SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

    Congress finds the following:
            (1) The central and lower Mississippi Valley region 
        contained the highest population levels and the most complex 
        Native American societies north of Mexico before the arrival of 
        European peoples in the 16th century.
            (2) In addition, the Mississippi Valley has also hosted 
        Spanish, French, English, and ultimately American societies at 
        different times in the last 450 years.
            (3) Blytheville, Arkansas, is centrally located in the 
        Mississippi Valley region.
            (4) Former Eaker Air Force Base, which is located outside 
        of Blytheville, Arkansas, in the central Mississippi Valley 
        region, is the site of 14 archaeological sites associated with 
        Native Americans.
            (5) Because of its value in illustrating and interpreting 
        the heritage of the United States, the largest of these 
        archaeological sites, was recognized by the National Park 
        Service as a National Historic Landmark in 1996.
            (6) Another archaeological site outside of Blytheville, 
        Arkansas, the Chickasawba Mound, was placed on the National 
        Register of Historic Places in 1984 because of its historic and 
        archaeological resources.
            (7) These previous actions by the Department of the 
        Interior recognize that these archaeological sites are likely 
        to benefit, educate, and inspire present and future generations 
        of Americans, but no unified heritage park for the central 
        Mississippi Valley region exists within the National Park 
        Service.
            (8) Blytheville, Arkansas, also possesses many other 
        regionally and nationally significant natural, seismic, 
        cultural, and recreational resources associated with the 
        heritage of the central Mississippi Valley region.
            (9) The sites and resources associated with the heritage of 
        the central Mississippi Valley region require recognition 
        through the establishment of a national historical park for the 
        central Mississippi Valley region as a unit of the National 
        Park System.
            (10) As a result of the closing of Eaker Air Force Base in 
        Blytheville, Arkansas, pursuant to the Defense Base Closure and 
        Realignment Act of 1990, Federal land and facilities are 
        readily available for the establishment of a national 
        historical park for the central Mississippi Valley region to 
        protect the archaeological sites located on the former military 
        installation, as well as to preserve, maintain, and interpret 
        the natural, seismic, cultural, and recreational heritage of 
        the central Mississippi Valley region for the benefit, 
        education, and inspiration of present and future generations of 
        Americans.

[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Facilitating Access to Speedy 
Transmissions for Networks, E-commerce and Telecommunications (FASTNET) 
Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSE.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds the following:
            (1) The Telecommunications Act of 1996 was enacted to 
        foster the rapid deployment of advanced telecommunications and 
        information technologies and services to all Americans by 
        promoting competition and reducing regulation in 
        telecommunications markets nationwide.
            (2) The Telecommunications Act of 1966 specifically 
        recognized the unique abilities and circumstances of local 
        exchange carriers with fewer than two percent of the Nation's 
        subscriber lines installed in the aggregate nationwide.
            (3) Given the markets two percent carriers typically serve, 
        such carriers are uniquely positioned to accelerate the 
        deployment of advanced services and competitive initiatives for 
        the benefit of consumers in less densely populated regions of 
        the Nation.
            (4) Existing regulations are typically tailored to the 
        circumstances of larger carriers and therefore often impose 
        disproportionate burdens on two percent carriers, impeding such 
        carriers' deployment of advanced telecommunications services 
        and competitive initiatives to consumers in less densely 
        populated regions of the Nation.
            (5) Reducing regulatory burdens on two percent carriers 
        will enable such carriers to devote additional resources to the 
        deployment of advanced services and to competitive initiatives 
        to benefit consumers in less densely populated regions of the 
        Nation.
            (6) Reducing regulatory burdens on two percent carriers 
        will increase such carriers' ability to respond to marketplace 
        conditions, allowing them to accelerate deployment of advanced 
        services and competitive initiatives to benefit consumers in 
        less densely populated regions of the Nation.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to accelerate the deployment of advanced services and 
        the development of competition in the telecommunications 
        industry for the benefit of consumers in all regions of the 
        Nation, consistent with the Telecommunications Act of 1996, by 
        reducing regulatory burdens on local exchange carriers with 
        fewer than two percent of the Nation's subscriber lines 
        installed in the aggregate nationwide;
            (2) to improve such carriers' flexibility to undertake such 
        initiatives; and
            (3) to allow such carriers to redirect resources from 
        paying the costs of such regulatory burdens to increasing 
        investment in such initiatives.

