The Commission adopted a Further
Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (Notice) on June 11, 2008, proposing
rules to govern providers of three forms of Internet-based
Telecommunications Relay Services (TRS) specifically, Video Relay
Service (VRS), Internet Protocol Relay Service (IP Relay), and
Internet Protocol Captioned Telephone Service (IP CTS) in
supplying numbering and E911 capabilities to their users. In
addition, the Notice proposes rules with respect to consumer
privacy that would govern TRS providers generally. Specifically,
the Notice proposed seven separate information collections or
modifications to existing information collections: (A) Provision of
Registered Location to Non-Default Providers. The Notice proposes
to allow non-default providers access to Registered Location
information for routing emergency calls to the appropriate
emergency services authorities if the caller does not place the
emergency call through the default provider. (B) Inter-Provider
Signaling. The Notice proposes that Internet-based TRS providers
engage in inter-provider signaling and transfer of information for
purposes such as registering end users Internet-based TRS devices,
verifying end users registration, as well as transitioning to
future standards-based signaling and Session Initiation Protocol
(SIP)-based end devices. (can we add a footnote explaining the
term) (C) Device Registration. The Notice proposes to require
device registration, inter alia, so that default Internet-based TRS
providers only accept calls from their own registered
Internet-based TRS users, from the public switched telephone
network (PSTN), or from another Internet-based TRS provider. (D)
Verification of Registration. The Notice proposes that
Internet-based TRS providers implement a closed system requiring
Internet-based TRS providers to validate the registration of users
before completing non-emergency calls to help curb IP Relay fraud.
(E) Slamming. The Notice proposes to adopt rules to protect relay
consumers against unauthorized default provider changes. One way in
which this could be done is to extend to Internet-based TRS
providers existing rules and procedures, set forth in 47 C.F.R.
Subpart K, protecting consumers against unauthorized carrier
changes; among other options is to adopt a parallel set of rules
for submitting or executing a change on behalf of an Internet-based
TRS user in the selection of a default provider, modeled after the
Commissions current slamming regulations. The Notice further
proposes to require Internet-based TRS providers to either: (1)
obtain the Internet-based TRS users written or electronically
signed authorization; or (2) obtain the Internet-based TRS users
electronic authorization. (F) Consumer Privacy. The Notice proposes
to extend to Internet-based TRS providers existing Customer
Proprietary Network Information (CPNI) rules, set forth in 47
C.F.R. Subpart U, to ensure the privacy and security of
Internet-based TRS users call records or other personally
identifiable account or usage information, including their
Registered Location information. It also seeks comment on whether
such rules should apply to all TRS providers. (G) Extending
Information Collections to IP CTS. The Notice proposes to extend
the information collections adopted in the Commissions Order as
well as the proposals for inter-provider signaling, provision of
Registered Location to non-default providers, slamming, and
consumer privacy regulations set forth in the Notice to IP CTS
providers.
The Notice proposes additional
rules, and revises the information collections in 3060-1089, to
enhance the transfer of information among Internet-based TRS
providers as well as enhance the security of the ten-digit
numbering system adopted in the Order. The Notice also proposes
information collections on IP CTS providers, so that users of IP
CTS may benefit from the numbering system adopted in the Order. IP
CTS providers, however, will already collect this information as
they also provider VRS and IP Relay services. The Notice proposes
new information collections to implement the slamming and customer
privacy protections for Internet-based TRS users.
