Re: [WISPA] Form 445

2007-02-13 Thread Marlon K. Schafer
The form does not mean that you are compliant.  It's simply to let the FCC 
know where you are at in the process.  Just tell them where you are at in 
getting compliant.  You need to tell them what your plan is.

Ideas about how to fill out the form if you don't know how you would 
comply yet? Does anyone know if this is a required field? Can you just put 
"not sure yet"? Are there industry standards - can we put that we would 
follow the WISPA standard if it is not yet written?


I appreciate the links from people - Cisco - works if you have Cisco 
installed and NetTap, not sure if this works for me or not yet.

And what form is that data going to take?  You don't know.  You are

you don't even KNOW.  THAT is what I said.


The FACT is that the government MUST have a means to gathering 
information for criminal prosecutions.  Even you can't deny that. That 
means (when it comes to Internet traffic) MUST happen at the ISP level. 
WHY?  Because MANY ISPs HIDE THEIR CUSTOMERS.  It happens behind every 
ISP who decides that NAT is "necessary".  Sorry, but that is one thing 
that makes it necessary for them to gather data on YOUR network.  They 
HAVE to be able to gather data on a specific suspect.




THAT is precisely what I said, nothing more, and nothing less.




REALLY?  Maybe when I read these words from YOUR email address, it was a 
government conspiracy that sent them to point the finger at you.  Here 
are SOME of the things you said:



I said that not resisting regulation would kill us.

The process has begun.  We marched in to be fleeced, smiling and 
bleating

softly.

Been nice knowing you folks.


and here

the federal govenrment has just taken wholesale control of the ISP
business.


and here

You can bet that any "industry" standard derived will derived with the 
input from the telecoms to bankrupt as many small ISP's as possible.


I predict that in 2 years there will not be enough WISP's left to fund 
WISPA at all, unless the dues go up on the order 20 to 50 times.



and here

we need to work at launching the largest "industry and public" backlash 
ever, to end this sort of stuff...



Perhaps I'm the only one reading "alarmist" into your words...


Up to this point, the LEA's had to pony up the means of tapping and 
grabbing the data they wanted.  Which, in my view, is fair and 
equitable.  Why should we all pay for and design a network around some 
system few will ever use?





Read the documentation again...I'm not here to educate you, but the fact 
is that your network is NOT going to have to be "designed around" 
anything.



CALEA was NOT written for ISP's or VOIP.  The FCC and DOJ have 
broadened its meaning all on their own.





No, it wasn't written for that purpose.  But, the world is not the same

Anthony,

I hate to burst your bubble.

This is a quote from the following page;
http://www.fcc.gov/calea/

"Common carriers, facilities-based broadband Internet access providers, 
and providers of interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) 
service – all three types of entities are defined to be 
“telecommunications carriers” for purposes of CALEA section 102, 47 
U.S.C. § 1001 – must comply with the CALEA obligations set forth in 
CALEA section 103, 47 U.S.C. § 1002. See CALEA First Report and Order 
(rel. Sept. 23, 2005)."


Following is the link for CALEA First Report and Order;
http://hraunfoss.fcc.gov/edocs_public/attachmatch/FCC-05-153A1.pdf

Page 5 gives the definition of "telecommunications carrier" according to 
CALEA.

The most difficult thing about the CALEA compliance issue is that the

(IMNSHO)
 


to determine exactly how compliance is gonna look.  Here is what IS known:

1. You must be able to send the data (in a yet to be determined
format) via a secure connection to the requesting LEA (law enforcement
agency)

2. The LEA will supply you with a subpoena requesting information on a
specific customer.

3. You must be able to capture (and forward) ALL traffic to and from that
customer.  This means even traffic between that customer and another of
   


your
 


customers, so a sniffer at the border is NOT enough.

4. The "target" cannot know his data is being logged.

I don't think I missed any of the "major points".  I have heard that PCAP
(tcpdump or MT packet sniffer) format is possibly going to be an approved
format, but it CANNOT be a "store and forward".  In other words, it MUST be
streamed to the LEA.

I have heard, but I can't confirm (since, I am only an associate
member) that the principle member's list has better insight into what WISPA
is doing on behalf of the membership.  (This was gleaned from various posts
on the mailing list here, and is just an
assumption.)  Either way, membership is a good idea.  ;-)

If I missed anything, perhaps someone here can point it out.

