FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION

[CC Docket No. 80-286; DA 01-1496]


Streamlined ARMIS 43-04 (Jurisdictional Separations) Report

AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.

ACTION: Notice; comments requested.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In this document the Commission is seeking comment on 
streamlining ARMIS 43-04 Report. The Commission directed the Common 
Carrier Bureau to seek comment on the content of a streamlined 
Separations Report (ARMIS 43-04). The proposed ARMIS Report 43-04 would 
reduce the total number of pages in the report from 63 to seven pages.

DATES: Written comments by the public are due on or before July 20, 
2001, reply comments are due on or before August 6, 2001.

ADDRESSES: Federal Communications Commission, 445-12th Street, SW, TW-
A325, Washington, DC 20554.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Andrew Mulitz, Accounting Safeguards 
Division, Common Carrier Bureau, at (202) 418-0827.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 22, 2001, the Commission adopted the 
recommendation of the Federal-State Joint Board to impose an interim 
freeze of certain jurisdictional cost categories and allocation 
factors. Specifically, the Commission adopted a freeze of all 
separations category relationships and allocation factors for price cap 
companies, and a freeze of all allocation factors for rate-of-return 
carriers. The Commission further concluded, however, that rate-of-
return carriers shall also have a one-time option to freeze their 
category relationships if they determine that doing so is in their best 
interests based upon their individual investment patterns or plans. The 
Commission concluded that it could streamline its current separations 
reporting requirements, while receiving sufficient information to 
evaluate the freeze and consider further separations reform. The 
Commission directed the Common Carrier Bureau to seek comment on the 
content of a streamlined Separations Report (ARMIS 43-04). The proposed 
ARMIS Report 43-04 would reduce the total number of pages in the report 
from 63 to seven pages. We hereby seek comment on the attached proposed 
streamlined ARMIS Report 43-04.
    Comments are due on the attached proposal insert date 20 days after 
date of publication in the Federal Register. Reply comments are due 
insert date 35 days after date of publication in the Federal Register. 
Comments may be filed using the Commission's Electronic Comment Filing 
System (ECFS) or by filing paper copies.
    Comments filed through the ECFS can be sent as an electronic file 
via the Internet to http://www.fcc.gov/e-file/ecfs.html>. Generally, 
only one copy of an electronic submission must be filed. If multiple 
docket or rulemaking numbers appear in the caption of this proceeding, 
however, commenters must transmit one electronic copy of the comments 
to each docket or rulemaking number referenced in the caption. In 
completing the transmittal screen, commenters should include their full 
name, Postal Service mailing address, and the applicable docket or 
rulemaking number. Parties may also submit an electronic comment by 
Internet e-mail. To get filing instructions for e-mail comments, 
commenters should send an e-mail to [email protected], and should include 
the following words in the body of the message, ``get form your e-mail 
address.'' A sample form and directions will be sent in reply.
    Parties who choose to file by paper must file an original and four 
copies of each filing. If more than one docket or rulemaking number 
appear in the caption of this proceeding, commenters must submit two 
additional copies for each additional docket or rulemaking number. All 
filings must be sent to the Commission's Secretary, Magalie Roman 
Salas, Office of the Secretary, Federal Communications Commission, 445 
12th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20554.
    Parties who choose to file by paper should also submit their

Creech, Accounting Safeguards Division, Room 6 C-317, 445 12th Street, 
SW., Washington, DC 20554. Such a submission should be on a 3.5-inch 
diskette formatted in an IBM compatible format using Word or compatible 
software. The diskette should be accompanied by a cover letter and 
should be submitted in ``read only'' mode. The diskette should be 
clearly labeled with the commenter's name, proceeding (including the 
docket number, in this case CC Docket No. 80-286, type of pleading 
(comment or reply comment), date of submission, and the name of the 
electronic file on the diskette. The label should also include the 
following phrase ``Disk Copy--Not an Original.'' Each diskette should 
contain only one party's pleadings, preferably in a single electronic 
file. In addition, commenters must send diskette copies to the 
Commission's copy contractor, International Transcription Service, 
Inc., 1231 20th Street, NW., Washington, DC 20037.
