Background: On July 14, 1999, the

Commission amended its rules so that

telecommunications carriers and other

service providers need only file one

form—the Telecommunications

Reporting Worksheet—for the purpose

of determining their contributions to the

universal service support mechanisms,

the TRS Fund, and the cost recovery

mechanisms for numbering

administration and local number

portability.1 In that order, the

Commission concluded that carriers and

other filers of the new worksheet need

only file one copy of the new worksheet.

Accordingly, the Commission directed

the administrators to file with the

Bureau a summary of their proposed

procedures for distributing the data

obtained on the consolidated worksheet

and to include a description of how

related costs will be equitably

apportioned.

On October 12, 1999, the program

administrators filed a joint submission

addressing data collection procedures

and a proposed cost allocation

methodology. In a subsequent Order,

released on February 4, 2000, the

Bureau directed the National Exchange

Carriers Association (NECA) to perform

the data collection functions for the

April 2000 filing of the

Telecommunications Reporting

Worksheet and set out procedures for

the administrators to submit proposed

arrangements for future filings no later

than May 15, 2000.2 On May 15, 2000,

the administrators submitted their

supplemental joint submission

regarding procedures for handling the

consolidated worksheet. See

Supplemental Joint Submission of

Program Administrators Regarding

Consolidated Data Collection

Procedures and Cost Allocation

Methodology, CC Docket No. 98–171

(filed May 15, 2000) (Supplemental

Joint Submission). Through the Public

Notice summarized here, the Bureau

seeks comment on the proposals

contained in that joint submission.

Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.415,
