Telecommunications Act of 1996, CC Docket No. 96-98, Second Report and 
Order and Memorandum Opinion and Order; Second Order on 
Reconsideration; CC Docket No. 99-273, First Report and Order.

    Number of Respondents: 2,000 respondents; 2,000 responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 114 hours (average).
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement and third 
party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Mandatory.
    Total Annual Burden: 228,030 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: $60,000.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Respondents are not required 
to submit or disclose confidential information.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission will submit this information 
collection to the OMB as an extension after this 60 day comment period 
to obtain the full three-year clearance from them. The number of 
respondents, total burden hours and annual costs remain unchanged.
    In the First Report and Order issued under CC Docket No. 99-273 in 
2001, the Commission adopted several of its tentative proposals. The 
Commission concluded that the local exchange carriers (LECs) must 
provide competing directory assistance (DA) providers that qualify 
under section 251 with nondiscriminatory access to the LEC's local 
directory assistance databases, and must do so at nondiscriminatory and 
reasonable rates. The Commission determined that LECs are not required 
to grant competing DA providers nondiscriminatory access to non-local 
director assistance databases. All of the requirements are implemented 
under sections 251 and/or 222 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

    Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
