Just as similar materials filed with the Commission are not routinely available for public inspection, TCBs are obligated to safeguard the confidentiality of information obtained in the course of their certification activities. In its petition, Motorola requests that we clarify Section 2.962(g)(4) of the rules regarding the handling of confidential information by TCBs. Specifically, Motorola is concerned about the use of the term ``trade secrets'' in this section to identify confidential materials. It states that this term as construed by the courts refers to a process that a business does not disclose publicly. Thus, it contends, this wording of the rule provides

Accordingly, we propose to clarify that all test sites, both foreign and domestic, must be reassessed by their Accrediting Body every two years. More frequent re-certification will provide assurances that all laboratories remain in compliance with industry standards and procedures as they continue to evolve. Section 2.962 Requirements for a Telecommunication Certification Body. Section 2.962(e)(1) states that the Commission will designate as a Telecommunications Certification Body any organization that meets the qualification criteria and is accredited by NIST or its recognized accreditor. The rule section does not place requirements on re-accreditation periods. We believe that it is important that Telecommunications Certification Bodies are routinely re-accredited to ensure

  • Accrediting Bodies reassess foreign laboratories only every 7 years. We indicated that it is important that all laboratories, both foreign and domestic, be re-certified on a common interval. Therefore, we proposed to modify Section 2.948 to clarify that all test sites, both foreign and domestic, must be reassessed by their Accrediting Body every two years. We proposed to modify Section 2.962(e)(1) to clarify that every Telecommunications Certification Body must be re-accredited every 2 years for continued accreditation. Globespan Virata, Inc. supports the laboratory re-accreditation proposals. It notes that because equipment technology, test methods, and regulations change frequently, the Commission should have assurances that all testing labs are properly equipped and knowledgeable of current practices.
