The FCC's rules and related
requirements are designed to ensure that the competitive bidding
process for assigning toll free numbers is limited to qualified
applicants, deter possible abuse of the bidding process, and
enhance the use of competitive bidding to assign toll free numbers
in furtherance of the public interest. Applicants will use FCC Form
833 to submit the required disclosures and certifications, and the
information collected on FCC Form 833 will then be reviewed to
determine if an applicant is qualified to bid in toll free number
auctions. A toll free number auction will not be able to occur
without the collection of information on FCC Form 833. Without the
information collected on FCC Form 833, a determination of whether
the applicant is qualified to bid in a toll free auction cannot be
made.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
