                PLEADING CYCLE ESTABLISHED FOR COMMENTS ON
             PACIFIC BELL'S PETITION FOR TEMPORARY EXTENSION 
               OF WAIVER OF CALLER ID TARIFFING REQUIREMENTS

                           CC Docket No. 90-623 
                            CC Docket No. 88-2

 
                                        Released:  November 7, 1995

     On October 27, 1995, Pacific Bell (Pacific) filed a Petition for Temporary
Extension of Waiver seeking a temporary extension until June 1, 1996 of the waiver of its
obligations under Open Network Architecture (ONA) to tariff interstate and intrastate
caller ID-related services.  Pacific states that the services for which it seeks the waiver
extension are Calling Number Delivery via Individual Calling Line Identification (ICLID)
and Bulk Calling Line Identification (BCLID).  

     Pacific states that on July 31, 1995, Pacific filed a Petition for Temporary
Extension of Waiver, requesting that its existing waiver of the ONA tariffing requirements
be extended until December 1, 1995.  Pacific states that on August 3, 1995, the
Common Carrier Bureau issued an Order extending the waiver until the Bureau takes
action on Pacific's July 31, 1995 Petition for Temporary Extension of Waiver.  Pacific
states that the basis for its July 31, 1995 request was that there were difficulties in
meeting California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) requirements for passing calling
party number (CPN), which Pacific states is necessary before it can offer the ICLID and
BCLID services.  Pacific notes that these difficulties have continued and will prevent it
from being able to pass CPN by December 1, 1995.  Pacific thus requests a temporary
extension of the waiver for tariffing Caller ID ONA services until June 1, 1996, which
Pacific states is when it believes it will meet the CPUC's requirements.
