                PLEADING CYCLE ESTABLISHED FOR COMMENTS ON
            NYNEX'S COMPARABLY EFFICIENT INTERCONNECTION PLANS

                                CCBPol 95-3
 
                                                            Released:  August 8, 1995

       On July 28, 1995, NYNEX Telephone Companies (NYNEX) filed three Comparably
Efficient Interconnection (CEI) Plans for new enhanced services:  Audiotext Information
Services (AIS); Customized Announcement Services (CAS); and Remote Data Processing
Services (RDP). 

       NYNEX states that AIS are computer-based audiotext information services that may be
provided as stand-alone audiotext databases or audiotext services gateways.  NYNEX states that
CAS are computer-based audiotext services that enable subscribers to create, store, access, and
retrieve customized announcements.  NYNEX states that RDP are computer-based applications
which require a remote data processing capability and the development of application specific
software. RDP will entail designing and establishing specific remote data processing applications
for specific customers or markets where a remote data processing capability is needed in order
to provide the service.  

       NYNEX states that AIS, CAS, and RDP use only tariffed network services available to
other enhanced service providers at the same tariffed rates, and on the same terms and
conditions. 
       Interested parties may file comments on the CEI Plans by August 21, 1995, and reply
comments by August 28, 1995, with the Secretary, FCC, 1919 M Street, N.W., Washington,
D.C. 20554.  A copy should also be sent to Janice M. Myles, Common Carrier Bureau, FCC,

D.C. 20037.  Parties filing comments in this non-docketed proceeding should include the Policy
