Section 251(b)(2) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended requires LECs to “provide, to the extent technically feasible, number portability in accordance with requirements prescribed by the Commission.” Through the LNP process, consumers have the ability to retain their phone number when switching telecommunications service providers, enabling them to choose a provider that best suits their needs and enhancing competition. In the Porting Interval Order and Further Notice, the Commission mandated a one business day porting interval for simple wireline-to-wireline and intermodal port requests. The information collected in the standard local service request data fields is necessary to complete simple wireline-to-wireline and intermodal ports within the one business day porting interval mandated by the by the Commission and will be used to comply with Section 251 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

The Commission is reporting program changes/increases to this revised information collection resulting from program changes due to the adoption of certain new or modified rules in the SIM Swap and Port-Out Fraud Order. As discussed in this Supporting Statement, we believe that most respondents have previously developed and currently use a digital internal system to manage and respond to many compliance obligations. Because of this, the burden for many compliance obligations will be limited to new entrants. However, implementation of new obligations in the SIM Swap and Port-Out Fraud Order will require additional hours to design, develop, test, and implement procedures, including employee training. Taken together, these changes have resulted in corresponding increases to the total figures in the total number of responses 10,002,000 to 13,672,050 (+3,670,050) and to the total annual burden hours from 673,410 to 792,235 (+118,825) burden hours. The number of respondents has also decreased from 3,626 to 1,626 (-2,000) in an adjustment. The prior collection inadvertently counted the same respondents multiple times for the collection by adding the respondents for each requirement. However, the respondents are all pulled from the same pool – all carriers required to implement local number portability – and the Commission has adjusted this number accordingly.
