FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[OMB 3060–1044; FR ID 244093] 

Information Collection Being Reviewed 

by the Federal Communications 

Commission Under Delegated 

Authority 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort 

to reduce paperwork burdens, and as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act (PRA) of 1995, the Federal 

Communications Commission (FCC or

Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 178 / Friday, September 13, 2024 / Notices 74949 

the Commission) invites the general 

public and other Federal agencies to 

take this opportunity to comment on the 

following information collection. 

Comments are requested concerning: 

whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

the accuracy of the Commission’s 

burden estimate; ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; ways to minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on the respondents, 

including the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and ways to 

further reduce the information 

collection burden on small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 employees. 

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a 

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid control 

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

PRA that does not display a valid Office 

of Management and Budget (OMB) 

control number. 

DATES: Written PRA comments should 

be submitted on or before November 12, 

2024. If you anticipate that you will be 

submitting comments, but find it 

difficult to do so within the period of 

time allowed by this notice, you should 

advise the contact listed below as soon 

as possible. 

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to 

Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email PRA@

fcc.gov and to nicole.ongele@fcc.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

additional information about the 

information collection, contact Nicole 

Ongele, (202) 418–2991. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 3060–1044. 

Title: Review of the Section 251 

Unbundling Obligations of Incumbent 

Local Exchange Carriers, CC Docket No. 

01–338 and WC Docket No. 04–313, 

Order on Remand. 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently-approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities, Not-for-profit institutions 

and State, Local or Tribal government. 

Number of Respondents and 

Reponses: 161 respondents; 161 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 8 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: 

Recordkeeping requirement, third party 

disclosure requirement and on occasion 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. 251 of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended. 

Total Annual Burden: 1,288 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Needs and Uses: In the Order on 

Remand, the Commission imposed 

unbundling obligations in a more 

targeted manner where requesting 

carriers have undertaken their own 

facilities-based investments and will be 

using UNEs (unbundled network 

elements) in conjunction with selfprovisioned facilities. The Commission 

also eliminated the subdelegation of 

authority to state commissions adopted 

in the previous order. Prior to the 

issuance of the Order, the Commission 

sought comment on issues relating to 

combinations of UNEs, called 

‘‘enhanced extended links’’ (EELs), in 

order to effectively tailor access to EELs 

to those carriers seeking to provide 

significant local usage to end users. In 

the Order, the Commission adopted 

three specific service eligibility criteria 

for access to EELs in accordance with 

Commission rules. Subsequently, in 

2019 and 2020, the Commission granted 

forbearance from the majority of the 

then-existing UNE loop and transport 

requirements, significantly reducing the 

availability of EELs, though not 

completely eliminating them.
