Abstract: The requirements implement section 706 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, to promote deployment of advanced services without significantly degrading the performance of other services. In CC Docket No. 98-147, the Commission required that, except to the extent a state sets its own standard or a requesting carrier and an incumbent incumbent local exchange carrier (LEC) have agreed to an alternative standard, an incumbent LEC must provide physical collocation, including cageless collocation, no later than 90 calendar days after receiving a collocation application.

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The Commission is reporting adjustments/decreases to this information collection because the number of reporting entities has decreased. Current Commission records indicate that, over time, the number of active incumbent LECs has decreased from approximately 1,178 to approximately 1,168. We assume approximately half of all incumbent LECs may need to respond to this collection (584). This decrease in the number of respondents accounts for a reduction in the total annual responses from 1,178 to 1,168 (-10), and a decrease in the total annual burden hours from 2,356 to 2,336 (-20). There are no program changes to this information collection.
