Needs and Uses: The Commission proposes to eliminate thirteen
reporting requirements and to reduce the frequency of six reporting
requirements variously applicable to Regional Bell Operating Companies,
other local telephone companies, record carriers, AT&T, and Sprint. The
requirements identified above are subject to the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. The information received will be used to assist the
Federal Communications Commission in performing its public oversight
duties.
I. Summary and Background
1. As part of the President's Regulatory Reform Initiative, each
federal agency was asked to lessen the regulatory burden on the public
by reducing the amount of information the public must provide each
agency.
2. The Commission conducted a review of all reports filed with the
Common Carrier Bureau, including reports not subject to the Paperwork
Reduction Act. As a result of that review, the Commission identified
reporting requirements that can be eliminated or be reduced in
frequency. The Commission proposed to eliminate or reduce in frequency
the following reports:
II. Elimination of Reports
3. Divestiture Reports: On June 14, 1995, the Bureau issued a
Public Notice (``Common Carrier Bureau Solicits Comments on Elimination
of Divestiture Reports,'' Public Notice CC 95-34, June 14, 1995)
soliciting comments on the need to continue several reports established
at the time of the AT&T divestiture [96 FCC 2d 18 (1983), modified, 98
FCC 2d 141 (1984)], that the Bureau determined no longer met the
intended monitoring requirements. As a result of the Bureau's review of
regulations and reporting requirements and the favorable comments filed
pursuant to the Public Notice, the Commission proposed to eliminate the
following reports:
A. Equal Access Progress Report: This report is submitted semi-
annually by AT&T and Regional Holding Companies under Condition 3, AT&T
Divestiture Order.
B. Construction Budget Summary: Condition 10 of the AT&T
Divestiture Order required AT&T and Regional Holding Companies to
submit an annual financial summary of telecommunications facility
construction activity.
C. National Security and Emergency Preparedness Effectiveness: This
report is submitted annually by AT&T and Bellcore under Condition 12,
AT&T Divestiture Order. It lists activities by the carriers to support
national security.
4. AT&T Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) Installation and
Maintenance Report: This report is submitted quarterly by AT&T pursuant
to Furnishing of Customer Premises Equipment and Enhanced Services by
American Telephone and Telegraph Co. [102 FCC 2d 655, (1985), also 104
FCC 2d 739, (1986)]. The report contains the percentage of lines/
circuits not installed by the relevant due date for telephone company
reasons, as well as the percentage of lines/circuits ordered by
unaffiliated vendors. The original purpose of the report was to protect
competitors by monitoring AT&T's installation and maintenance of lines/
circuits to ensure that it is not discriminating against unaffiliated
CPE vendors. In 1991, the Commission eliminated nondiscrimination
reporting for those AT&T network services subject to maximum
streamlined regulation. In 1993, the Commission added AT&T's 800
services to the list of services subject to streamlined treatment.
Since December 1993, AT&T has only provided installation and
maintenance nondiscrimination reports regarding CPE and enhanced
services for analog private line services. Because customer use of such
services has diminished with the increasing introduction of digital
applications, there has been very little reporting activity since 1993.
Therefore, the Commission proposed to eliminate nondiscrimination
reporting requirements regarding both CPE and enhanced services with
respect to the few AT&T services still subject to them.
5. AT&T Service Quality: Equipment Blockage and Failure Report:
This semi-annual report is submitted by AT&T pursuant to Policies and
Rules Regarding Rates for Dominant Carriers [6 FCC Rcd. 2974, (1991)].
The report's objective was to provide the Commission the means to
monitor and ensure that service quality at equal access exchanges is
comparable to service quality at non-equal access exchanges. Because at
the end of 1994, approximately 98% of the nation's lines had been
converted to equal access (in contrast to 86% in 1989), this report is
no longer relevant for the purposes originally intended. Therefore the
Commission proposed to eliminate it.
