Abstract
This document clarifies that non-dominant carriers are required to file applications and obtain Commission approval before consummating a transaction involving an acquisition of corporate control. Connecting carriers, as defined in the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (Act), are not subject to section 214 when engaging in acquisitions of corporate control.