We have people going to D.C. to meet with the FBI directly to help get

using my network to hurt other people so from that standpoint I think 
there can be positive effects of this.  I do not like to see government 
snooping but I do not know how else they can find and stop criminals who

use the Internet. Any other scenario I can think of seems worse than 
what is being proposed.

That is the 
agenda. If anyone has questions they think are worthy of response from 
the FBI please send them on to this list. George will be going there to 
get us a path for developing a standard by which our fellow WISP 
operators can run their businesss without giving too much thought to 
CALEA. The only people who will go broke because of CALEA will be those 
who refuse to follow the law. For those people I am guessing CALEA will 
be only one factor which leads to their demise.

Well, we are all in the land of unknown right now.  The format of 
the data is yet to be determined.  Let's make a supposition, though. 
If (as I suspect) PCAP is going to be an acceptable standard, then 
MOST wisps already have in place what they will need, except perhaps 
the "mediation box", as it's been called.  PCAP is a data format 
that is created by utilities such as tcpdump and others.  Also, 
let's suppose (because it's not finalized) that streaming is not 
going to be a necessary component of compliance.  With these 2 
suppositions, we have the "ideal" situation.  We can easily gather 
the data using existing tools (least Mikrotik supports what is 
needed, not sure about others).  If an ISP does NOT have a strong 
edge device (such as MT or Imagestream), then they will have to put 
in a hub or switch capable of creating a "mirror" port, that can be 
used to capture the data with a linux server.  Using Mikrotik (for 
example), the data can be streamed to an internal server ("mediation 
server") where it can be stored for LEA retrieval.  For MOST 
subpoenas, this will be the end of the requirement.


SO..for a WISPA built "mediation box", you could simply put together 
a Linux server and a $100 switch.  But, in the end, we have to wait 
to see what format is required before it is possible to truly answer 
this question.

Yeah.  "Could you please quote the constitutional authority for this, please 
cite relevant sections and paragraphs."
  
Like this means anything in this day and age.  You can quote the 
Constitution to a politician and most judges all you want but it will 
not alter reality.  The federal government has well exceeded the rights 
granted it in the Constitution over a hundred years ago and they are not 
going to give them back to the states.  Even if they did, you would see 
most states cede those rights back to the federal government.   Deal 
with it, it is the political reality and so few people care enough it 
isn't going to change.
Oh, and "What do you intend to do to prevent small neighborhood networks, 
informal internet access via voluntary and cooperative systems, free 
networks, and open and free networks from continuing to be non-compliant and 
even unaware of the requirements?"
  
This is an interesting gray area.  In most cases it would not even hit 
the radar until someone is "tapped" and they issue a warrant only to 
find out that it isn't the IP owners traffic.  How the government 
proceeds from there will be interesting.  I would be interested to know

work at launching the largest "industry and public" backlash ever, to end 
this sort of stuff and ensure it NEVER comes back.

Re: [WISPA] Form 445

2007-02-13 Thread Martha Huizenga
Ideas about how to fill out the form if you don't know how you would 
comply yet? Does anyone know if this is a required field? Can you just 
put "not sure yet"? Are there industry standards - can we put that we 
would follow the WISPA standard if it is not yet written?


I appreciate the links from people - Cisco - works if you have Cisco 
installed and NetTap, not sure if this works for me or not yet.

The most difficult thing about the CALEA compliance issue is that the format
of the data has not, yet, been finalized.  This makes it impossible (IMNSHO)
to determine exactly how compliance is gonna look.  Here is what IS known:

1. You must be able to send the data (in a yet to be determined
format) via a secure connection to the requesting LEA (law enforcement
agency)

2. The LEA will supply you with a subpoena requesting information on a
specific customer.

3. You must be able to capture (and forward) ALL traffic to and from that
customer.  This means even traffic between that customer and another of your
customers, so a sniffer at the border is NOT enough.

4. The "target" cannot know his data is being logged.

I don't think I missed any of the "major points".  I have heard that PCAP
(tcpdump or MT packet sniffer) format is possibly going to be an approved
format, but it CANNOT be a "store and forward".  In other words, it MUST be
streamed to the LEA.

