SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission, as part of its 
continuing effort to reduce paperwork burden invites the general public 
and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on the 
following information collection(s), as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, Public Law 104-13. An agency may not 
conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid control number. No person shall be subject to any 
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information subject 
to the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) that does not display a valid 
control number. Comments are requested concerning (a) whether the 
proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper 
performance of the functions of the Commission, including whether the 
information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 
Commission's burden estimate; (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 respondents, including 
the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology.

DATES: Written Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) comments should be 
submitted on or before March 31, 2006. If you anticipate that you will

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control No.: 3060-0763.
    Title: The ARMIS Customer Satisfaction Report.
    Report No.: FCC Report 43-06.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
    Number of Respondents: 7.
    Estimated Time Per Response: 720 hours.
    Frequency of Response: Annual reporting requirement.
    Total Annual Burden: 5,040 hours.
    Total Annual Cost: N/A.
    Privacy Act Impact Assessment: N/A.
    Needs and Uses: The Commission is submitting this information 
collection to OMB as an extension (no change in requirements) in order 
to obtain the full three-year clearance from them. The ARMIS Report 43-
06 is an annual report that captures trends in service quality based on 
the results of customer satisfaction surveys. ARMIS was implemented to 
facilitate the timely and efficient analysis of revenue requirements, 
rates of return and price caps; to provide an improved basis for audits 
or other oversight functions; and to enhance the Commission's ability 
to quantify the effects of alternative policy. The ARMIS Report 43-06 
reflects the results of customer satisfaction surveys conducted by 
individual carriers with residential and business customers. The 
information contained in the ARMIS Report 43-06 provides the necessary 
detail to enable the Commission to fulfill its regulatory 
responsibilities. Automated reporting of these data greatly enhances 
the Commission's ability to process and analyze the extensive amounts 
of data that are needed to administer its rules.

Federal Communications Commission.
Marlene H. Dortch,
Secretary.
