  §  54.708   De minimis exemption.

   If a contributor's contribution to universal service in any given year
   is less than $10,000 that contributor will not be required to submit a
   contribution or Telecommunications Reporting Worksheet for that year
   unless it is required to do so to by our rules governing
   Telecommunications Relay Service (47 CFR 64.601 et seq. of this
   chapter), numbering administration (47 CFR 52.1 et seq. of this
   chapter), or shared costs of local number portability (47 CFR 52.21 et
   seq. of this chapter). The foregoing notwithstanding, all
   interconnected VoIP providers, including those whose contributions
   would be de minimis , must file the Telecommunications Reporting
   Worksheet. If a contributor improperly claims exemption from the
   contribution requirement, it will subject to the criminal provisions of
   sections 220(d) and (e) of the Act regarding willful false submissions
   and will be required to pay the amounts withheld plus interest.
