Provides that if such requirements are not met by a BOC by February 8, 2003, the FCC shall order the BOC to divest itself of its telecommunications network facilities within 180 days.
Requires the FCC to ensure, for an incumbent local exchange carrier, other than a BOC, with more than five percent of the national access lines, that such company's markets are open to competition by completing an investigation within 120 days to determine whether such carrier has fully complied with such competition requirements for all telecommunications. Allows a noncomplying carrier 60 days to achieve such compliance, with penalties for violations after such period.
Allows the FCC to assess forfeiture penalties on a BOC if, at any time after its approval, the FCC determines that such BOC has ceased to meet the open competition requirements.
