In the First Report and Order issued under CC Docket No. 99-273 in 2001, the Commission adopted several of its tentative proposals. The Commission concluded that the local exchange carriers (LECs) must provide competing directory assistance (DA) providers that qualify under section 251 with nondiscriminatory access to the LEC's local directory assistance databases, and must do so at nondiscriminatory and reasonable rates. The Commission determined that LECs are not required to grant competing DA providers nondiscriminatory access to non-local director assistance databases. All of the requirements are implemented under sections 251 and/or 222 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. 

Federal Communications Commission.
