Abstract
This action establishes the procedures the Commission will use in implementing Public Law 105-125 (enacted December 1, 1997), which added subsection (e)(6) to section 214(e) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the Act). New section 214(e)(6) provides for the designation of eligible telecommunications carriers by the Federal Communications Commission (Commission) in certain limited circumstances for common carriers that are not subject to the jurisdiction of a state commission.
