IN THE MATTER OF IMPLEMENTATION OF THE LOCAL COMPETITION PROVISIONS OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ACT OF 1996. Took three actions to extend and clarify the temporary constraint adopted in the Supplemental Order. Extended and clarified the temporary constraint identified in the Supplemental Order while it compiled adequate record for addressing the legal and policy disputes. Clarified what constitutes a "significant amount of local exchange service," and clarified that the incumbent local exchange carriers (LECs) must allow requesting carriers to self-certify that they are providing a significant amount of local exchange service over combinations of unbundled network elements, and allowed incumbent LECs to subsequently conduct limited audits by an independent third party to verify the carrier's compliance with the significant local usage requirements. By Supplemental Order Clarification. Dkt No.: CC-96-98. Action by the Commission. Adopted: May 19, 2000. by Order. (FCC No. 00-183).
