Overview
Under Section 271 of the Telecommunications Act, a Bell Operating Company may not provide in-region long distance services until
it demonstrates to the FCC that it has met legal requirements designed to open the local telecommunications markets in a particular
state to competition.
In considering whether to approve a companys application for long distance authority in a particular state, the FCC must consult
with the Department of Justice and give substantial weight to its assessment of whether the company should be allowed to provide
in-region long distance services. Within the Department of Justice, the Antitrust Division is responsible for reviewing these
applications and consulting with the FCC.
Some applications were denied by the FCC or withdrawn by the applicant and then later refiled. Those states have multiple
evaluations listed below. Further, some applications involve more than one state. For these applications, the Department filed one
evaluation that addressed all of the relevant states.
