Abstract: This collection of information requires respondents to file annual reports with the Commission demonstrating the coverage provided with support from the Mobility Fund for five years after qualifying for support. Documentation prepared for, or in connection with, the award of Mobility Fund Phase I support is to be retained for a period of not less than 10 years after it receives the final disbursement of support. The Commission created new FCC Form 690 to ensure that recipients of Mobility Fund Phase I support are meeting their obligations for receiving support. The FCC Form 690, Annual Report for Mobility Fund Phase I Support, format is being modified as a result of the development of online electronic filings by both the Federal Communications Commission and Universal Service Administrative Company.
