Synopsis of Order

    Pursuant to Section 8 of the Cable Television Consumer Protection 
and Competition Act of 1992 (1992 Cable Act), Public Law 102-385, the 
Commission established customer service standards which are subject to 
enforcement by local franchising authorities. Federal Register document 
published on April 19, 1993, 58 FR 21107, 47 CFR 76.309. Petitions 
seeking reconsideration of the adoption of particular aspects of the 
customer service standards were filed by the National Cable & 
Telecommunications Association (NCTA) and the Coalition of Small System 
Operators (Coalition). Due to the passage of time, and with no 
objections put forth by petitioners, we are dismissing the NCTA and 
Coalition petitions without prejudice.

Federal Communications Commission.
