Danny and Tony, I found the rest of the document, including the section on time stamping. It appears that the main thrust of the document is CDMA2000 and VoIP, specifically packet voice services, although it can be interpreted for other services as well. It looks like the carriers wanted to avoid extra work for packet voice services and omitted timestamping in the current voluntary industry standard. See the fascinating link at http://www.fcc.gov/calea/.
The DoJ and FBI strategy apparently is to request the FCC to promote the DoJ position as a rulemaking issue. That is an interesting strategy, as formerly the carriers operated with a voluntary industry standard. The Feds didn't get what they wanted in the industry standard, so now they want the FCC to be the hammer. The issue on timestamping says nothing about NTP, just the accuarcy requirement of 200 ms and delivery of the intercept within 8 s. It says nothing about UTC or NIST/USNO traceability.
