If the applicants wish to submit information which they believe is 
confidential, they may request confidential treatment of such 
information under 47 CFR 0.459 of the Commission's rules.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission asked whether physical collocation 
in remote terminals presents technical or security concerns, and if so, 
whether these concerns warrant modification of its collocation rules. 
The Commission asked whether incumbent LECs should be required to 
provide requesting carriers with demographic and other information 
regarding particular remote terminals similar to the information 
available regarding incumbent LEC central offices. Requesting carriers 
use demographic and other information obtained from incumbent LECs to 
determine whether they wish to collocate at particular remote 
terminals. This proposed information collection in the Second Further 
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, FCC 98-147, will be used by the 
Commission, state commissions, and competitive carriers to facilitate 
the deployment of advanced services and other telecommunications 
services in implementation of section 251(c)(6) of the Communications 
Act of 1934, as amended. The number of respondents, annual responses, 
and annual burden has not changed.

Federal Communications Commission.

Secretary, Office of the Secretary.
