SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: Review of the Section 251 

Unbundling Obligations of Incumbent 

Local Exchange Carriers, CC Docket No. 

03–338 and WC Docket No. 04–313, 

FCC 04–290, Order on Remand. 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other for– 

profit; not–for–profit institutions, and 

state, local or tribal government. 

Number of Respondents: 645 

respondents; 645 responses. 

Estimated Time Per Response: 8 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion 

reporting requirement, recordkeeping 

requirement and third party disclosure 

requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this collection of 

information is contained in 47 U.S.C. 

section 251 of the Telecommunications 

Act of 1996. 

Total Annual Burden: 5,160 hours. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

The Commission is not requesting 

respondents to submit or disclose 

confidential information. However, in 

certain circumstances, respondents may 

voluntarily choose to submit 

confidential information pursuant to 

applicable Commission confidentiality 

rules. 

Need and Uses: The Commission will 

submit this expiring information 

collection to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) during this comment 

period in order to obtain the full three 

year clearance from them. There is no 

change in the reporting, recordkeeping 

and/or third party disclosure 

requirements. There is no change in the 

Commission’s burden estimates. 

Section 251 is designed to accelerate 

private sector and deployment of 

telecommunications technologies and 

services by spurring competition. In 

order to foster competition in the local 

telephone market, the 

Telecommunications Act of 1996 

requires incumbent local exchange 

carriers (incumbent LECs) to share 

certain elements of their local telephone 

networks, providing them to other 

carriers at reasonable prices on an 

unbundled basis. These ‘‘unbundled 

network elements (UNEs)’’ are necessary 

for competition because the only 

alternative, building entire new 

telephone networks, would be 

prohibitively expensive for new 

entrants. 

In Order FCC 03–36, the Commission 

adopted rules and regulation designed 

to eliminate operation barriers to 

competition in the telecommunications 

services market and implement certain 

provisions of section 251, including the 

UNE obligations of incumbent LECs. 

In the Order on Remand, FCC 04–290, 

the Commission responded to a decision 

by the United States Court of Appeals 

for the District of Columbia that vacated 

the ‘‘sub–delegation’’ of authority to 

state commissions and vacated and 

remanded certain nationwide 

impairment findings, including mass 

market switching and dedicated 

transport. 

The information collection 

requirements in this submission to the 

OMB is to implement the requirements 

of section 251 of the Act.
