Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 14 / Thursday, January 22, 2015 / Notices 3233 

Title: Part 61, Tariff Review Plan 

(TRP). 

Form Number: N/A. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit entities. 

Number of Respondents: 2,840 

respondents; 8,554 responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 0.5 

hours to 53 hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion, 

annual, biennial, and one time reporting 

requirements. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. Statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained in 47 U.S.C. Sections 201, 

202, 203, and 251(b)(5) of the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended. 

Total Annual Burden: 121,656 hours. 

Total Annual Cost: No cost. 

Privacy Impact Assessment: No 

impact. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

Respondents are not being asked to 

submit confidential information to the 

Commission. If the Commission 

requests respondents to submit 

information which respondents believe 

are confidential, respondents may 

request confidential treatment of such 

information under 47 CFR 0.459 of the 

Commission’s rules. 

Needs and Uses: On November 18, 

2011, the Commission released the USF/ 

ICC Transformation Order, FCC 11–61 

and the Second Order on 

Reconsideration, FCC 12–47, released 

on April 25, 2012, required incumbent 

and competitive local exchange carriers 

to submit supporting documentation as 

part of their Tariff Review Plans (TRPs). 

Certain local exchange carriers are 

required to submit a biennial or annual 

TRP in partial fulfillment of cost 

support material required by 47 CFR 

part 61. Sections 201, 202, and 203 of 

the Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended, require common carriers to 

establish joint and reasonable charges, 

practices, and regulations for their 

interstate telecommunications services 

provided. For services that are still 

covered under Section 203, tariff 

schedules containing charges, rates, 

rules, and regulations must be filed with 

the Commission. If the FCC takes no 

action within the notice period, then the 

filing becomes effective. The 

Commission is granted broad authority 

to require the submission of data 

showing the value of property used to 

provide the services, some of which are 

automatically required by its rules and 

some of which can be required through 

individual requests. All filings that 

become effective are considered legal 

but only those filed pursuant to Section 

204(a)(3) of the Act are deemed lawful. 

For services that are detariffed, no 

tariffs are filed at the FCC and 

determination of reasonableness and 

any unreasonable discrimination is 

generally addressed through the 

complaint process. Incumbent local 

exchange carriers (ILECs) can make a 

voluntary filing at any time, but are 

required to update rates annually or 

biennially. See 47 CFR Section 69.3. 

Among other reforms, the 

Commission developed the TRP to 

minimize reporting burdens on 

reporting ILECs. TRPs set forth the 

summary material ILECs file to support 

revisions to the rates in their interstate 

access service tariffs. For those services 

still requiring cost support, TRPs assist 

the Commission in determining whether 

ILEC access charges are just and 

reasonable as required under the 

Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended. 

The Commission also minimized 

reporting burdens by developing 

incentive-based regulation (price caps), 

which simplifies the process of 

determining the reasonableness of rates 

and rate structures for ILECs subject to 

price caps. Supporting material 

requirements for price cap ILECs having 

50,000 or fewer access lines do not have 

to file any supporting material unless 

requested to do so. Price cap carriers 

can elect to be subject to Title I versus 

Title II of the Act for certain forms of 

internet access in order to offer their 

internet service on a detariffed basis 

pursuant to private contracts. Rate-ofreturn ILECs can choose to charge from 

tariffed to detariffed for the same 

internet services, but are subject to Title 

II regulation. Through forbearance, the 

Commission has allowed those LECs 

whose petition has been granted to 

choose mandatory detariffing of certain 

broadband and packet services.

information collection requirements. 

Section 37 states that banks should state

overall capital adequacy and to analyze 

how measures of internal capital 

adequacy compare with other capital 

measures (such as regulatory or 

accounting).

Agency Information Collection 

Activities: Proposed Revision of 

Information Collection; National 

Survey of Unbanked and Underbanked 

Households; Comment Request 

AGENCY: Federal Deposit Insurance 

Corporation (FDIC). 

ACTION: Notice and request for comment. 

SUMMARY: The FDIC, as part of its 

continuing effort to reduce paperwork 

and respondent burden and as required 

by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995, invites the general public and 

other Federal agencies to comment on 

the survey collection instrument for its 

fourth National Survey of Unbanked 

and Underbanked Households 

(Household Survey), currently approved 

under OMB Control No. 3064–0167, 

scheduled to be conducted in 

partnership with the U.S. Census 

Bureau as a supplement to its June 2015 

Current Population Survey (CPS). The 

survey seeks to estimate the proportions 

of unbanked and underbanked 

households in the U.S. and to identify 

the factors that inhibit the participation 

of these households in the mainstream 

banking system, and opportunities to 

expand the use of banking services 

among underserved consumers. The 

results of these ongoing surveys will 

help policymakers and bankers 

understand the issues and challenges 

underserved households perceive when 

deciding how and where to conduct 

financial transactions. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before March 23, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Interested parties are 

invited to submit written comments by 

any of the following methods. All
