Local Competition Survey

On May 8, 1998, the Common Carrier Bureau issued a Public Notice to solicit comment on how the Commission can collect sufficient information about local competition to achieve the regulatory flexibility, pro-competition, and universal service objectives of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (1996 Act) while minimizing filing burdens on respondents. The Public Notice seeks comment on what information should be collected as well as on such issues as whether periodic data collection should be mandatory and which telecommunications carriers should provide information.
