3060-AH44 202404 Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 3060 Federal Communications Commission FCC Local Telephone Networks That LECs Must Make Available to Competitors

The Commission adopted rules applicable to incumbent local exchange carriers (LECs) to permit competitive carriers to access portions of the incumbent LECs' networks on an unbundled basis. Unbundling allows competitors to lease portions of the incumbent LECs' network to provide telecommunications services. These rules, adopted in dockets CC 96-98, WC 01-338, and WC 04-313, are intended to accelerate the development of local exchange competition.
