required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act (PRA) of 1995, 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520. 

An agency 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 

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that 

does not display a valid control number. 

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 estimate; (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. 

DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction 

Act (PRA) comments should be 

submitted on or before March 17, 2009. 

If you anticipate that you will be

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

Paperwork Reduction Act that does not

DATES: Written PRA comments should 

be submitted on or before March 17, 

2009. 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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 3060–0986. 

Title: Competitive Carrier Line Count 

Report, WC Docket No. 05–337, CC 

Docket No. 96–45. 

Form Number(s): FCC Form 525. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Respondents: Business or other for 

profit and not-for-profit institutions. 

Number of Respondents and 

Responses: 2,159 respondents; 5,476 

responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: .5–80 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion, 

quarterly, and annual reporting 

requirements.

obtain or retain benefits. 

Total Annual Burden: 47,393 hours. 

Annual Cost Burden: $1,895,700.00. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

The Commission is not requesting that 

the respondents submit confidential 

information to the FCC. Respondents 

may, however, request confidential 

treatment for information they believe to 

be confidential under 47 CFR Section 

0.459 of the Commission’s rules. 

Needs and Uses: This collection will 

be submitted to OMB after the 60-day 

comment period as a revision to an 

existing collection. In April 2008, the 

Commission adopted an order that 

capped total annual competitive eligible 

telecommunications carrier (ETC) 

universal service high-cost support for 

each state at the level of support that 

competitive ETCs in that state were 

eligible to receive during March 2008 on 

an annualized basis. The Commission 

also adopted two limited exceptions 

from the application of the interim cap. 

First, a competitive ETC will not be 

subject to the interim cap to the extent 

it files cost data demonstrating that its 

costs meet the support threshold in the 

same manner as the incumbent local 

exchange carrier. Second, the 

Commission also created a limited 

exception for competitive ETCs serving 

tribal lands or Alaska Native regions. 

High-Cost Universal Service Support; 

Federal-State Joint Board on Universal 

Service, WC Docket No. 05–337, CC 

Docket No. 96–45, FCC 08–122. The 

Commission will not amend FCC Form 

525 in order to incorporate the 

information requests related to the two 

limited exceptions to the interim cap on 

high-cost support. The Commission has 

reviewed the information collection and 

has revised the estimates that are 

detailed in the supporting statement.
