SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control No.: 3060–1156. 

Title: 47 CFR 43.62, Annual Reporting 

Requirements for U.S. Providers of 

International Services and Circuits. 

Form No.: N/A. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

Respondents: Business or other forprofit. 

Number of Respondents: 2,328 

respondents; 14,606 responses. 

Estimated Time per Response: 1–150 

hours. 

Frequency of Response: Annual 

reporting requirement. 

Obligation to Respond: Required to 

obtain or retain benefits. The statutory 

authority for this information collection 

is contained under Sections 1, 4(i)–4(j), 

11, 201–205, 211, 214, 219, 220, 303(r), 

309 and 403 of the Communications Act 

of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. 151, 

154(i)–154(j), 161, 201–205, 211, 214, 

219–220, 303(r), 309, 403. 

Total Annual Burden: 14,606 hours. 

Annual Cost Burden: $2,400. 

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No 

impact(s). 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

In general, there is no need for 

confidentiality with this collection of 

information. The Commission, however, 

will allow filing entities to seek 

confidential treatment of their data. 

Needs and Uses: The Federal 

Communications Commission 

(Commission) is requesting that the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) approve a revision of OMB 

Control No. 3060–1156. The purpose of 

the revision is to obtain OMB approval 

of the annual reporting requirements 

stipulated under 47 CFR 43.62 which 

requires that entities providing 

international services file annual circuit 

capacity reports and annual traffic and 

revenue reports, in a format set out in 

a Filing Manual. 

Upon the OMB’s approval of the 

proposed changes in this information 

collection, the Commission plans to 

eliminate two existing information 

collections from the Commission’s 

inventory, OMB Control Number 3060– 

0106 (47 CFR 43.61 annual traffic and 

revenue reports) and OMB Control 

Number 3060–0572 (47 CFR 43.82 

annual circuit-status reports). 

In order for carriers to comply with 

annual reporting requirements 

stipulated in 47 CFR 43.62, the 

Commission is developing a web-based 

system for filers to submit their reports. 

Filers will access the filing system via 

a portal on the FCC Web site, 

www.FCC.gov The software for the webbased system is now under development 

and the Commission is seeking final 

OMB approval for the new requirements 

in 47 CFR 43.62, the new consolidated 

Filing Manual and the electronic filing 

of the data. 

Without this collection of 

information, the Commission would not 

be able to ensure compliance with its 

international rules and policies. 

Furthermore, the Commission would 

not have sufficient information to take 

measures to prevent anticompetitive 

conduct in the provision of 

international communications services. 

The Commission would not have 

adequate information to respond to 

failures in the U.S.-international market. 

The Commission would not be able to 

promote effective competition in the 

global market for communications 

services. The lack of effective 

competition would adversely affect the 

U.S. revenues in the 

telecommunications industry. The 

agency would not be able to comply 

with the international regulations stated 

in the World Trade Organization (WTO) 

Basic Telecom Agreement. Carriers and 

other entities outside the Commission, 

such as other government agencies, 

international organizations, and 

academia, use the information to 

analyze industry trends. Other 

government agencies use the 

information in merger analyses and 

negotiations with foreign countries. If 

the information collection was not 

conducted, carriers, government 

agencies and other entities would not 

have accurate industry data available in 

order to conduct analyses.

Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A. 

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: 

There is no need for confidentiality. 

Needs and Uses: The information 

collection entailed in a Public Safety 

Answering Point (PSAP) request is 

necessary to initiate E911 service, and 

serves as notice to the CMRS provider. 

The notification requirement on PSAPs 

will be used by the carriers to verify that 

wireless E911 calls are referred to 

PSAPs who have the technical 

capability to use the data to the caller’s 

benefit. If the carrier challenges the 

validity of the request, the request will 

be deemed valid if the PSAP making the 

request provides the following 

information: 

A. Cost Recovery. The PSAP must 

demonstrate that a mechanism is in 

place by which the PSAP will recover 

its costs of the facilities and equipment 

necessary to receive and utilize the E911 

data elements; 

B. Necessary Equipment. The PSAP 

must provide evidence that it has 

ordered the equipment necessary to 

receive and utilize the E911 data 

elements; and 

C. Necessary Facilities. The PSAP 

must demonstrate that it has made a 

timely request to the appropriate local 

exchange carrier for the necessary 

trunking and other facilities to enable 

E911 data to be transmitted to the PSAP. 

In the alternative, the PSAP may 

demonstrate that a funding mechanism 

is in place, that it is E911 capable using 

a Non-Call Associated Signaling 

technology, and that it has made a 

timely request to the appropriate LEC 

for the necessary ALI database upgrade.
