than 25 employees. The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of 
information unless it displays a currently valid 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No: 3060-0233.
    Title: Part 54, High-Cost Loop Support Reporting to National 
Exchange Carrier Association (NECA).
    Form Number: N/A.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents: 1,095 respondents; 1,515 responses.
    Estimated Time Per Response: 22 hours.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion reporting requirement, annual 
reporting requirement and third party disclosure requirement.
    Obligation to Respond: Required to obtain or retain benefits. 
Statutory authority for information collection is contained in 47 
U.S.C. 151, 154(i), and (j), 221(c) and 410(c).
    Total Annual Burden: 33,330 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: No cost.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: No impact.
    Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: No assurance of 
confidentiality has been given regarding the information.
    Need and Uses: In order to determine which carriers are entitled to 
high-cost loop support, rate-of-return incumbent local exchange 
carriers (LECs) must provide the National Exchange Carrier Association 
(NECA) with the loop cost and loop count data required by 47 CFR 
54.1305 of the Commission's rules for each of its study areas and, if 
applicable, for each wire center (that term is defined in 47 CFR part 
54). The loop cost and loop count information is to be filed annually 
with NECA by July 31st of each year, and may be updated occasionally 
pursuant to 47 CFR 54.1306. Pursuant to section 54.1307, the 
information filed on July 31st of each year will be used to calculate 
universal service support for each study area and is filed by NECA with 
the Commission by October 1 of each year. An incumbent LEC is defined 
as a carrier that meets the definition of ``incumbent local exchange 
carrier'' in 47 CFR 51.5 of the Commission's rules.
    The reporting requirements are necessary to implement the 
congressional mandate for universal service. The requirements are 
necessary to verify that rate-of-return LECs are eligible to receive 
universal service support. Information filed with NECA pursuant to 
section 54.1305 is used to calculate universal service support payments 
to eligible carriers. Without this information, NECA and USAC

[[Page 45976]]

(Universal Service Administration Company) would not be able to 
calculate such payments to eligible carriers.
