## Abstract

In this Order, the Commission concludes that most of the local exchange carriers failed to demonstrate that the overhead loading levels established in their virtual collocation tariffs are just and reasonable. The Commission, therefore, finds these rates to be unlawful. In order to facilitate efficient entry into the interstate access service market, the Commission prescribes the maximum permissible overhead loading levels for virtual collocation rates. The intended effect of this action is to foster increased competition in the interstate access service market and to benefit consumers through increased efficiency, broader access to services, reduced rates, and more rapid deployment of new technologies.
