Abstract
In this Order, the Commission implements section 254(k) by codifying its prohibitions in part 64 of the Commission's rules. The Commission revises Sec. 64.901 to establish a new section (c) to reflect section 254(k) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (1996 Act). Section 254(k) states that ``a telecommunications company may not use services that are not competitive to subsidize services subject to competition.''
