Abstract:
In CC Docket No. 96-187, the Commission adopted measures to streamline tariff filing requirements for local exchange carriers (LECs) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. In order to achieve a strealined and deregulatory environment for local exchanged carrier tariff filings, local exchange carriers are required to file tariffs electronically. Other carriers are permitted to file their tariffs electronically.

Short Statement:
The Commission adjusted the cost burden because the filing fee changed from $695 to $720 per filing. The burden hours have been adjusted due to less respondents filing tariffs. Many LECs have chosen to partipate in group filings for the tariffs. This has drastically reduced the number of respondents for this collection and has also significantly reduced the reporting and recordkeeping cost burdens.

$50,000