I have heard, but I can't confirm (since, I am only an associate
member) that the principle member's list has better insight into what WISPA
is doing on behalf of the membership.  (This was gleaned from various posts
on the mailing list here, and is just an
assumption.)  Either way, membership is a good idea.  ;-)

If I missed anything, perhaps someone here can point it out.

Mark said:

So, you think the big guys aren't going to lobby for things that benefit 
them, while we have no voice or consideration because don't have billions to 
lobby with?  
 

We have people going to D.C. to meet with the FBI directly to help get 
this all worked out. How much more representation can you have? I have 
not heard anything but supportive efforts coming from WISPA and the 
government officials we have spoken to about this. There is no 
conspiracy to do anything but stop the bad guys. I don't want people 
using my network to hurt other people so from that standpoint I think 
there can be positive effects of this.  I do not like to see government 
snooping but I do not know how else they can find and stop criminals who 
use the Internet. Any other scenario I can think of seems worse than 
what is being proposed.


I think we can assume from this point forward that Mark wants nothing to 
do with this effort other than to derail the process if possible. I 
assure you we are trying to do our best to balance the needs of the 
government and the needs of our WISP operators who we serve. That is the 
agenda. If anyone has questions they think are worthy of response from 
the FBI please send them on to this list. George will be going there to 
get us a path for developing a standard by which our fellow WISP 
operators can run their businesss without giving too much thought to 
CALEA. The only people who will go broke because of CALEA will be those 
who refuse to follow the law. For those people I am guessing CALEA will 
be only one factor which leads to their demise.

Question 1. If WISPA develops an industry standard which meets all 
the technical and legal requirements of the law, will law 
enforcement accept our data stream from whatever standard we 
develop?


In addition to this, how about adding the idea of bandwidth cost. 
If we are to be required to stream data, we are doubling the 
utilization for that one customer (plus a little overhead) on our 
upstream pipes.  There are WISPs who use DSL or satellite as their 
internet feed, and these technologies would certainly be impaired by 
adding an upstream feed equal to the combined total of upload and 
download for even one busy customer.  How do we address this issue?


Question 3. Will we have some other standard forced upon us that we 
do not have a part in developing?


Perhaps acceptance of an already developed standard such as PCAP 
would be appropriate.  This is a low cost option that is readily 
accessible to even the smallest ISPs.


Question 4. If a small operator cannot meet the requirements then 
what remedy is available to him in order to not lose his business?


This is, perhaps, the question of the day.

Question 5. Will there be grants available to small operators to 
meet CALEA rules?


If a standard such as PCAP with store and forward is acceptable, 
then this is not going to be needed, as a solution based on this 
would be very inexpensive. It would be less than $1k, including any 
switch upgrades that may be needed.


Question 6. Can we apply for and receive extensions for meeting the 
CALEA requirements? (In case we do not have everything ready by 
May)


Wasn't there something like a $5k filing fee for this?  Seems like I 
read that somewhere...I can't remember.


Please add my thoughts to your Q & A process, George.  And (in case 
it hasn't been said), thanks to you and your team for taking the 
time and expense of going.

I predict that somewhere around 80% of small ISP's won't file.  Many won't
even know they have to.

Just think, EVERY block size network.   If you build out for your

YOU
are now dead.  You just don't know it yet, because you have no idea on earth

The most difficult thing about the CALEA compliance issue is that the format
of the data has not, yet, been finalized.  This makes it impossible (IMNSHO)
to determine exactly how compliance is gonna look.  Here is what IS known:

1. You must be able to send the data (in a yet to be determined
format) via a secure connection to the requesting LEA (law enforcement
agency)

2. The LEA will supply you with a subpoena requesting information on a
specific customer.

3. You must be able to capture (and forward) ALL traffic to and from that
customer.  This means even traffic between that customer and another of your
customers, so a sniffer at the border is NOT enough.

4. The "target" cannot know his data is being logged.

I don't think I missed any of the "major points".  I have heard that PCAP
(tcpdump or MT packet sniffer) format is possibly going to be an approved
format, but it CANNOT be a "store and forward".  In other words, it MUST be
streamed to the LEA.

I have heard, but I can't confirm (since, I am only an associate
member) that the principle member's list has better insight into what WISPA
is doing on behalf of the membership.  (This was gleaned from various posts
on the mailing list here, and is just an
assumption.)  Either way, membership is a good idea.  ;-)

If I missed anything, perhaps someone here can point it out.

