Revision of the Commission's Rules Specifying the Portions of the Nation's Local Telephone Networks that Incumbent Local Telephone Companies Must Make Available to Competitors

요약

The Federal Communications Commission published in the Federal Register of January 18, 2000 (65 FR 2542) a report and order and final rule, 47 CFR 51.319, specifying which portions of their telephone networks incumbent local exchange carriers must make available to competitive telecommunications carriers as unbundled network elements. The document, as published, inadvertently removed a portion of 52.319 that the Commission added to the rule previously on January 10, 2000 (65 FR 1331) addressing the obligation of incumbent local exchange carriers to make available the high frequency portion of the local loop as a new network element. The purpose of this correction is to add this portion of the rule back into 47 CFR 51.319.
