The proceeding shall be treated as a

accordance with the Commission’s ex 

parte rules. Persons making ex parte 

presentations must file a copy of any 

written presentation or a memorandum 

summarizing any oral presentation 

within two business days after the 

presentation (unless a different deadline 

applicable to the Sunshine period 

applies). Persons making oral ex parte 

presentations are reminded that 

memoranda summarizing the 

presentation must (1) list all persons 

attending or otherwise participating in 

the meeting at which the ex parte 

presentation was made, and (2) 

summarize all data presented and 

arguments made during the 

presentation. If the presentation 

consisted in whole or in part of the 

presentation of data or arguments 

already reflected in the presenter’s 

written comments, memoranda or other 

filings in the proceeding, the presenter 

may provide citations to such data or 

arguments in his or her prior comments, 

memoranda, or other filings (specifying 

the relevant page and/or paragraph 

numbers where such data or arguments 

can be found) in lieu of summarizing 

them in the memorandum. Documents 

shown or given to Commission staff 

during ex parte meetings are deemed to 

be written ex parte presentations and 

must be filed consistent with rule 

1.1206(b). In proceedings governed by 

rule 1.49(f) or for which the 

Commission has made available a 

method of electronic filing, written ex 

parte presentations and memoranda 

summarizing oral ex parte 

presentations, and all attachments 

thereto, must be filed through the 

electronic comment filing system 

available for that proceeding, and must 

be filed in their native format (e.g., .doc,

in this proceeding should familiarize 

themselves with the Commission’s ex 

parte rules.

[EB Docket No. 17–245; FCC 17–115] 

Procedural Rules Governing Formal 

Complaint Proceedings NPRM 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed rulemaking. 

SUMMARY: In this document, a Notice of 

Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) proposes 

a uniform set of procedural rules for 

formal complaint proceedings delegated 

to the Enforcement Bureau and 

currently handled by its Market 

Disputes Resolution Division and 

Telecommunications Consumers 

Division. Specifically, the NPRM 

proposes to streamline and consolidate 

the procedural rules governing formal 

complaints filed under Section 208 of 

the Communications Act of 1934, as 

amended (Act); pole attachment 

complaints filed under Section 224 of 

the Act; and formal advanced 

communications services and 

equipment complaints filed under 

Sections 255, 716, and 718 of the Act. 

These separate sets of procedural rules 

are not congruent, and the 

inconsistencies have led to needless 

confusion. 

DATES: Interested persons are invited to 

submit comments on or before October 

26, 2017. Reply comments are due on or 

before November 13, 2017.
