Abstract: The Commission seeks to revise a current collection necessitated by the expansion of the type of pole attachment complaints that can be filed by Iincumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs), now allowing them to file complaints related to a denial of pole access by utilities. The Commission will use the information collected under this revision to 47 CFR section 1.1424 to hear and resolve pole access complaints brought by ILECs and to determine the merits of the complaints.

Short Statement: The Commission is reporting a program change/increase in the total number of annual responses and annual burden hours in this collection. The total number of annual responses increased from 1,772 to 1,775 (+3 responses), while the total number of annual burden hours increased from 2,629 to 2,941 (+ 312 hours). These increases result from the addition of the types of pole attachment complaints ILECs can file as a result of the rule change adopted pursuant to the 2017 Wireline Infrastructure Order and the estimation that three additional complaints of this type will be filed annually. There are no adjustments to this collection.
