Synopsis of Order
In this Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, comment is sought on
recommendations of the Joint Conference. The Commission convened the
Joint Conference on August 27, 2002, as a FederalState partnership to
reexamine regulatory accounting requirements, and recommend additions
and modifications thereto. On October 9, 2003, the Joint Conference
submitted the result of a yearlong study of the Commission's
accounting rules and ongoing proceedings related to the Commission's accounting requirements. Here, comment is sought on those
recommendations. Comment also is sought on further delaying the
implementation of four accounting and reporting rule changes, to allow
time for receipt and consideration of comments responding to the Joint
Conference's recommendations with regard to the four rule changes. Federal Communications Commission.

Deputy Secretary.