6. AT&T Nondiscrimination Report for Enhanced Services Providers:
AT&T submits this report on a quarterly basis pursuant to Amendment of
Section 64.702 of the Commission's Rules and Regulations, (``Third
Computer Inquiry'') [52 FR 20714, June 3, 1987]. In these reports, AT&T
must compare the level of service provided to enhanced service
affiliates with that provided to enhanced service competitors. As
discussed above, following the Commission's orders streamlining the
regulation of AT&T's services, very few AT&T services remain subject to
enhanced services nondiscrimination reporting, and those few are so
rarely used that this reporting requirement was proposed to be
eliminated.
7. BOC Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) Installation and
Maintenance Report; BOC Customer Premises Equipment Affidavits for Non-
Discriminatory Provision of Network Maintenance: The BOC CPE
installation and maintenance report is a quarterly report required by
Furnishing of Customer Premises Equipment by the Bell Operating
Telephone Companies and the Independent Telephone Companies [52 FR
2226, January 21, 1987]. The Report compares the number and/or
percentage of lines/circuits not installed by the BOC by the requested
date for affiliated and unaffiliated CPE vendors, so that the FCC may
monitor whether the BOCs are discriminating
[[Page 10524]]
against unaffiliated CPE vendors with respect to installation and
maintenance. As an alternative to submitting a quarterly CPE
maintenance report described above, a BOC may instead submit an annual
affidavit certifying that it has not discriminated in the provision of
network installation and maintenance. The Commission originally adopted
this alternative maintenance certification scheme in the belief that it
was unlikely that BOCs could or would discriminate based on the
identity of the CPE vendor in providing network maintenance services.
8. In the eight years since the Commission established the
foregoing nondiscrimination reporting and alternative affidavit
requirements, the Commission received no formal complaints from any
party alleging unlawful discrimination by a BOC in the provision of
installation and maintenance services. The Commission proposed the
elimination of these requirements in light of regulatory alternatives
and burdens imposed on carriers and solicited comment on the costs and
benefits of eliminating the foregoing requirements.
9. BOC Sales Agency Program and Vendor Support Program Report: This
report is submitted annually by each BOC pursuant to the BOC CPE Relief
Order [2 FCC Rcd 156]. The report contains information on the Bell
Operating Companies' sales agency programs and vendor sales activity.
The original purpose of the report was to ensure that the BOCs provide
independent CPE vendors with meaningful opportunities to market their
CPE jointly with BOC network services. At the present time, these sales
agency reports are not generally used by independent CPE vendors, and
that, therefore, they may not as a practical matter serve the purposes
for which they were intended. Accordingly, the Commission proposed to
eliminate the requirement to file these reports.
10. Billing and Collection Contracts: This report is submitted by
local exchange carriers (LECs) on an as-needed basis pursuant to the
Common Carrier Bureau's Public Notice released in CC Docket No. 85-88
[2 FCC Rcd 809 (Com. Car. Bur. 1987)]. Each LEC provides a list of all
billing and collection contracts under which it provides such services.
From time to time as necessary, the LEC updates the list on file with
the Commission. As LECs previously enjoyed a virtual monopoly on
certain information necessary for the billing and collection of end-
users, this service was in the past subject to tariff. However, as non-
LECs gained access to such information and the service became more
competitive, the Commission relaxed the tariff requirement and simply
required these LECs to file lists of those contracts. Because such
lists are seldom used by the staff or the public the Commission
proposed to eliminate this reporting requirement entirely.
11. Circuit Report: Section 63.07(b) of the rules requires non-
dominant carriers that construct or acquire initial or additional
circuits to file a report concerning these circuits semi-annually on
February 1 and August 1 of each year. These reports provide information
on interstate communications facilities constructed and operated by
nondominant carriers. This information permits the Commission to
perform a public interest assessment of the facilities investments of
these carriers, as envisioned in its Competitive Carrier Proceeding [45
FR 76148, November 18, 1980]. As a practical matter, it is no longer
necessary to require these reports on a routine basis from all
nondominant carriers. Instead, the Commission can obtain this
information in individual instances when a direct regulatory need for
it arises. Accordingly, the Commission proposed the elimination of the
present requirement that nondominant carriers file semi-annual circuit
reports.
