SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On April 15, 1999, the Commission adopted an 
order removing and modifying rules that govern the manner in which U.S. 
international telecommunications carriers provide service in 
correspondence with foreign carriers that operate in competitive 
markets, a summary of which was published in the Federal Register. See 
64 FR 34734, June 29, 1999. All of the rules contained information 
collection requirements. We stated that the ``rules contain information 
collections that have not been approved by the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB). The Commission will publish a document in the Federal 
Register announcing the effective date of these rules.'' The 
information collections were approved by OMB on July 29, 1999. See OMB 
Nos. 3060-0454 and 3060-0901. This publication satisfies our statement 
that the Commission would publish a document announcing the effective 
date of the rules.
