Accordingly one alternative is a deregulatory paradigm that involves referencing industry standards specifically in our Part 68 rules. Such specific references, however, must be updated through a rulemaking proceeding to reflect a newer version of any given standard. For example, in sections 68.3, 68.215(d)(4) and 68.317(a) of our current rules, we reference specific industry standards rather than including the entire technical description in our rules. Commenters indicate that this procedure, while removing technical criteria from our rules, nevertheless creates a ``bottleneck'' as the referenced standards may become obsolete and the reference must be updated in a rulemaking proceeding.

(Lucent) petitioned the Commission for a waiver of the volume control requirement contained in 47 C.F.R. § 68.6 concerning its Explosive Atmosphere (EA) telephone. This section of the Commission's Rules requires all telephones to have volume control in accordance with the technical provisions in 47 C.F.R. § 68.317 as of January 1, 2000. Lucent states that its EA telephone is compliant with all other relevant portions of 47 C.F.R. Part 68 and that it will not cause harm to the public switched telephone network ("PSTN"). On June 23, 1999, the Commission issued a public notice seeking comments on this petition. No responsive pleadings were filed. For the reasons

For example, we requested comment on whether we should require TCB certification or a DoC for all terminal equipment subject to the hearing aid compatibility and volume control (HAC/VC) provisions of sections 68.316 and 68.317, while permitting less stringent review for other types of equipment such as modems.

  • equipment. Moreover, we believe that commenters' concerns that use of the SDoC process will lead to non-compliant equipment are unfounded. One commenter, ACIL, offered some statistics on initial failure rates by equipment received at unspecified testing laboratories, stating that it queried ``some Part 68 test laboratories'' regarding the percentage of equipment failing to meet the volume control requirements of section 68.317. ACIL reports that the failure rate for products submitted for the first time ranged from 22% to 50%. In addition, ACIL states that a German post-market testing auditor tested electrical (not telecommunications) equipment subject to the new SDoC process in the EU and found a high non-compliance rate. These statistics are not dispositive, nor do they give us reason to

Accordingly one alternative is a deregulatory paradigm that involves referencing industry standards specifically in our Part 68 rules. Such specific references, however, must be updated through a rulemaking proceeding to reflect a newer version of any given standard. For example, in sections 68.3, 68.215(d)(4) and 68.317(a) of our current rules, we reference specific industry standards rather than including the entire technical description in our rules.

This section of the Commission's Rules requires all telephones to have volume control in accordance with the technical provisions in 47 C.F.R. § 68.317 as of January 1, 2000. Lucent states that its EA telephone is compliant with all other relevant portions of 47 C.F.R. Part 68 and that it will not cause harm to the public switched telephone network ("PSTN").