12. Record Carrier Letter: Each record carrier with operating
revenues over $75 million for a calendar year is required, under
Section 43.21(d) of the Commission's Rules, to file a letter showing
selected balance sheet and income items for that year with the Common
Carrier Bureau Chief. The financial statement summary provides an
indication of record carrier business. In the 1950s, 80 percent of
international traffic was handled by record carriers. In 1994 this
report was filed by two carriers representing 2 percent of the market.
For 1995 it is anticipated that only one carrier will file. The
Commission tentatively concluded that this report was no longer needed
and proposed to eliminate it.
13. Report on Inside Wiring Services: This report is submitted by
each local exchange carrier with annual operating revenues of $100
million or more under Section 43.41 of the Commission's Rules. This
rule applies only to the local exchange carrier serving the greatest
number of access lines within the portions of the state that are, or
would be, subject to the state regulation.
14. The report contains copies of any state or local statute,
order, rule, law or other documents that regulate or propose to
regulate local exchange carrier prices for inside wiring services. This
reporting requirement was established to gain information about
regulations at the state level and their potential impact on federal
wiring policy. The Commission sought comment on eliminating this
report.
III. Reduction of Reporting Frequency
15. Armis Service Quality Report 43-05: These reports are submitted
quarterly by every local exchange carrier for which price cap
regulation is mandatory and for every local exchange carrier that
elects to be covered by the price cap rules. This report was
established to enable the Commission to observe the success of
incentive regulation and to become aware of any reduction of service
quality or infrastructure investment. The states have been increasingly
active in monitoring the quality of service. The Commission concluded
that there was no need to require this report on a quarterly basis and
proposed requiring the report to be submitted semi-annually.
16. Form 492: Rate of Return Report: This report is submitted
quarterly by non price cap companies (Non Price Cap LECS) and NECA. The
report is one page in length and contains total revenues, total
expenses and taxes, operating income and the rate base for each
company. While the Commission felt that the data was still needed to
ensure that non price cap companies do not exceed the authorized rate
of return, it determined that this purpose could also be accomplished
by reducing the report's frequency. The Commission proposed requiring
this report annually.
17. Joint Board Monitoring Program--Pooling: This report is
submitted by NECA on a monthly (summary of pool results), and an annual
(long term support) basis under Sections 69.605 and 69.612 of the
Commission's Rules. The report contains NECA pooling data and long-term
support data. It was established to keep track of subsidy flows and
administrative costs of administering the subsidies. These purposes can
still be accomplished by quarterly submissions. The Commission
therefore proposed to reduce the frequency of this report to a
quarterly submission.
18. New Service Tracking Report: This report is submitted quarterly
by LECs subject to price cap regulation, under requirements imposed by
the Commission. These reports are employed to conduct studies to
determine reliability of price cap carrier new service projections. The
Commission determined that while the data was still needed, this
purpose could be accomplished by reducing the
[[Page 10525]]
reporting frequency. Therefore, it proposed reducing the frequency of
this submission to an annual report.
19. Payphone Compensation: This report is required to be submitted
quarterly by AT&T and Sprint under a waiver granted in connection with
CC Docket No. 91-35 [CC Docket No. 91-35, 10 FCC Rcd 1590 (1994); 10
FCC Rcd 5490 (1995)]. The report consists of a brief paragraph
delineating the names and amounts of compensation paid to private
payphone operators for interstate traffic that originated from those
payphones. This requirement was established to monitor pay-phone
compensation paid on a different basis than that provided for in the
Docket. This report will only be needed until the conclusion of the
payphone compensation rulemaking within the next two years and the
burden is minimal. The Commission determined that the frequency of this
report could be reduced and proposed a semi-annual submission.
