Adopted:  June 25, 1996                 Released: June 26, 1996  


By the Chief, Network Services Division, Common Carrier Bureau:


1.   On August 14, 1995, the Metropolitan Washington Airports
Authority ("Metropolitan") filed a Request for Declaratory Ruling
regarding the demarcation point at Washington Dulles International
Airport ("Dulles"), determinable under Section 68.3(b)(2) of the
Commission's Rules.  The request asks the Commission to resolve a
controversy between Metropolitan and GTE South Incorporated ("GTE")
regarding location of the demarcation point.  GTE  filed an opposition
to Metropolitan's request on September 8, 1996 and responsive
pleadings were filed.

2.   On April 29, 1996, Metropolitan filed a motion to dismiss its
Request for Declaratory Ruling stating that Metropolitan and GTE have
resolved their dispute over the demarcation point at Dulles.  Thus, we
find that the issues raised in the request and related pleadings are now
moot.

3.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that the REQUEST FOR
DECLARATORY RULING filed by Metropolitan Washington Airports
Authority IS DISMISSED AS MOOT.





4.   This action is taken pursuant to authority found in Sections 4(i) and
5(c) of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C.  154(i)
and 155(c), and authority delegated thereunder pursuant to Sections 0.91,
0.204 (a)-(b) and 0.291 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.91,
0.204(a)-(b) and 0.291.
