255, 303(r), 403, 503, 716, 717, and 718 

of the Act, 47 U.S.C. 151–154, 255,

Total Annual Burden: 408,695 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: $110,588. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

Confidentiality is an issue to the extent 

that individuals and households 

provide personally identifiable 

information, which is covered under the 

FCC’s system of records notice (SORN), 

FCC/CGB–1, ‘‘Informal Complaints and 

Inquiries.’’ As required by the Privacy 

Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the Commission also 

published a SORN, FCC/CGB–1 

‘‘Informal Complaints and Inquiries’’, in 

the Federal Register on December 15, 

2009 (74 FR 66356) which became 

effective on January 25, 2010. 

In addition, upon the service of an 

informal or formal complaint, a service 

provider or equipment manufacturer 

must produce to the Commission, upon 

request, records covered by 47 CFR 

14.31 of the Commission’s rules and 

may assert a statutory request for 

confidentiality for these records. All 

other information submitted to the 

Commission pursuant to Subpart D of 

Part 14 of the Commission’s rules or to 

any other request by the Commission 

may be submitted pursuant to a request 

for confidentiality in accordance with 

47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission’s rules. 

Privacy Impact Assessment: Yes. The 

Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) was 

completed on June 28, 2007. It may be 

reviewed at: http://www.fcc.gov/omd/ 

privacyact/ 

Privacy_Impact_Assessment.html. The 

Commission is in the process of 

updating the PIA to incorporate various 

revisions made to the SORN. 

Note: The Commission will prepare a 

revision to the SORN and PIA to cover the 

PII collected related to this information 

collection, as required by OMB’s 

Memorandum M–03–22 (September 26, 

2003) and by the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a. 

Needs and Uses: On October 7, 2011, 

in document FCC 11–151, the 

Commission released a Report and 

Order adopting final rules to implement 

sections 716 and 717 of the 

Communications Act of 1934 (the Act), 

as amended, which were added to the 

Act by the ‘‘Twenty-First Century 

Communications and Video 

Accessibility Act of 2010’’ (CVAA). See 

Public Law 111–260, § 104. Section 716 

of the Act requires providers of 

advanced communications services and 

manufacturers of equipment used for 

advanced communications services to 

make their services and equipment 

accessible to individuals with 

disabilities, unless doing so is not 

achievable. See 47 U.S.C. 617. Section 

717 of the Act establishes new 

recordkeeping requirements and 

enforcement procedures for service 

providers and equipment manufacturers 

that are subject to sections 255, 716, and 

718 of the Act. See 47 U.S.C. 618. 

Section 255 of the Act requires 

telecommunications and interconnected 

VoIP services and equipment to be 

accessible, if readily achievable. See 47 

U.S.C. 255. Section 718 of the Act 

requires web browsers included on 

mobile phones to be accessible to and 

usable by individuals who are blind or 

have a visual impairment, unless doing 

so is not achievable. See 47 U.S.C. 619. 

Specifically, the rules adopted in 

document FCC 11–151 have the 

following possible related information 

collection requirements: 

(a) The rules adopted in document 

FCC 11–151 establish procedures for 

advanced communications service 

providers and equipment manufacturers 

to seek waivers from the accessibility 

obligations of section 716 of the Act 

and, in effect, waivers from the 

recordkeeping requirements and 

enforcement procedures of section 717 

of the Act. Waiver requests may be 

submitted for individual or class 

offerings of services or equipment 

which are designed for multiple 

purposes, but are designed primarily for 

purposes other than using advanced 

communications services. All such 

waiver petitions will be put on public 

notice for comments and oppositions. 

(b) The CVAA and the rules adopted 

in document FCC 11–151 require 

service providers and equipment 

manufacturers that are subject to 

sections 255, 716, or 718 of the Act to 

maintain records of the following: (1) 

Their efforts to consult with people with 

disabilities; (2) descriptions of the 

accessibility features of their products 

and services; and (3) information about 

the compatibility of their products with 

peripheral devices or specialized 

customer premises equipment 

commonly used by individuals with 

disabilities to achieve access. These 

recordkeeping requirements are 

necessary to facilitate enforcement of 

accessibility obligations. Document FCC 

11–151 provides flexibility by allowing 

covered entities to keep records in any 

format, recognizing the unique 

recordkeeping methods of individual 

entities. Because complaints regarding 

accessibility of a service or equipment 

may not occur for years after the release 

of the service or equipment, covered 

entities must keep records for two years 

from the date the service ceases to be 

offered to the public or the equipment 

ceases to be manufactured. Service 

providers and equipment manufacturers 

are not required to keep records of their 

consideration of achievability or the 

implementation of accessibility, but 

they must be prepared to carry their 

burden of proof in any enforcement 

proceeding, which requires greater than 

conclusory or unsupported claims. 

(c) The CVAA and the rules adopted 

in document FCC 11–151 require an 

officer of service providers and 

equipment manufacturers that are 

subject to sections 255, 716, or 718 of 

the Act to certify annually to the 

Commission that records are kept in 

accordance with the recordkeeping 

requirements. The certification must be 

supported with an affidavit or 

declaration under penalty of perjury, 

signed and dated by an authorized 

officer of the entity with personal 

knowledge of the representations 

provided in the company’s certification, 

verifying the truth and accuracy of the 

information. The certification must also 

identify the name and contact details of 

the person or persons within the 

company that are authorized to resolve 

accessibility complaints, and the agent 

designated for service of process. The 

certification must be filed with the 

Consumer and Governmental Affairs 

Bureau on or before April 1 each year 

for records pertaining to the previous 

calendar year. The certification must be 

updated when necessary to keep the 

contact information current. 

(d) The Commission also established 

procedures in document FCC 11–151 to 

facilitate the filing of formal and 

informal complaints alleging violations 

of sections 255, 716, or 718 of the Act. 

Those procedures include a 

nondiscretionary pre-filing notice 

procedure to facilitate dispute 

resolution. As a prerequisite to filing an 

informal complaint, complainants must 

first request dispute assistance from the 

Consumer and Governmental Affairs 

Bureau’s Disability Rights Office. 

The rules adopted in document FCC 

11–151 temporarily exempt advanced 

communications service providers and 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 42 / Friday, March 2, 2012 / Notices 12839 

equipment manufacturers from the 

accessibility obligations of section 716 

of the Act and, in effect, from the 

recordkeeping requirements and 

enforcement procedures of section 717 

of the Act, if they qualify as small 

business concerns under the Small 

Business Administration’s (SBA) rules 

and size standards for the industry in 

which they are primarily engaged. 

These size standards are based on the 

maximum number of employees or 

maximum annual receipts of a business 

concern. The SBA categorizes industries 

for its size standards using the North 

American Industry Classification 

System (NAICS). 

The temporary exemption will begin 

on the effective date of the rules 

adopted in document FCC 11–151 and 

will expire the earlier of the following: 

(1) The effective date of small entity 

exemption rules adopted pursuant to 

the Further Notice of Proposed 

Rulemaking in document FCC 11–151; 

or (2) October 8, 2013.
