ORDER
PER CURIAM

1
Upon consideration of the motion to dismiss, the oppositions thereto, and the reply, it is

2
ORDERED that the motion to dismiss be granted.   We have jurisdiction to review only "final orders" of the Federal Communications Commission.   See 28 U.S.C. § 2342(1);  47 U.S.C. § 402(a).   The Commission's dismissal of petitioner's petition for a declaratory rulemaking to reaffirm the Commission's policy on cellular bundling practices is not final because the Commission has not made a "terminal, complete resolution" of this matter, and the agency's action does not have the legal consequence of a final order.   See Intercity Transportation Co. v. United States, 737 F.2d 103, 106-07 (D.C.Cir.1984).   The petition for declaratory ruling has been made part of the Commission's Notice of Proposed Rule Making and the Commission has indicated its intention to develop a complete record concerning its bundling policies before ruling on the petitioner's request.   See 6 FCC Rcd 1732, 1736 n. 9 (1991).   Because the Commission has not made a final determination regarding petitioner's request, this matter is not ripe for judicial review.

3
The Clerk is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after disposition of any timely petition for rehearing.   See D.C.Cir.Rule 15.
