concerning: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Commission, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information collected; and
(d) ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on the
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Pursuant to the Small Business
Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public
Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4),
the FCC seeks specific comment on how
it might ‘‘further reduce the information

OMB Control Number: 3060–0741.
Title: Accelerating Wireline
Broadband Deployment by Removing
Barriers to Infrastructure Investment,
GN Docket No. 17–84.
Form Number(s): N/A.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 4,750 respondents; 471,920
responses.
Estimated Time per Response: 0.5–4.5
hours.
Frequency of Response: On occasion
reporting requirements; recordkeeping
and third-party disclosure requirements.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in 47 U.S.C. 222 and 251.
Total Annual Burden: 473,440 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No cost.
Needs and Uses: Section 251 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 251, is designed to
accelerate private sector development
and deployment of telecommunications
technologies and services by spurring
competition. Section 222(e) is also
designed to spur competition by
prescribing requirements for the sharing
of subscriber list information. These
information collection requirements are
designed to help implement certain
provisions of sections 222(e) and 251,
and to eliminate operational barriers to
competition in the telecommunications
services market. Specifically, these
information collection requirements
will be used to implement (1) local
exchange carriers’ (‘‘LECs’’) obligations
to provide their competitors with
dialing parity and non-discriminatory
access to certain services and
functionalities; (2) incumbent local

exchange carriers’ (‘‘ILECs’’) duty to
make network information disclosures;
and (3) numbering administration. In
November 2017, the Commission
adopted new rules concerning certain
information collection requirements
implemented under section 251(c)(5) of
the Act, pertaining to network change
disclosures. Most of the changes to
those rules applied specifically to a
certain subset of network change
disclosures, namely notices of planned
copper retirements. In addition, the
changes removed a rule that prohibits
incumbent LECs from engaging in useful
advanced coordination with entities
affected by network changes. In June
2018, the Commission revised its
network change disclosure rules to (1)
revise the types of network changes that
trigger an incumbent LEC’s public
notice obligation, and (2) extend the
force majeure provisions applicable to
copper retirements to all types of
network changes. The changes were
aimed at removing unnecessary
regulatory barriers to the deployment of
high-speed broadband networks.
OMB Control Number: 3060–0806.
Title: Universal Service-Schools and
Libraries Universal Service Program,
FCC Forms 470 and 471.
Form Number: FCC Forms 470 and
471.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents: State, local or tribal
government institutions, and other notfor-profit institutions.
Number of Respondents and
Responses: 43,000 respondents; 67,100

hours for FCC Form 470 (3 hours for
response; 0.5 hours for recordkeeping;
4.5 hours for FCC Form 471 (4 hours for
response; 0.5 hours for recordkeeping).
Frequency of Response: On occasion
and annual reporting requirements, and
recordkeeping requirement.
Obligation to Respond: Required to
obtain or retain benefits. Statutory
authority for this information collection
is contained in sections 1, 4(i), 4(j), 201–
205, 214, 254, and 403 of the
Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, 47 U.S.C. 151–154, 201–205,
218–220, 254, 303(r), 403 and 405.
Total Annual Burden: 273,950 hours.
Total Annual Cost: No Cost.
Needs and Uses: The Commission
seeks approval to extend the existing
collection 3060–0806 (FCC Forms 470
and 471). Collection of the information
on FCC Forms 470 and 471 is necessary
so that the Commission and USAC have
sufficient information to determine if
entities are eligible for funding pursuant
to the schools and libraries support
mechanism, to determine if entities are
complying with the Commission’s rules,
and to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse.
In addition, the information is necessary
for the Commission 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 performance
goals established in the E-rate
Modernization Order and Second E-rate
Modernization Order.
