The regulations privatize the process by which technical criteria are established for customer premise equipment (CPE or terminal equipment) that are sold for connection to the public switched network, and for the approval of such equipment to demonstrate compliance with the relevant technical criteria.

    DATES:

    Effective May 25, 2001.

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

    The final regulations that are the subject of this correction concern the negotiations between a LEC and a building owner to relocate the telecommunications demarcation point(s) to the minimum point of entry (MPOE). The regulations require that the LEC complete the negotiations within 45 days of the building owner's initial request. This requirement was originally adopted in the Competitive Networks Report and Order 66 FR 2322, 2335). However, it was inadvertently changed in the Part 68 Streamlining Report and Order (66 FR 7579, 7592).

    Need for Correction

    As published, the final regulations contain errors, which may prove to be misleading and are in need of clarification.
