Sec. 54.711  Contributor reporting requirements.

    (a) Contributions shall be calculated and filed in accordance with 
the Universal Service Worksheet. The Universal Service Worksheet sets 
forth information that the contributor must submit to the Administrator 
on a semi-annual basis. The Commission shall announce by Public Notice 
published in

[[Page 96]]

the Federal Register and on its website the manner of payment and dates 
by which payments must be made. An officer of the contributor must 
certify to the truth and accuracy of the Universal Service Worksheet, 
and the Commission or the Administrator may verify any information 
contained in the Universal Service Worksheet at the discretion of the 
Commission. Inaccurate or untruthful information contained in the 
Universal Service Worksheet may lead to prosecution under the criminal 
provisions of Title 18 of the United States Code. The Administrator 
shall advise the Commission of any enforcement issues that arise and 
provide any suggested response.
    (b) The Commission shall have access to all data reported to the 
Administrator, Rural Health Care Corporation, and Schools and Libraries 
Corporation. Contributors may make requests for Commission nondisclosure 
of company-specific information under Sec. 0.459 of this chapter at the 
time that the subject data are submitted to the Administrator. The 
Commission shall make all decisions regarding nondisclosure of company-
specific information. The Administrator, Rural Health Care Corporation, 
and Schools and Libraries Corporation shall keep confidential all data 
obtained from contributors, shall not use such data except for purposes 
of administering the universal service support programs, and shall not 
disclose such data in company-specific form unless directed to do so by 
the Commission.
    (c) The Bureau may waive, reduce, or eliminate contributor reporting 
requirements that prove unnecessary and require additional reporting 
requirements that the Bureau deems necessary to the sound and efficient 
administration of the universal service support mechanisms.
