A. Reports require declaration: all reports filed with the commission or the administrator must be filed with a declaration from the chief financial officer of the entity or the person who prepared the reports on behalf of the entity that the information is correct and the filing is made subject to the penalty of perjury provided for in Section 30-25-1 NMSA 1978.

B. Time for reporting: where no date is specified for a report, or when a request is made by the administrator for information necessary for the administration of the fund, the administrator shall specify when the report must be filed.

C. Reporting forms: contributing companies and ETCs shall report information in the manner prescribed by the administrator. The administrator shall not require reporting that will be unduly burdensome.

D. Electronic filing: the administrator shall accept electronic reporting when practicable.

E. Confidentiality: the commission shall have access to all information reported to the administrator. Contributing companies may request that company-specific information required by the reporting requirements of this rule be treated as confidential by so indicating at the time the information is submitted. The commission shall make all decisions regarding disclosure of company-specific information and may request further information or justification from the contributing company to ensure uniformity of confidential treatment of all information submitted by contributing companies. Nothing in this rule shall preclude commission issuance of an umbrella protective order identifying what reported data shall be, or shall not be, deemed confidential. The administrator shall keep confidential all company-specific information obtained from contributing companies for which confidential treatment is requested, shall not use such information except for purposes of administering the fund, and shall not disclose such information in company-specific form unless directed to do so by the commission.

F. The commission may require the administrator to modify any of its report formats to solicit additional information necessary for the administration of the state universal service program, including possible addition of a revenue report or to delete information that is not necessary.
