POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR RETENTION AND

DISPOSAL OF RECORDS: 

The National Archives and Records 

Administration (NARA) has not 

established a records schedule for the 

information in the Emergency 

Broadband Benefit Program system of 

records. Consequently, until NARA has 

approved a records schedule, USAC will 

maintain all information in the 

Emergency Broadband Benefit Program 

system of records will be maintained in 

accordance with NARA records 

management directives. 

ADMINSTRATIVE, TECHNICAL, AND PHYSICAL

SAFEGUARDS: 

The electronic records, data, and files 

are maintained in the FCC and the 

USAC computer network databases, 

which are protected by the FCC’s and 

USAC’s privacy safeguards, a 

comprehensive and dynamic set of IT 

safety and security protocols and 

features that are designed to meet all 

Federal IT privacy standards, including 

those required by the National Institute 

of Standard and Technology (NIST) and 

the Federal Information Security 

Management System (FISMA). In 

addition, access to the electronic files is 

restricted to authorized USAC and 

contractors’ supervisors and staff and to 

the FCC’s supervisors and staff in WCB 

and to the IT contractors who maintain 

these computer databases. Other FCC 

employees and contractors may be 

granted access only on a ‘‘need-toknow’’ basis. In addition, data in the 

network servers for both USAC and its 

contractors will be routinely backed-up. 

The servers will be stored in secured 

environments to protect the data. 

The paper documents and files are 

maintained in file cabinets in USAC and 

the contractors’ office suites. The file 

cabinets are locked when not in use and 

at the end of the business day. Access 

to these files is restricted to authorized 

USAC and its contractors’ staffs.

Records 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of a modified system of 

records. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Communications 

Commission (FCC or Commission or 

Agency) is modifying an existing system 

of records, FCC/WCB–1, Lifeline 

Program, subject to the Privacy Act of 

1974, as amended. This action is 

necessary to meet the requirements of 

the Privacy Act to publish in the 

Federal Register notice of the existence 

and character of records maintained by 

the agency. The Lifeline Program (or 

‘‘Lifeline’’) provides discounts for one 

Lifeline Program telephone per 

household (voice telephony) and 

broadband internet access service 

(BIAS) to qualifying low-income 

individuals. Individuals may qualify for 

Lifeline through proof of income or 

participation in another qualifying 

program. Since the Telecommunications 

Act of 1996 (1996 Act), the Lifeline 

Program has been administered by the 

Universal Service Administrative 

Company (USAC) under the direction of 

the Commission and, by delegation, of 

the Commission’s Wireline Competition 

Bureau (WCB). 

This system of records contains 

information about individuals who have 

applied to participate in the Lifeline 

Program, respondents to consumer 

surveys related to the Lifeline program, 

and enrollment representatives. The 

modifications described in this notice 

will allow USAC to maintain and 

administer this system in a manner that 

promotes efficiency and minimizes 

waste, fraud, and abuse. 

DATES: Written comments are due on or 

before March 29, 2021. This action 

(including the routine uses) will become 

effective on March 29, 2021 unless 

comments are received that require a 

contrary determination. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Margaret 

Drake, Senior Agency Official for 

Privacy, Federal Communications

Telecommunications Act of 1996 (1996 

Act), the Lifeline Program has been 

administered by the Universal Service

monitoring of enrollment 

representatives; 

(b) Updating the categories of records 

maintained in this system of records to 

simplify for readability, and include 

information requested for consumer 

survey development and execution, 

information requested to facilitate 

monitoring of enrollment 

representatives, addresses based on 

geographic coordinates (geolocation), 

internet Protocol (IP) address, Lifeline 

subscriber application number, and 

enrollment representative unique 

identifier numbers (Representative ID 

Number); 

(c) Updating the source of records 

maintained in this system of records to 

simplify the section for readability, 

include respondents to a consumer 

survey, and to better define individuals 

acting as agents who are now 

considered enrollment representatives; 

(d) Updating language in various 

routine uses: (1) FCC/USAC Program 

Management; (2) Third Party 

Contractors; (3) Business Process

and Program Eligibility Records’’ as 

duplicative of routine uses (5) and (7); 

(f) Adding a routine use to permit an 

individual’s Lifeline participation or 

qualification status to be shared with a 

Federal agency or contractor when a 

federal program administered by the 

agency or its contractor uses 

qualification for Lifeline as an eligibility 

criterion; and 

(g) Adding a routine use to facilitate 

consumer survey development and 

execution.

service agencies and other third parties 

that have been approved by USAC for 

purposes of assisting individuals in 

applying for and recertifying for Lifeline

informal complaint filed alleging a 

violation of FCC rules and regulations 

by an applicant, licensee, certified or 

regulated entity, or an unlicensed 

person or entity, the complaint may be 

provided to the alleged violator for a 

response. Where a complainant in filing 

his or her complaint explicitly requests 

confidentiality of his or her name from 

public disclosure, the Commission will 

endeavor to protect such information
