public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment

accuracy of the Commission's burden estimate; ways to enhance the

minimize the burden of the collection of information on the
respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology; and ways to further reduce the

employees.
The FCC may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information

carriers are instructed to submit waiver requests that are specific,
focused and limited in scope, and with a clear path to compliance. A
waiver request must specify the solutions considered and explain why
none could be employed in a way that complies with the Phase II rules.
If deployment must be delayed, the carrier should specify the reason
for the delay and provide a revised schedule.

carriers comply with critical Phase II requirements in an orderly,
timely and comprehensive fashion with no unnecessary delay.
