The Federal Communications Commission has issued its 2014 Enforcement Advisory reminding telecommunications carriers and interconnected VoIP providers that they must file their annual CPNI certifications by March 1st. The Advisory notes that in prior years many companies failed to file or filed certificates that violated the FCC’s rules in material respects. Accordingly, providers are reminded that failure to comply with the CPNI rules, including the annual certification requirement, may subject them to enforcement action, including monetary forfeitures of up to $160,000 for each violation or each day of a continuing violation, up to a maximum of $1,575,000. Additionally, false statements or misrepresentations to the Commission may be punishable by fine or imprisonment under Title 18 of the U.S. Code.
