Short Statement: The Commission is reporting adjustments/decreases to this information collection. The total number of respondents/total annual responses decreased from 645 to 161 (-484), and the total annual burden hours for this collection have been reduced significantly from 5,160 to 1,288 (-3,872) due to forbearance granted from the majority of the rules that formed the basis for the collection of information. As noted above, EELs are technically still available in limited areas, but we do not believe that many providers continue to rely on or use them anymore. Given the limited availability of EELs, carriers have far less EELs eligibility criteria to collect and report than we had previously estimated. Based on the now limited availability of EELs, we believe it is reasonable to reduce the total annual burden estimate for this collection by seventy-five percent from the last estimate. There are no program changes.
