FCC Amends Pricing Obligations in AT&T/BellSouth Merger

The FCC decided to revise one of the conditions imposed on the merger between AT&T and BellSouth. Specifically, the FCC will require AT&T post-merger to comply with the pricing obligations of certain Special Access Conditions regardless of the pricing decisions of other incumbent local exchange carriers (LECs). Second, the FCC will reduce the duration of this Special Access Condition from 48 months to 39 months.
