MEMORANDUM OPINION AND ORDER
Adopted: November 20, 1996; Released: November 21, 1996

Carrier Bureau:
1. On February 16, 1994, Teleport Denver, Ltd. (TDL) filed the above-captioned 
complaint against US West Communications, Inc. (USWC). In its complaint, TDL alleged that, 
inter alia, USWC, in seeking to double-charge TDL for construction of its collocation space and 
provision of power, had violated Sections 201 (a), 201(b), 203(a), 203(b), and 203(c) of the 
Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. §§ 201(a), 201(b), 203(a), 203(b), 203(c). On November 4, 
1996, the parties filed a joint motion to dismiss the complaint with prejudice, stating that they 
had negotiated a mutually satisfactory settlement.
2. We are satisfied that granting the parties' joint motion to dismiss the complaint 
with prejudice will serve the public interest by eliminating the need for further litigation and the 
expenditure of further time and resources by the parties and the Commission.
3. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Sections 1, 4(i), 40), and 208 of the 
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, 47 U.S.C. §§151, 154(i), 1540), 208, and the 
authority delegated in Section 0.291 of the Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. § 0.291, that the Joint 
Motion to Dismiss the above-captioned complaint IS GRANTED.
