FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS

COMMISSION

[CC Docket No. 96–45; FCC 00–359]

Federal-State Joint Board on Universal

Service; Petition for Forbearance by

Operator Communications, Inc. d/b/a

Oncor Communications, Inc.

AGENCY: Federal Communications

Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: In this document, the

Commission extends until February 20,

2001 the date on which the petition

requesting forbearance filed on

November 22, 1999 by Operator

Communications, Inc., d/b/a Oncor

Communications, Inc. (‘‘Oncor’’), shall

be deemed granted in the absence of a

Commission decision that the petition

fails to meet the standard for

forbearance under the Act.

DATES: Effective December 11, 2000.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Praveen Goyal, Attorney, Common

Carrier Bureau, Accounting Policy

Division, (202) 418–7400.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a

summary of the Commission’s

document in CC Docket No. 96–45

released on October 12, 2000. The full

text of this document is available for

public inspection during regular

business hours in the FCC Reference

Center, Room CY–A257, 445 Twelfth

Street, SW., Washington, DC, 20554.

I. Introduction

1. In this Order, pursuant to section

10(c) of the Communications Act of

1934, as amended (Act), we extend until

February 20, 2001 the date on which the

petition requesting forbearance filed on

November 22, 1999 by Operator

Communications, Inc., d/b/a Oncor

Communications, Inc. (‘‘Oncor’’), shall

be deemed granted in the absence of a

Commission decision that the petition

fails to meet the standard for

forbearance under section 10(a) of the

Act.

II. Oncor Petition for Forbearance

2. On November 22, 1999, Operator

Communications, Inc., d/b/a Oncor

Communications, Inc. (Oncor), filed a

petition for forbearance from

enforcement of §§ 54.709 and 54.711 of

the Commission’s rules (not published

in the Federal Register). Oncor requests

that, for its end-user

telecommunications revenues subject to

universal service contributions for the

years 1998, 1999, and 2000, Oncor be

assessed universal service contributions

based on its current revenues for those

years rather than revenues from the

prior year.

3. Section 10(c) of the

Communications Act states that a

petition for forbearance shall be deemed

granted if the Commission does not

deny the petition for failure to meet the

requirements for forbearance under

section 10(a) within one year after the

Commission receives it, unless the oneyear period is extended by the

Commission. The Commission may

extend the initial one-year period by an

additional 90 days if the Commission

finds that an extension is necessary to

meet the requirements of section 10(a).

4. Oncor’s petition raises significant

questions regarding whether forbearance

from the enforcement of §§ 54.709 and

54.711 of the Commission’s rules meets

the statutory requirements set forth in

section 10(a). We find that a 90-day

extension is warranted under section 10.

III. Ordering Clauses

5. Pursuant to section 10 of the

Communications Act of 1934, as

amended, 47 U.S.C. 160, that the date

on which the above-captioned request

for forbearance shall be deemed granted

in the absence of a Commission denial

of the request for failure to meet the

statutory standards for forbearance, is

extended to February 20, 2001.