I misunderstood this initially also, but the Feds do NOT have access to your
network.  They have to provide you with a subpoena and then you have
(generally) 48 hours to provide them with the traffic stream.  I do agree
that it is an unfunded mandate, but I don't see any way around it.

You do get a chance at recovering some money when you get your first
subpoena...that's why I prefer the TTP plans that are light on front-end and
monthly fees.

WHAT?  You are not correct.  This is the LEA asking for a means to collect
data on suspected criminals.  They will have to have a subpoena to gather
the data, and they do not "automatically" get access to your network data.
You are being alarmist and aren't even informed enough to understand what
CALEA is.

Following your logic, it won't be long when network design, practices, and

Uhmm, Butch...  No, they're not "asking for a means".  They're insisting that 
we build the tap into our network, at our expense, prior to a request ( 
whether we got any requests or not ), to provide them data in a specific 
form. 

THAT is precisely what I said, nothing more, and nothing less.

Well, if you didn't make all that up, then you might have had a point.  I 
said nothing of the sort. 

Up to this point, the LEA's had to pony up the means of tapping and grabbing 
the data they wanted.  Which, in my view, is fair and equitable.  Why should 
we all pay for and design a network around some system few will ever use?  

CALEA was NOT written for ISP's or VOIP.   The FCC and DOJ have broadened its 
meaning all on their own.

Rick,

I've been talking with both the FCC and FBI.  It's up in the air yet, but it

looks like calea compliance won't be that big of a deal.  We'll know much 
more after the Thursday meetings our guys are having.


Here's what I understand so far  I've gotten this from the head of the 
FBI's CALEA division (why more people don't pick up the phone is beyond me).


We have to be able to copy a particular customer's data stream to a local 
machine.  They do NOT want a stream cause they may not be able to receive it


fast enough or data may get lost on the way to them.  The local machine 
needs to have a way to transfer the data to them.  That could be either via 
burning a disk, transfer of the entire machine (likely if they provide the 
machine :-), vpn back to law enforcement or some other mechanism.


At this point there are a couple of issues that I'm not clear on yet.  What 
form does the vpn have to be in.  And it may not have to be a particular 
one.  don't know yet.  And what kind of security on the local cache machine 
will have to be in place?  Will it have to be physically or electronically 
or both, isolated from the rest of the company?


There are, of course, other difficult situations.  I brought up these 
examples and more.  It was agreed that there may not always be good 
resolutions etc.


What happens if someone uses my FREE hotspot in town?  It's a Linksys, I 
have NO way to get any useful data from it.  If I change it out to a more 
powerful machine I incur substantial costs AND I tip off the perp that we've


changed something for some reason.

How about that hotel we sell service to?  They won't have the ability to get

useful data from their Linksys routers anymore than I could.  And I have no 
way of determining who's doing what inside their network.  Again, no good 
answers.


I don't think we'll see perfection any time soon.  But that doesn't mean we 
can't or shouldn't try to do our best.

OK, Don't point me to some confusing URL I don't have time (or

The most difficult thing about the CALEA compliance issue is that 
the format of the data has not, yet, been finalized.  This makes it 
impossible (IMNSHO) to determine exactly how compliance is gonna 
look.  Here is what IS known:


1. You must be able to send the data (in a yet to be determined 
format) via a secure connection to the requesting LEA (law 
enforcement agency)


2. The LEA will supply you with a subpoena requesting information on 
a specific customer.


3. You must be able to capture (and forward) ALL traffic to and from 
that customer.  This means even traffic between that customer and 
another of your customers, so a sniffer at the border is NOT enough.


4. The "target" cannot know his data is being logged.

I don't think I missed any of the "major points".  I have heard that 
PCAP (tcpdump or MT packet sniffer) format is possibly going to be 
an approved format, but it CANNOT be a "store and forward".  In 
other words, it MUST be streamed to the LEA.


I have heard, but I can't confirm (since, I am only an associate 
member) that the principle member's list has better insight into 
what WISPA is doing on behalf of the membership.  (This was gleaned 
from various posts on the mailing list here, and is just an 
assumption.)  Either way, membership is a good idea.  ;-)


If I missed anything, perhaps someone here can point it out.

The part that gets me... You have to state that you're on the way to 
compliance or you have to state what you're going to do. 

