two Louisiana environmental groups, 

the Sierra Club and Louisiana 

Environmental Action Network 

(plaintiffs), filed a lawsuit in Federal 

Court against the EPA, styled Sierra 

Club, et al. v. Clifford, et al., No. 96–

0527, (E.D. La.). Among other claims, 

plaintiffs alleged that EPA failed to 

establish Louisiana TMDLs in a timely 

manner. EPA proposes these 29 TMDLs

this lawsuit.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[CC Docket No. 96–45; DA 07–1327] 

Additional Comment Sought on 

Petition of Genesis Communications 

International, Inc. for Declaratory 

Rulings Regarding Lifeline Assistance 

Revenues 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice; solicitation of 

comments. 

SUMMARY: In this document, the 

Wireline Competition Bureau (Bureau) 

seeks to refresh the record on issues 

raised in the Petition of Genesis 

Communications International, Inc. 

(Genesis) for Declaratory Rulings 

Regarding Lifeline Assistance Revenues 

(Petition). Because comments and reply 

comments on the issue were filed 

several years ago, the passage of time 

and intervening developments have 

rendered the records developed by those 

commenters stale. Moreover, some 

issues raised by commenters may have 

become moot or irrelevant in light of 

intervening events. For these reasons, 

the Bureau requests that parties refresh 

the record with any new information or 

arguments they believe to be relevant to 

deciding the issues still pending. 

DATES: Comments are due on or before 

August 17, 2007. Reply comments are 

due on or before September 4, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications 

Commission, 445 12th Street, SW., 

Washington, DC 20554. See 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION for further 

filing instructions.

Dana Bradford, Telecommunications 

Access Policy Division, Wireline 

Competition Bureau, (202) 418–7400 or 

TTY: 202–418–0432. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a 

summary of Additional Comment 

Sought on Petition of Genesis 

Communications International, Inc. for 

Declaratory Rulings Regarding Lifeline 

Assistance Revenues, CC Docket No. 

96–45, DA 07–1327, released March 16, 

2007. 

1. In 2000, the Commission denied a 

complaint filed by Genesis against 

Pacific Bell (Pacific) seeking 

reimbursement of certain End User 

Common Line (EUCL) charges. Genesis 

then sought to recover the funds in a 

suit against the National Exchange 

Carrier Association, Inc. (NECA). 

Genesis and NECA subsequently agreed 

to stay the action pending referral to the 

Commission of Genesis’s claim for 

retroactive reimbursement via its 

petition in the above captioned docket. 

2. On November 16, 2000, Genesis 

filed the current Petition seeking a 

declaratory ruling from the Commission 

regarding: (1) Whether Commission 

certification of Genesis’s eligibility was 

a prerequisite to obtaining 

reimbursement from NECA for Lifeline 

discounts given to eligible end users 

under California’s Universal Lifeline 

Telephone Service program; and (2) 

whether Genesis was entitled to submit 

claims and receive reimbursement from 

NECA on a retroactive basis. The 

Petition was put on Public Notice for 

comment on March 27, 2001. In 

response, NECA and Genesis both 

asserted that, should reimbursement be 

warranted, the Universal Service 

Administrative Company (USAC) 

should disburse the funds. 

3. Since the dispute arose, the 

Commission has amended the Lifeline 

rules, and transferred responsibility for 

the program’s administration from 

NECA to USAC. The Bureau issues this 

Public Notice to update several issues 

contained in the current record, as well 

as any additional information that may 

have become relevant to the proceeding. 

4. Pursuant to §§ 1.415 and 1.419 of 

the Commission’s rules, 47 CFR 1.415, 

1.419, interested parties may file

August 17, 2007 and reply comments
