Pursuant to Section 64.703(a),
operator services providers (OSPs) are required to disclose,
audibly and distinctly to the consumer, at no charge and before
connecting any interstate call, how to obtain rate quotations,
including any applicable surcharges. Section 64.709 codifies the
requirements of OSPs to file informational tariffs with the
Commission. Section 64.710 requires providers of interstate
operator services to inmates at correctional institutions to
identify themselves, audibly and distinctly, to the party to be
billed, among other things.

The Commission has re-evaluated
the assessment of the burdens for this information collection and
determined there has been: (a) an increase in the number of annual
respondents of +788 respondents, from 630 respondents to 1,418
respondents, and an increase in annual hours of +7,661 hours, from
197,362 hours to 205,023 due to the utilization of a more precise
method of calculating the fraction of hours. With this submission,
the Commission really examined and evaluated the numbers that were
accounted for in this supporting statement. Therefore, the
Commission used more concrete and precise numbers based on the
Commission's September 2010 Trends in Telephone Report. The
increase in the annual burden hours is due to the increase in the
number of annual respondents to this information collection. There
are no program changes.
