Reports of Communications Common Carriers and Certain Affiliates; Filing Requirements for International Circuit Status Reports
type: GovernmentService
description: The Commission adopted a Report and Order that will reduce the regulatory burden on facilities-based international carriers. The Commission's decision will reduce the filing frequency for international circuit status reports from monthly to annually and will require all facilities-based international common carriers to file such reports to assure that the Commission has available industry-wide international circuit use data. This decision also exempts nondominant facilities-based carriers from filing circuit addition reports. The Commission's decision also will reduce the filing frequency for international circuit addition reports for resellers of international private lines from semi-annually to annually. The Commission stated that the information compiled from these reports will provide valuable information to current industry members, potential new entrants into the industry, and the Commission. In addition, the information will allow the Commission to comply with the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 that requires it to collect annual regulatory fees on active equivalent 64 Kilobits per second (Kb/s) international circuits. In its decision, the Commission has: codified in the Commission's Rules requirements for the filing of international circuit status reports; reduced the frequency of filing such reports from monthly to annually; required all facilities-based international common carriers to file such reports; exempted nondominant facilities-based carriers from filing semi-annual circuit addition reports; reduced the frequency of filing by resellers of international private lines of the circuit addition reports from semi-annually to annually; provided for the preparation of a filing manual with reporting instructions; directed a format to be specified for the filing of those reports; and required the filing of such reports on computer diskettes.