And from the comments on this list... I have yet to see anyone who has said 
they actually know either for sure.

And I still want to know what they intend to do with all those little hobby, 
community, free, and other informal networks who FOR SURE are not filing, nor 
even know about it.

What is unreasonable about asking them about all the informal and semi-formal 
and little community, neighborhood, and other hobby networks out there?  

I suspect there's a lot of people who haven't even thought this far, and are 
so buried in 'big business' perspective they're going to be at a loss to be 
able to answer this.

I consider the answer to this VITAL.  Why?  Because that's the key to 
understanding what the ultimate goal is.  If they say "they're not the issue" 
then we REALLY have a big bullseye on our backs, and it's the big guys who 
painted it.  If they intend to shut down or force compliance on every 
network, no matter how formed or how small, or under what auspices it was 
formed, then it's time for some activism to end this - the flow of 
information is not holy ground the government owns. 

This isn't political George.  I don't know just where the line is for you, 
where you suddenly say "man, this is nuts, we shouldn't have to do this!" and 
you say so... But I am dumbfounded that without ANY idea of what impact this 
may have on you and your business and customers and employees PERSONALLY, you 
still are not even considering objecting. 

With the exception of Rick, I have yet to see anyone who seems to even think 
they should ever object.  Instead, we're talking about going, hat in hand, 
saying "tell us what to do". 

People, WHAT ARE WE, men or sheep?  Trust me, EVERY industry talks 
back..objects to excessive regulation.  Many of them spend millions of 
dollars to try to influence Congress to back off.  

And we're afraid to even disagree, even if the cost is unemployment. 

( shakes head )

Sorry guys.  Until I was 25 years old, I followed everything my parents said 
without question.  Then I guess I finally had my teenage rebellion years.  

Maybe they're not over with... but for some reason, I find myself saying GET 
THE BLOODY HECK OUTA MY BUSINESS to the government, and thinking I have not 
only the right, but the OBLIGATION to do this, merely because I am a citizen, 
and we ALL have that obligation to defend ourselves and our own best 
interests from excessive meddling.

I've spent.. well... quite a bit of time watching for the "key" data to show 
up that answers those questions.  

I can't answer them.  I can't find the information, either. 

The best I can find, is that you must provide either (can't tell which ) 
either all the data that goes to and from a specific user... OR a specific 
IP, provided in a specific format (don't know what that format is, can't find 
out) to the requesting LEA within 2 hours if it is an "amber alert" or 2 days 
if any other type of request. 

There is a data format or protocol which is supposed to be used, but I cant' 
find out what it is.  

I did manage to read that there will unlikely be any any open source 
implementations, since the protocol is not free or open and that the license 
is very costly. 

All I can find is that we're going to have to comply with "industry 
standards".  I can't figure out who is creating those standards, or if those 
standards will be open for implementation, or we'll have to pay a license to 
those who created them.

looks like calea compliance won't be that big of a deal.  We'll know much 
more after the Thursday meetings our guys are having.

Here's what I understand so far  I've gotten this from the head of the 
FBI's CALEA division (why more people don't pick up the phone is beyond me).

We have to be able to copy a particular customer's data stream to a local 
machine.  They do NOT want a stream cause they may not be able to receive it

fast enough or data may get lost on the way to them.  The local machine 
needs to have a way to transfer the data to them.  That could be either via 
burning a disk, transfer of the entire machine (likely if they provide the 
machine :-), vpn back to law enforcement or some other mechanism.

At this point there are a couple of issues that I'm not clear on yet.  What 
form does the vpn have to be in.  And it may not have to be a particular 
one.  don't know yet.  And what kind of security on the local cache machine 
will have to be in place?  Will it have to be physically or electronically 
or both, isolated from the rest of the company?

There are, of course, other difficult situations.  I brought up these 
examples and more.  It was agreed that there may not always be good 
resolutions etc.

What happens if someone uses my FREE hotspot in town?  It's a Linksys, I 
have NO way to get any useful data from it.  If I change it out to a more 
powerful machine I incur substantial costs AND I tip off the perp that we've

changed something for some reason.

How about that hotel we sell service to?  They won't have the ability to get

useful data from their Linksys routers anymore than I could.  And I have no 
way of determining who's doing what inside their network.  Again, no good 
answers.

I don't think we'll see perfection any time soon.  But that doesn't mean we 
can't or shouldn't try to do our best.

