Abstract
In this document, the Commission address the requests to reconsider portions of the Commission's order modifying the Commission's rules for providing high-cost universal service support to rural telephone companies based on the proposals made by the Rural Task Force by amending its rules to provide that the amount of high-cost loop support available to rural carriers in 2002 should be adjusted to account for mid-2001 implementation of the rules adopted in the Rural Task Force Order.
