This information collection is approved subject to the following term of clearance: 1. OMB recognizes that the revision to this ICR is narrow in scope in order to comply with statutory obligations. This revision is for less than three years, so OMB is allowing the pre-existing terms of clearance to continue. Therefore, in the resubmission of this ICR, the FBI must provide the FCC with justification for the requirement that all carriers maintain copies of the CPNI of all US-based customers, regardless of wheth er they are U.S. domestic customers. Additionally, the FBI should provide specifical information regarding the CPNI content that they would dem to be acceptable for FBI purposes. The FCC shall use this information to identify costs and hour burden for companies to create and store this information and provide an indication as to the number of affected entities that do not retain all of this information as part of their current business practices. Finally, the FCC should explicitly state that release of CPNI to law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, is pursuant to lawful authority (i.e., court order, warrant, or subpoena.)
