## Abstract

On February 1, 1996, the Commission adopted a Third Order on Reconsideration in this proceeding denying two petitions for reconsideration filed by US West Communications, Inc. (US West). In its first petition, US West sought reconsideration of the Commission's denial of its petition for stay of the Order requiring LECs to file tariffs governing the provision of billing name and address (BNA) information. The Commission denied this petition as repetitious, because the Commission had addressed all of US West's arguments in a previous Order. In the other petition, US West sought reconsideration of the prohibition against using BNA information for marketing purposes, which the Commission adopted in 1993 to protect end user privacy when local exchange carriers provide BNA information under tariff. US West also claimed that the previous Orders in this proceeding did not explain whether the BNA rules applied to all BNA information, or only to BNA information associated with calling card, third party, and collect calls. The Commission denied this petition to the extent it sought to eliminate the prohibition against using BNA information for marketing purposes, and granted it to the extent it sought clarification of the application of the BNA requirements.
