SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork burdens, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), the FCC invited the general public and

proper performance of the functions of the Commission, including
whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy
of the Commission's burden estimates; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information collected; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of information on the

Paperwork Relief Act of 2002, Public Law 107-198, see 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(4), the FCC seeks specific comment on how it might ``further
reduce the information collection burden for small business concerns
with fewer than 25 employees.''

Total Annual Burden: 20,503 hours.

Nature and Extent of Confidentiality: The Commission will consider
the potential confidentiality of any information submitted,
particularly where public release of such information could raise
security concerns (e.g., granular location information). Respondents
may request materials or information submitted to the Commission or to
the Administrator be withheld from public inspection under 47 CFR 0.459
of the Commission's rules.
Needs and Uses: The Pallone-Thune Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal
Enforcement and Deterrence (TRACED) Act directs the Commission to
require, no later than 18 months from enactment, all voice service
providers to implement STIR/SHAKEN caller ID authentication technology
in the internet protocol (IP) portions of their networks and implement
an effective caller ID authentication framework in the non-IP portions
of their networks. Among other provisions, the TRACED Act also directs
the Commission to create extension mechanisms for voice service
providers. On September 29, 2020, the Commission adopted its Call
Authentication Trust Anchor Second Report and Order. See Call
Authentication Trust Anchor, WC Docket No. 17-97, Second Report and
Order, 36 FCC Rcd 1859 (adopted Sept. 29, 2020). The Second Report and
Order implemented section 4(b)(1)(B) of the TRACED Act, in part, by
requiring a voice service provider maintain and be ready to provide the
Commission upon request with documented proof that it is participating,
either on its own or through a representative, including third party
representatives, as a member of a working group, industry standards
group, or consortium that is working to develop a non-internet Protocol
caller identification authentication solution, or actively testing such
a solution. The Second Report and Order also implemented the extension
mechanisms in section 4(b)(5) by, in part, requiring voice service
providers to certify that they have either implemented STIR/SHAKEN or a
robocall mitigation program in the Robocall Mitigation Database. On May
19, 2022, the Commission adopted similar obligations for gateway
providers. See Advanced Methods to Target and Eliminate Unlawful
Robocalls, Call Authentication Trust Anchor, CG Docket No. 17-59, WC
Docket No. 17-97, Sixth Report and Order et al., FCC 22-37 (adopted May
19, 2022). Specifically, like voice service providers, gateway
providers were required to maintain and be ready to provide the
Commission upon request with documented proof that they are
participating, either on their own or through a representative,
including third party representatives, as a member of a working group,
industry standards group, or consortium that is working to develop a
non-internet Protocol caller identification authentication solution, or
actively testing such a solution. Gateway providers were also required
to implement both STIR/SHAKEN on the IP portions of their networks as
well as a robocall mitigation program. They must also certify to their
implementation and file a robocall mitigation plan in the Robocall
Mitigation Database.
