The Office of Economics and Analytics (OEA) has announced that it will inform the National Archives that it may publicly release certain Automated Reporting Management Information System (ARMIS) reports in its possession unless the entity that submitted such reports: (1) concurrently submitted a request for confidential treatment; and (2) notifies OEA no later than April 15, 2024, that it continues to request confidential treatment. This notification should attach the prior request for confidential treatment and must provide specific reasons why confidential treatment is still appropriate.
The FCC initially established ARMIS to collect financial and operating data from certain carriers to administer the Commission’s accounting, joint cost, separations, rate base disallowance, and access charge rules.
