(d) Publication of the Schedules. The Office of Economics and Analytics, in coordination with the Licensing Bureaus and Offices, shall publish the Schedules on the Commission's website, and maintain and update the Schedules in accordance with paragraph (e)(2) of this section.

(e) Updates to the Schedules. (1) A Licensing Bureau or Office may, upon petition or its own motion, conduct a notice-and-comment rulemaking to modify one or more Schedules as it pertains to a Covered Authorization over which the Commission has delegated to the Licensing Bureau or Office appropriate authority.

(2) The Licensing Bureau or Office shall adopt such modification(s) upon determination that such a revision is necessary or appropriate based on an analysis that weighs the following criteria:

(i) National security risk, taking into account:

(A) Type and size of Regulatee;

(B) Applicable communications sector and supply chain dependencies;

(C) Nature and type of underlying infrastructure;

(D) Possibility and probability of Foreign Adversary Control, as defined in § 1.80001(e); and

(E) Existence of risk-mitigating Commission regulations in this part;

(ii) Administrability, taking into account:

(A) Whether the modification(s) would simplify or complicate existing compliance processes for both the Commission and Regulatees; and

(B) Feasibility of agency review and enforcement;

(iii) Burden on Regulatee, taking into account:

(A) Existence of substantially duplicative reporting requirements;

(B) Whether the burden would fall disproportionately on smaller entities; and

(C) Whether the license, lease, authorization, permit, grant, or other Commission-granted approval is similarly situated to another Covered Authorization and thus should be treated similarly; and

(iv) Other criteria deemed relevant by the Licensing Bureau or Office, such as whether the attestation requirement for the Covered Authorization remains necessary in light of technological or industry developments.

(3) The Licensing Bureaus and Offices shall provide written notice to announce a Schedule modification, including a filing deadline for new attestations required by § 1.80003, where applicable, that is no earlier than 30 days after the effective date of the public notice.
