SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of 

its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork burdens, as required by the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the FCC invited 

the general public and other Federal 

Agencies to take this opportunity to 

comment on the following information 

collection. Comments are requested 

concerning: (a) 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; (b) the accuracy of the 

Commission’s burden estimates; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information collected; and 

(d) 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. 

Pursuant to the Small Business 

Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public 

Law 107–198, see 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(4), 

the FCC seeks specific comment on how 

it might ‘‘further reduce the information 

collection burden for small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 

employees.’’ 

OMB Control Number: 3060–1307. 

Title: Performance Evaluation of 

Numbering Administration Vendor(s). 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently information collection. 

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

and State, Local and Tribal 

governments. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 6,237 respondents and 6,237 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 0.25 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: Annual 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Voluntary. 

Statutory authority for this information 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. 251(e)(1). 

Total Annual Burden: 1,561 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Needs and Uses: The Commission is 

requesting Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) approval this revised 

information collection. This collection 

of information is an annual performance 

satisfaction survey of its vendor(s) 

acting as administrators for various 

telephone number management 

functions. These functions may be 

performed by one or multiple vendors 

under one or multiple contracts. The 

vendor(s) act pursuant to their 

contract(s) with the Federal 

Communications Commission (FCC) 

and the FCC’s numbering rules. See 47 

CFR 52.1 et seq. 

The survey will be designed and 

administered by the Numbering 

Administration Oversight Working 

Group (NAOWG) of the North American 

Numbering Council (NANC). The NANC 

is a Federal Advisory Committee 

established under the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act. The NANC advises the 

FCC and makes recommendations, 

reached through consensus, that foster 

efficient and impartial number 

administration. The NANC is composed 

of representatives of 

telecommunications carriers, regulators, 

cable providers, Voice Over Internet 

Protocol (VoIP) providers, industry 

associations, vendors, and consumer 

advocates. Working groups, including 

the NAOWG, made up of industry 

experts, have been established by the 

NANC to assist in its efforts. The NANC 

charter can be found at https://

www.fcc.gov/files/charter-northamerican-numbering-council. 

The relevant contract(s) require that 

the Commission and/or its designee 

shall develop and conduct a 

performance survey for each 

administrator. The results of this 

consumer satisfaction survey will 

provide the FCC with indicators on how 

well the vendor(s) are acting as the 

North American Numbering Program 

Administrator (NANPA), Pooling 

Administrator (PA), Routing Number 

Administrator (RNA) and Reassigned 

Numbering Database Administrator 

(RNDA) is meeting its contractual 

obligations and accomplishing its 

mission as the NANPA/PA/RNA/RNDA.

Appropriations Act, 2021, Public Law

(New and Emerging Technologies 911 

Improvement Act of 2008, Public Law 

110–283, 122 Stat. 2620 (2008) (NET 

911 Act), as amended by the 

Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, 

Public Law 116–260, Division FF, Title 

IX, Section 902, Don’t Break Up the TBand Act of 2020 (section 902), to 

submit an annual ‘‘Fee Accountability 

Report’’ to the Committee on Commerce, 

Science, and Transportation of the 

Senate and the Committee on Energy 

and Commerce of the House of 

Representatives ‘‘detailing the status in 

each State of the collection and 

distribution of [911 fees or charges], and 

including findings on the amount of 

revenues obligated or expended by each 

State or political subdivision thereof for 

any purpose or function other than the 

purposes and functions designated in 

the final rules issued under paragraph 

(3) as purposes and functions for which 

the obligation or expenditure of any 

such fees or charges is acceptable.’’ 47

amended. 

Description of Information Collection: 

The Commission will collect 

information for the annual preparation 

of the Fee Accountability Report via a 

web-based survey that appropriate state 

officials (e.g., state 911 administrators 

and budget officials) will be able to 

access to submit data pertaining to the 

collection and distribution of fees or 

charges for the support or 

implementation of 911 or enhanced 911 

services, including data regarding 

whether their respective state collects 

and distributes such fees or charges, as 

well as the nature (e.g., amount and 

method of assessment or collection) and 

the amount of revenues obligated or 

expended for any purpose or function 

other than the purposes and functions 

designated as acceptable in the 

Commission’s final rules. Consistent 

with 47 U.S.C. 615a–1(f)(3)(D)(iii), the 

Commission will request that state 

officials report this information with 

respect to 911 fees or charges within 

their state, including any political 

subdivision, Indian tribe, and/or village 

or regional corporation serving any 

region established pursuant to the 

Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act 

within their state boundaries. 47 U.S.C. 

615a–1(f)(3)(D)(iii). In addition, 

consistent with the definition of ‘‘State’’ 

set out in 47 U.S.C. 615b, the