George, I'm not sure if you got the note yet.  But you guys are going to the 
Hoover building for that meeting!  Into the belly of the beast!  grin


What *I'd* like to see happen is two fold.

A:  What the heck do we really have to do, in plain English please, in order 
to be compliant.
B:  You guys come up with a plan to put together a team to work with law 
enforcement on a WISP CALEA standard.


In a perfect world you'd come back with answers and the basis for the 
standards team to start working toward.  You'd know what kind of people 
should be on the standards team and help put that team together.  Then, by 
May we'll have a standard in place and we can all just say that we're WISPA 
CALEA compliant.


Good luck!

2007-02-12 Thread Mac Dearman
It's going to be to easy Rick. If everyone will hold their horses and just
"trot" for a short time they will get everything lined out. The ability to
stream live data is already in place here and it's cheap. I don't know why
it wouldn't be acceptable as it would be the live data stream they would ask
for. What they do with it is their business, but that's just not a hard deal
either.

 I wish folks wouldn't be alarmists at this point because it does not help
anyone or anything - it only tends to get folks feathers ruffled over
nothing. 

Capturing the data that the FBI (or whoever) would want is a simple simple
thing. It shouldn't cost us over $100.00 to implement and like I aid earlier
- most of us already have a device(s) that can do this.

Here is my thought on the matter: If some sleaze ball was calling my 10 year
old daughter and was on someone's wireless network - I would want that
bustard caught and put in jail - - with or without a subpoena!!

Wouldn't you Mark? Or would you be hollering foul then as well??

What are YOU as a WISP doing to comply ?  

How much is it costing you ?  

What technology ?

How would you provide the "hook" in so the FBI could just
listen in at any time  (is that the way it works ? Or do 
they still need to provide a subpoena...) ?

Federal regulation is the DEATH of small business.  I have no doubt the 
Telcos and Cablecos are no doubt celebrating big time.  What they could not 
do to wipe out competition the federal government does for them.

You actually think that the "big guys" will actually let that happen?  Come 
on.  What are you smoking?  This is thier chance to wipe out all those pesky 
little guys and own it all.  And the FCC and feds will cheer at the "order" 
forced from "chaos".

Yeah.  "Could you please quote the constitutional authority for this, please 
cite relevant sections and paragraphs."

Oh, and "What do you intend to do to prevent small neighborhood networks, 
informal internet access via voluntary and cooperative systems, free 
networks, and open and free networks from continuing to be non-compliant and 
even unaware of the requirements?"

I would like the answer to those on tape and in writing.  And then we need to 
work at launching the largest "industry and public" backlash ever, to end 
this sort of stuff and ensure it NEVER comes back.

I predict that somewhere around 80% of small ISP's won't file.  Many
won't 
even know they have to.  

Just think, EVERY block size network.   If you build out for your 
neighborhood and have 10 neighbors... YOU have to fork out the big
bucks, YOU 
are now dead.  You just don't know it yet, because you have no idea on
earth

You can bet that any "industry" standard derived will derived with the
input 
from the telecoms to bankrupt as many small ISP's as possible.  

I predict that in 2 years there will not be enough WISP's left to fund
WISPA

I don't like filling out paper work either, but it kinda concerns me
that people aren't taking CALEA compliance seriously if they can't
take 10 minutes to fill in their company name, get an FRN number, and
answer whether or not they will be compliant when May rolls around.

Just a silly question, but why is filling out this form such a big
deal for everyone? It's only 10 questions basically asking you if you
will be compliant or not by 5/14/07. Also it has to be signed by an
officer of the company that is being reported for. How can WISPA file
on behalf of these companies?

You would have to take it up with Kris. He knows this stuff better than 
me. That is why I pay him to handle my FCC legal work. I would have made 
the offer sooner had we been in touch sooner. Kris and I have been very 
out of touch with our schedules lately. I am moving my office and Kris 
has been criss-crossing the country a little lately I believe. Time is 
short and I am sorry about that. The filing can be a little late though. 
There is no penalty for this being sent in a day or two late. Kris will 
file this on Wednesday after he gets the list from me tomorrow of who 
all will be part of our group filing. Our filing will state we are all 
working toward an industry agreed compliance plan. It basically let's 
the government know we will meet compliance standards once set.
