Abstract: In a May 2013 Memorandum Opinion and Order (FCC 13-69), the Commission acted on a petition filed by US Telecom and granted forbearance relief to the full extent supported by the record. This collection covers conditional forbearance relief granted by the Commission from cost assignment rules, property record rules, ARMIS report 43-01, and structural separation requirements for Independent ILECs. The data, information, and documents acquired through this collection will allow the Commission to meet its statutory requirements while allowing carriers to obtain forbearance relief.
