The Telecommunications Act of 1996 contemplates that discounts on eligible services shall be provided to schools and libraries, and that service providers shall seek reimbursement for the amount of the discounts. FCC Forms 472, 473 and 474 facilitate the reimbursement process by allowing participants to confirm that eligible service providers have actually provided the discounted services to eligible entities.

The Commission is reporting an adjustment to the number of respondents, responses and the total burden hours with this submission. The public burden for the collection contained herein is now 158,000 burden hours, which is a decrease of 10,900 burden hours. For FCC Forms 472 and 474, the adjustment is due to updated information based on actual participation in the E-Rate program. Specifically, for the FCC Form 472, the Commission decreased the number of respondents from 18,000 to 15,000 based on the actual number of billed entity numbers for calendar year 2017. For the FCC Form 474, the Commission increased the number of respondents from 2,200 to 2,600 based on the actual number of service providers filing FCC Forms 474 in calendar year 2017. For the FCC Form 473, the adjustment is due to updated information based on actual participation in the E-Rate program in 2017, which was 4,400 service providers filing the FCC Form 473. These updated figures changed the total annual burden from 168,900 to 158,000 hours.
