§ 51.329 Notice of network changes: Methods for providing notice.
(a) In providing the required notice to the public of network changes, an
incumbent LEC may use one of the following methods:
(1) Filing a public notice with the Commission; or
(2) Providing public notice through industry fora, industry publications, or
the carrier's publicly accessible Internet site. If an incumbent LEC uses
any of the methods specified in paragraph (a)(2) of this section, it also
must file a certification with the Commission that includes:
(i) A statement that identifies the proposed changes;
(ii) A statement that public notice has been given in compliance with
§ § 51.325 through 51.335; and
(iii) A statement identifying the location of the change information and
describing how this information can be obtained.
(b) Until the planned change is implemented, an incumbent LEC must keep the
notice available for public inspection, and amend the notice to keep the
information complete, accurate and up-to-date.
(c) Specific filing requirements. Commission filings under this section must
be made as follows:
(1) The public notice or certification must be labeled with one of the
following titles, as appropriate: “Public Notice of Network Change Under
Rule 51.329(a),” “Certification of Public Notice of Network Change Under
Rule 51.329(a),” “Short Term Public Notice Under Rule 51.333(a),” or
“Certification of Short Term Public Notice Under Rule 51.333(a).”
(2) The incumbent LEC's public notice and any associated certifications
shall be filed through the Commission's Electronic Comment Filing System
(ECFS), using the “Submit a Non-Docketed Filing” module. All subsequent
filings responsive to a notice may be filed using the Commission's ECFS
under the docket number set forth in the Commission's public notice for the
proceeding. Subsequent filings responsive to a notice also may be filed by
sending one paper copy of the filing to “Secretary, Federal Communications
Commission, Washington, DC 20554” and one paper copy of the filing to
“Federal Communications Commission, Wireline Competition Bureau, Competition
Policy Division, Washington, DC 20554.” For notices filed using the
Commission's ECFS, the date on which the filing is received by that system
will be considered the official filing date. For notices filed via paper
copy, the date on which the filing is received by the Secretary or the FCC
Mailroom is considered the official filing date. All subsequent filings
responsive to a notice shall refer to the ECFS docket number assigned to the
notice.
