Abstract: On April 6, 2011, in document FCC 11-54, the Commission released an Order adopting final rules – containing several information requirements -- designed to eliminate fraud and abuse in the provision of VRS, and to ensure the sustainability and integrity of the TRS program and the TRS Fund. The Commission is submitting this change request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval because we are making de minimis, non-substantive, clarifying changes to the August 2011 supporting statement to reflect the changes noted in the non-substantive change request, which themselves are not changes to the substance of the rule.
