Abstract: FCC Form 2000 A through G, General Complaint Forms, will allow the FCC to collect detailed information from consumers on the practices of telecommunications companies to assist in resolving informal complaints and to collect data as a part of the investigative work performed by federal and state law enforcement agencies. Form 475-B, Obscenity or Indecency Complaint Form, allows the FCC to collect detailed data from consumers on the practices of programming providers that may air obscene, profane, and/or indecent material that will be used to assist in the resolution of informal complaints and to assess the practices of programmers. FCC Form 501, Slamming Complaint Form, is designed to assist consumers in filing slamming complaints with the Commission. The form is devised to ensure complete and efficient submission of slamming complaints. The form will be available to consumers electronically and in hard copy. The information will be used by the Commission to provide redress to consumers and to act against companies engaged in this illegal practice as soon as possible. FCC Form 1088 A through H, Junk Fax/Telemarketing Form, is designed specifically for complaints that involve (1) junk faxes, (2) telemarketing (including do-not-call violations), and (3) other related issues such as prerecorded messages, automatic telephone dialing systems, and unsolicited commercial email messages to wireless telecommunications devices (cell phones, pagers). On July 19, 2011, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) pre-approved information collection requirements that are contained in FCC 11-84 for the proposed rules to implement the Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation ("CALM") Act. On December 13, 2011, the Commission adopted the requirements as proposed in FCC 11-182. Therefore, this non-substantial change request is being submission to OMB to receive the final approval for the information collection requirements and to activate the final burden hours for the requirements. The updated draft FCC Form 2000G and updated supporting statement have been included in the collection for public viewing and OMB approval.