SEC. 3. DEFINITION.

    Section 3 of the Communications Act of 1934 (47 U.S.C. 153) is 
amended--
            (1) by redesignating paragraphs (51) and (52) as paragraphs 
        (52) and (53), respectively; and
            (2) by inserting after paragraph (50) the following:
            ``(51) Two percent carrier.--The term `two percent carrier' 
        means an incumbent local exchange carrier within the meaning of 
        section 251(h) whose access lines, when aggregated with the 
        access lines of any local exchange carrier that such incumbent 
        local exchange carrier directly or indirectly controls, is 
        controlled by, or is under common control with, are fewer than 
        two percent of the Nation's subscriber lines installed in the 
        aggregate nationwide.''.

SEC. 4. REGULATORY RELIEF FOR TWO PERCENT CARRIERS.

    Title II of the Communications Act of 1934 is amended by adding at 
the end thereof a new part IV as follows:

    ``(b) Effect of Commission's Failure To Take Into Account 
Differences.--If the Commission adopts a rule that applies to incumbent 
local exchange carriers and fails to separately evaluate the burden

would have on two percent carriers, the Commission shall not enforce 
the rule against two percent carriers unless and until the Commission 
performs such separate evaluation.
    ``(c) Additional Review Not Required.--Nothing in this section

same election for any other study area. Except as permitted by section 
310(f)(3), a two percent carrier's election under this subsection shall

that a telecommunications carrier unaffiliated with such carrier is 
engaged in facilities-based entry within such carrier's service area. A 
two percent carrier subject to rate-of-return regulation with respect

[EX A]: Facilitating Access to Speedy Transmissions for Networks, E-commerce and Telecommunications (FASTNET) Act - Amends the Communications Act of 1934 to define a "two percent carrier" (carrier) as an incumbent local exchange carrier whose access lines, when combined with the access lines of any other carrier that such carrier controls, are fewer than two percent of the subscriber lines installed in the aggregate nationwide.Directs the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), in adopting rules that apply to such carriers, to separately evaluate the burden that any proposed regulatory, compliance, or reporting requirements would have on such carriers. Prohibits the FCC from requiring such carriers to: (1) file cost allocation manuals or Automated Reporting and Management Information Systems reports; or (2) establish or maintain a separate affiliate to provide any common carrier or noncommon carrier services.Limits carrier participation in tariff pools and price cap regulation.Requires the FCC to permit such carriers to introduce new interstate telecommunications services by filing a tariff on one day's notice.Allows such carriers to de-average its interstate switched or special access rates, file tariffs on one day's notice, and file contract-based tariffs for switched or special access services upon certifying that a telecommunications carrier unaffiliated with such carrier is engaged in facilities-based entry within such carrier's service area. Limits FCC carrier merger review authority. Provides time limits for FCC action on petitions for reconsideration or waiver of a rule, policy, or requirement.

[EX A]:
No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act - Prohibits: (1) the expenditure of funds authorized or appropriated by federal law or funds in any trust fund to which funds are authorized or appropriated by federal law for any abortion or for health benefits coverage that includes coverage of abortion; (2) any tax benefits for amounts paid or incurred for an abortion or for a health benefits plan (including premium assistance) that includes coverage of abortion; and (3) the inclusion of abortion in any health care service furnished by a federal health care facility or by any physician or other individual employed by the federal government. Exempts from such prohibitions an abortion if the pregnancy is the result of rape or incest with a minor, or if the woman suffers from a physical disorder, injury, or illness that would, as certified by a physician, place the women in danger of death unless an abortion is performed, including a life-endangering physical condition caused by or arising from the pregnancy itself. Makes such prohibitions applicable to federal funding within the budget of the District of Columbia.

Prohibits federal agencies or programs and states and local governments that receive federal financial assistance from discriminating against any individual or institutional health care entity on the basis that such entity does not provide, pay for, provide coverage of, or refer for abortions. Designates the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to receive, and coordinate the investigation of, discrimination complaints.
