BLS) mechanism. While ICLS supported
only lines used to provide traditional
voice service (including voice service
bundled with broadband service), CAF–
BLS also supports consumer broadbandonly loops. In March 2016, the
Commission adopted the Rate-of-Return
Reform Order to continue modernizing
the universal service support
mechanisms for rate-of-return carriers.
The Rate-of-Return Reform Order
replaced the Interstate Common Line
Support (ICLS) mechanism with the
Connect America Fund—Broadband
Loop Support (CAF–BLS) mechanism.
While ICLS supported only lines used to
provide traditional voice service
(including voice service bundled with
broadband service), CAF–BLS also
supports consumer broadband-only
loops. For the purposes of calculating
and monitoring CAF–BLS, rate-of-return
carriers that receive CAF–BLS must file
common line and consumer broadbandonly loop counts on FCC Form 507,
forecasted common line and consumer
broadband-only loop costs and revenues
on FCC Form 508, and actual common
line and consumer broadband-only loop
costs and revenues on FCC Form 509.
See 47 CFR 54.903(a).
In December 2018, the Commission
adopted the December 2018 Rate-ofReturn Reform Order to require rate-ofreturn carriers that receive Alternative
Connect American Model (A–CAM) or
Alaska Plan support to file line count
data on FCC Form 507 as a condition of
high-cost support. Historically, all rateof-return carriers received CAF BLS or,
prior to that, ICLS, and were required to
file line count data on FCC Form 507 as
a condition of that support. In recent
years, some rate-of-return carriers have
elected to receive A–CAM I, A–CAM II,
or Alaska Plan instead, and those
carriers were not required to file line
count data because the requirement to
file applied only to rate-of-return
carriers receiving CAF BLS. In order to
restore a data set that the Commission
relied on to evaluate the effectiveness of
its high-cost universal service programs,
the Commission revised its rules in that
Order to require all rate-of-return
carriers to file that data. While carriers
receiving CAF–BLS must file the line
count data on March 31 for line counts
as of the prior December 31, the A–CAM
I, A–CAM II, and Alaska Plan carriers
will be required to file on July 1 of each
year to coincide with other existing
requirements in OMB Control No. 3060–
0986. Connect America Fund et al., WC

Order). See also 47 CFR 54.313(f)(5).
The Commission therefore proposes
to revise this information collection. We
also propose to increase the burdens
associated with existing reporting
requirements to account for additional
carriers that will be subject to those
requirements.
