## Abstract

In July 2001, the Commission published three documents asking parties to refresh the record regarding petitions for reconsideration of the Universal Service First Report and Order, Local Competition First Report and Order, and Local Competition Second Report and Order. The Bureau noted that since the release of these orders many of the issues raised in the petitions for reconsideration may have become moot or irrelevant in light of intervening events. Several petitioners have filed withdrawal requests with the Commission because the issues they were seeking in their petitions for reconsideration have become moot or the issues presented have otherwise been addressed since being filed. In this document, the Commission grants the request of several petitioners to withdraw petitions for reconsideration filed in CC Docket Nos. 96-45 and 97-21.
