information collection requirements for

possible 3-year extension under

delegated authority 5 CFR 1320.9,

authority delegated to the Commission

by the Office of Management and

Budget (OMB) on October 6, 1994.

These collections were all previously

approved by OMB and are unchanged.

Public comments are invited on any of

these collections for a period ending

[thirty days from the date of publication

in the Federal Register.] Persons

wishing to comment on these

information collections should contact

Dorothy Conway, Federal

Communications Commission, 1919 M

Street NW Room 242–B, Washington,

DC 20554. You may also send comments

via Internet to DConway@fcc.gov. Upon

approval FCC will forward supporting

material and copies of these collections

to OMB.

Copies of these submissions may be

purchased from the Commission’s copy

contractor, International Transcription

Service, Inc., 2100 M Street, NW, Suite

140, Washington, DC 20037, (202) 857–

Title: Section 68.5 Waivers

(Application Waiver of Hearing Aid

Congress recognized however, that there

may be technological and/or economic

reasons why some new telephones may

not meet the hearing aid compatibility

requirement. Therefore, it provided for

a waiver requirement for new

telephones based on these grounds.

Section 68.5 of the Commission rules

provide the criteria for assess these

waivers. Upon receipt of a waiver

request the Commission will determine

the merits of the requests and whether

the public interest is served by granting

a waiver.

the Commission’s Rules. Each LEC or

group of affiliates subject to the

BILLING CODE 6712–01–F

[CC Docket No. 91–35; DA 95–620]

Request for Additional Comments on

the Costs and Benefits of International

Blocking for Residential Customers;

Pleading Cycle Established

March 24, 1995.

Comments: April 24, 1995.

Reply Comments: May 8, 1995.

The Commission currently has under

consideration in the above-referenced

docket issues concerning the provision

by local exchange carriers (LECs) of a

service that automatically blocks

international calls.1

In the Further Reconsideration and

FNPRM in CC Docket 91–35, the

Commission request comment on

whether it should require LECs to

provide international blocking to

residential customers in order to

prevent toll fraud. Interested parties

commented on this issue, and the LECs

also provided general information above

the costs and difficulties that they

would incur to provide this service to

residential customers. Parties then

commented on the LECs’ cost claims.

Parties have not, however, commented

about any benefits that residential

customers may receive by using

international blocking for purposes

other than toll fraud prevention.

Since this record was established,

there has been a significant increase in

the number of complaints the

Commission has received about

information services provided through

international toll calls. Such calls are

directly dialed by domestic telephone

subscribers to information providers

located in foreign countries who offer

adult-oriented information services.

These services arose after the

Commission adopted its ‘‘pay-per-call’’

rules in 1991 governing 900 and other

information services.2 The use of

international calls to provide domestic

information services evades important

consumer safeguards in our ‘‘pay-percall’’ and other rules. Such safeguards

include, for example, the requirement

that LECs offer a service that blocks

these calls and that they identify the

calls separately on subscribers’ bills.

Moreover, the Federal Trade

Commission’s ‘‘pay-per-call’’ rules

require information providers to include

a preamble explaining the cost of the

call and to allow the caller to hand up

before charges commence. See 16 C.F.R.

§ § 308.5 (a) and (b).

The Commission hereby asks for

comments on whether, and in what

manner, residential customers would

benefit from having the capability to

block international calls. In particular,

we request comments on whether

residential customers would benefit

from being able to block international

calls in order to limit access to

information services. We also solicit

comments from the LECs on the costs

that the LECs would incur to provide

international blocking capability to
