[OMB 3060-0790, 3060-0813]


Information Collections Being Reviewed by the Federal 
Communications Commission Under Delegated Authority

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork burdens, 
and as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the 
Federal Communications Commission (FCC or the Commission) invites the 
general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to 
comment on the following information collection. Comments are requested 
concerning: 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; the 
accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to enhance the 
quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 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; and ways to further reduce the 
information collection burden on small business concerns with fewer 
than 25 employees. The FCC 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 PRA that does not display a 
valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number.

DATES: Written PRA comments should be submitted on or before January 
22, 2018. 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 advise the contact listed below as soon as possible.

ADDRESSES: Direct all PRA comments to Nicole Ongele, FCC, via email

    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents and Responses: 200 respondents; 1,200 
responses.
    Estimated Time per Response: 1 hour.
    Frequency of Response: Recordkeeping requirement and third party 
disclosure requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Mandatory. Providers of wireline 
telecommunications services that willfully or repeatedly fail to comply

authority for this collection of information is contained in 47 U.S.C. 
151, 154, 201-205, 218, 220 and 405 of the Communications Act of 1934,

    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The Commission is not

    Needs and Uses: Section 68.110(c) requires that any available 
technical information concerning carrier-installed wiring on the 
customer's side of the demarcation point, including copies of existing 
schematic diagrams and service records, shall be provided by the 
telephone company upon request of the building owner or agent thereof. 
The

[[Page 55364]]

provider of wireline telecommunications services may charge the 
building owner a reasonable fee for this service, which shall not 
exceed the cost involved in locating and copying the documents. In the 
alternative, the provider may make these documents available for review 
and copying by the building owner or his agent. In this case, the 
wireline telecommunications carrier may charge a reasonable fee, which 
shall not exceed the cost involved in making the documents available, 
and may also require the building owner or his agent to pay a deposit 
to guarantee the documents' return. The information is needed so that 
building owners may choose to contract with an installer of their 
choice on inside wiring maintenance and installation services to modify 
existing wiring or assist with the installation of additional inside 
wiring.

    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.
