Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 14 / Friday, January 21, 2022 / Notices
Commission will treat as presumptively
confidential any particular information
identified as confidential by the
provider in accordance with the
Freedom of Information Act and
Commission rules. Each confidential
document should be stamped and
submitted to the Secretary’s Office with
an accompanying cover letter, as
specified by the Protective Order.
Needs and Uses: In the 2021 ICS
Order, WC Docket No. 12–375, FCC 21–
60, 86 FR 40682, the Commission
continued its reform of the ICS industry
by, among other things, directing the
Commission’s Wireline Competition
Bureau (WCB) and Office of Economics
and Analytics (OEA) (collectively,
WCB/OEA) to collect data and other
information regarding ICS providers’
operations, costs, demands, and
revenues. The Commission explained
that it would use this Third Mandatory
Data Collection to set permanent
interstate and international ICS
provider-related rate caps that more
closely reflect providers’ costs of serving
correctional facilities. The Commission
also emphasized that those data would
enable it to evaluate and, if warranted,
revise the current ancillary service
charge caps.
The Commission delegated authority
to WCB/OEA to implement the Third
Mandatory Data Collection—including
determining and describing the types of
information to require providers to
submit regarding their operations, costs,
demand, and revenues—and directed
WCB/OEA to develop a template and
instructions for the collection.
Pursuant to their delegated authority,
WCB/OEA drafted proposed
instructions, a template, and a
certification form for the Third
Mandatory Data Collection. See Third
Mandatory Data Collection Proposed
Instructions, available for download at
https://www.fcc.gov/sites/default/files/
third_mandatory_data_collection_
instructions.docx. Under WCB/OEA’s
proposals, ICS providers would be
required to submit the required data
using a reporting template, to be filed
through the Commission’s electronic
comment filing system (ECFS). The
proposed template consists of a Word
document (Appendix A to the
instructions) for responses requiring
narrative information and Excel
spreadsheets (Appendix B to the
instructions) for responses that require
specific numbers or information. ICS
providers must also submit an audited
financial statement or report for each
Year from 2019 through 2021, and a
signed certification of truthfulness,
accuracy, and completeness. The
instructions, template, and certification
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 256001
form will simplify compliance with, and
reduce the burden of, this data
collection.
On September 22, 2021, WCB/OEA
released the Third Mandatory Data
Collection (MDC) Public Notice (DA 21–
1192, WC Docket No. 12–375 (WCB/
OEA Sept. 22. 2021)), seeking comment
on all aspects of the proposed
collection, including the draft
instructions, template, and certification
form. The MDC Public Notice was
published in the Federal Register
contemporaneously with the 60-Day
Notice for this information collection.
See 86 FR 54897 (2021). WCB/OEA
stated that it would consider comments
submitted in response to the 60-Day
Notice and the MDC Public Notice in
finalizing this information collection
prior to submitting the documents to the
Office of Management and Budget.
After considering the comments and
reply comments filed in response to the
MDC Public Notice and the 60-Day
Notice, WCB/OEA released an Order on
January 18, 2022 adopting the Third
Mandatory Data Collection, and issuing
the related instructions, template, and
certification form. See Third Mandatory
Data Collection Adoption Order, (DA
22–52, WC Docket No. 12–375 (WCB/
OEA Jan. 18, 2022)), available at https://
www.fcc.gov/document/wcb-and-oeaadopt-inmate-calling-services-datacollection. This Order implemented
WCB/OEA’s proposals, with
refinements responding to suggestions
offered by the commenters. Under WCB/
OEA’s Order, ICS providers will be
required to submit the required data
using a reporting template to be filed
through the Commission’s electronic
filing system (ECFS) in accordance with
instructions adopted by WCB/OEA. See
Third Mandatory Data Collection
Instructions, available for download at:
Third Mandatory Data Collection
Instructions. The template consists of a
Word document (Appendix A to the
instructions) for responses requiring
narrative information and Excel
spreadsheets (Appendix B to the
instructions) (collectively, FCC Form
2302(a)) for responses that require
specific numbers for information. The
template must be submitted in a
machine-readable and manipulatable
format and may not be converted to a
different format, such as a PDF. WCB/
OEA also adopted the requirement that
a senior executive of each provider
certify as to the truthfulness, accuracy,
and completeness of the provider’s
response to the data collection (FCC
Form 2302(b)). In addition, WCB/OEA
adopted its proposal to require all
providers to submit audited financial
statements or reports, or similar

documentation, for the reporting period,
to the extent they have been produced
in the ordinary course of business.
Providers must submit these reports for
each year of the reporting period or
certify that they have not produced such
reports in the ordinary course of
business. These documents will be
submitted for approval by the Office of
Management and Budget as FCC Form
2302(a) and FCC Form 2302(b).
