47 CFR PART 68
[CC Docket Nos. 96-128 and 91-35; DA 97-1793]
Pay Telephone Equipment Grandfathering
AGENCY: Federal Communications Commission.
ACTION: Final rules; correction.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Federal Communications Commission issues a correction to
the previously published final rule in 62 FR 47371, September 9, 1997,
concerning the connection of terminal equipment to the telephone
network. The rule allows certain terminal equipment presently connected
to central-office-implemented payphones to remain connected without
registration. This correction is issued to clarify that the rule
applies to the ``central-office-implemented telephone line'' rather
than the ``central-office-implemented telephone.'' The correction is
intended clarify the distinction between terminal equipment and a
central-office-implemented telephone line.
EFFECTIVE DATE: October 5, 1997.
