Analysis of Proceeding

    In the process of reviewing petitions for reconsideration of the 
Commission's Rules governing passage of Calling Party Number (CPN) on 
interstate telephone calls, we have decided on our own motion that the 
public interest would best be served by temporarily staying 
effectiveness of 47 CFR 64.1601 and 64.1603. Interested parties have 
persuasively argued that no matter how the issues raised in the 
petition for reconsideration are resolved, and even if the Commission 
adheres to its original decision in every material respect, compliance 
will not be possible by April 12, 1995, the effective date specified in 
the March 29, 1994 Report and Order Further Notice of Proposed 
Rulemaking, 59 FR 18318.

Ordering Clauses

    Accordingly, it is ordered, pursuant to Sections 1, 4(i) of the 
Communications Act, 47 U.S.C. 1 and 154(i), that effectiveness of 
Secs. 64.1601 and 64.1603 of the Commission's Rules IS STAYED until 
further notice.
    It is further ordered that this order is effective upon adoption.
