the ICS rules, and to
enforce these rules.
