                Information Collection Being Reviewed by the Federal
                Communications Commission
                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 of 1995 (PRA), the
                Federal Communications Commission (FCC or Commission) invites the
                general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to
                comment on the following information collections. 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 Office of Management and Budget
                (OMB) 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 OMB control number.
                DATES: Written PRA comments should be submitted on or before June 8,
                2020. 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
                [email protected] and to [email protected].
                FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For additional information about the
                information collection, contact Nicole Ongele, (202) 418-2991.
                SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
                 OMB Control Number: 3060-0400.
                 Title: Part 61, Tariff Review Plan (TRP).
                 Form Number: N/A.
                 Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
                 Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
                 Number of Respondents and Responses: 2,749 respondents; 4,152
                responses.
                 Estimated Time per Response: 0.5-53 hours.
                 Frequency of Response: One-time, on occasion, biennially, and
                annual reporting requirements.
                 Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits.
                Statutory authority for this information collection (IC) is contained
                in section 47 U.S.C. 10(a) of the Communications Act of 1934, as
                amended.
                 Total Annual Burden: 60,722.
                 Total Annual Cost: No cost.
                 Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact(s).
                 Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: Respondents are not being
                asked to submit confidential information to the Commission. If the
                Commission requests respondents to submit information which respondents
                believe are confidential, respondents may request confidential
                treatment of such information under 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission's
                rules.
                 Needs and Uses: The Commission has developed standardized Tariff
                Review Plans (TRPs) that set forth the summary material that incumbent
                LECs (ILECs) file to support revisions to the rates in their interstate
                access service tariffs. The TRPs display basic data on rate development
                in a consistent manner, thereby facilitating review of the ILEC rate
                revisions by the Commission and interested parties. The TRPs have
                served this purpose effectively in past years.
