PROTESTED TARIFF TRANSMITTALS 
ACTIONS TAKEN
Pursuant to authority delegated under Section 0.291 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. 
§ 0.291, the Competitive Pricing Division of the Common Carrier Bureau has reviewed the 
petitions to reject and the petitions to suspend and investigate the tariff transmittals listed hi this 
Report.
We conclude that none of the parties filing petitions against the tariff transmittals listed 
in this Report have presented compelling arguments that these transmittals are so patently 
unlawful as to require rejection. Similarly, we conclude that none of these parties have presented 
issues regarding these transmittals that raise significant questions of lawfulness which require 
investigation of the tariff transmittals listed in this Report.
Accordingly, the petitions to reject or suspend and investigate the following tariff 
transmittals are denied, and these transmittals will, or have, become effective on the dates 
specified below. Applications for review and petitions for reconsideration of these decisions may 
be filed within 30 days from the date of this public notice in accordance with Sections 1.115 and 
1.106 of the Commission's Rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 1.115, 1.106.
