On October 8, 2004, the Commission adopted an order granting in part and denying in part a petition for forbearance filed by Core Communications, Inc. (Core) regarding application of the Commission's ISP Remand Order (Core Forbearance Order). Two parties, SBC Communications Inc. (SBC) and Qwest Corporation (Qwest), filed petitions for reconsideration within the 30-day period established pursuant to § 1.429 of the Commission's rules. SBC filed its petition for reconsideration on November 17, 2004, and SBC's successor company, AT&T, withdrew that petition on July 18, 2006. Qwest filed a conditional petition for reconsideration on November 10, 2004 and withdrew its petition on January 23, 2007. There are no pending petitions for reconsideration of the Core Forbearance Order. Therefore, the proceeding will be terminated effective 30 days after publication of this Public Notice in the Federal Register, unless the Wireline Competition Bureau receives an opposition to the termination before that date.

Federal Communications Commission.

Chief, Wireline Competition Bureau.
