Adopted: March 6, 1997                   Released: March 6, 1997

By the Chief, Competitive Pricing Division, Common Carrier Bureau:

     1.   On January 24, 1997, Pacific Bell filed Transmittal No. 1906 to revise its Tariff
F.C.C. No. 128.  Transmittal No. 1906, which is scheduled to become effective on March 10, 1997,
proposes to add seven additional wire centers to its expanded interconnection service after receiving
bona fide requests.  No petitions have been filed against this transmittal. 

     2.   Transmittal No. 1906 raises the same issues regarding rate levels, rate structures, and
terms and conditions of service as those identified in the Physical Collocation Tariff Suspension
Order.  Therefore, Transmittal No. 1906 is suspended for one day, following the effective date, and
will be subject to the investigation initiated in the Physical Collocation Tariff Suspension Order. 
This transmittal will also be subject to an accounting order to facilitate any refunds that may later
prove necessary.

     3.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to Section 204(a) of the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C.  204(a), and Section 0.291 of the 
Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R.  0.291, the physical collocation revisions to Pacific Bell Tariff
F.C.C. No. 128, filed under Transmittal No. 1906, ARE SUSPENDED for one day from the effective
date and an investigation of the referenced tariff transmittal IS INSTITUTED.





     4.   IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, pursuant to Section 204(a) of the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C.  204(a), Pacific Bell shall keep accurate account of all
earnings, costs, and returns associated with the rates that are the subject of this investigation, and of
all amounts paid thereunder and by whom such amounts are paid.

     5.   IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that Pacific Bell SHALL FILE tariff revisions within
five business days of the release date of this Order to reflect this suspension.

     6.   IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that, for the above purposes, we waive Sections 61.56,
61.58, and 61.59 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R.  61.56, 61.58, and 61.59.  Pacific Bell
should cite the "DA" number of the instant Order as the authority for this filing.