20. Report of Unsecured Credit to Political Candidates: This report
is submitted semi-annually by all carriers having operating revenues in
excess of $1 million for the preceeding year. It shows, by account, any
amount due and unpaid as of the end of the month prior to the reporting
date for interstate and for communications services rendered by or on
behalf of candidates for Federal office, when such amount results from
the extension of unsecured credit. The reporting requirement was
established pursuant to Section 401 of the Federal Election Campaign
Act of 1971. This report serves as a check on the implied contributions
by carriers to candidates for Federal office. The Commission solicited
comment on whether a reduced frequency could accomplish the same
objective. It proposed to reduce the frequency of this report and
instead require that it be submitted annually if there was a reasonable
basis in the record for concluding that this would sufficiently meet
the purposes of the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971.
IV. Procedural Rules
21. The Commission believed that it would facilitate resolution of
the issues raised in this proceeding to provide that the Chief, Common
Carrier Bureau, acting pursuant to delegated authority, would determine
whether to adopt the proposals set forth in this Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking. It delegated to the Chief of the Common Carrier Bureau the
authority to issue any necessary reports or orders arising from this
rulemaking proceeding. Therefore, in that regard, it waived, for this
proceeding only, Section 0.291(h) of the Commission's Rules, 47 CFR
0.291(h), which prohibits the Chief of the Common Carrier Bureau from
issuing reports or orders arising from a proposed rulemaking.
22. Initial Regulatory Flexibility Analysis. This was not required
as there were no small entities affected by the proposals described in
this document.
23. Ex Parte Rules Non-Restricted Proceeding. This is a non-
restricted notice and comment rulemaking. See 47 CFR 1.399 et seq. Ex
Parte presentations are permitted, except during the Sunshine Agenda
period, provided they are disclosed as provided in Commission rules.
See generally 47 CFR 1.1202, 1.1203, and 1.1206(a).
24. Comment Filing Dates. Pursuant to applicable procedures set
forth in Sections 1.399 and 1.411 et seq. of the Commission's rules, 47
CFR 1.399 and 1.411 et seq., interested parties may file comments with
the Secretary, Federal Communications Commission, Washington, D.C.
20554 on or before April 8, 1996, and reply comments on or before April
23, 1996. To file formally in this proceeding, participants must file
an original and four copies of all comments, reply comments, and
supporting comments. If participants want each Commissioner to receive
a personal copy of their comments, an original plus nine copies must be
filed. Parties should also file one copy of any documents filed in this
docket with the Commission's copy contractor, International
Transcription Services, Room 140, 2100 M Street N.W., Washington, D.C.
20037. Parties should also submit one copy of any documents filed in
this docket with Nasir Khilji, Industry Analysis Division, Common
Carrier Bureau, Room 500F, 2033 M Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20554.
Comments and reply comments will be available for public inspection
during regular business hours in the FCC Reference Center (Room 239) of
the Federal Communications Commission, 1919 M Street, N.W., Washington,
D.C. 20554.
V. Ordering Clauses
25. Accordingly, it is ordered, pursuant to Sections 1, 4(i), 4(j),
201-205, 218, 226, and 303(r) of the Communications Act of 1934, as

a Notice of Proposed Rule Making is issued, proposing the amendment of
various Commission's rules as set forth below.
26. It is further ordered, that the Chief of the Common Carrier
Bureau is delegated authority to issue any necessary reports or orders
arising from this rulemaking proceeding. It is further ordered, that
for this proceeding and for the purposes described above, Section
0.291(h) of the Commission's Rules, 47 CFR 0.291(h), waived.
27. It is further ordered, That the Secretary shall mail a copy of
this Notice of Proposed Rule Making to the Chief Counsel for Advocacy
of the Small Business Administration, in accordance with section 603(a)
