SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 27, 2004 Global Crossing filed a 
petition for declaratory ruling with the Commission seeking 
clarification of the meaning and application of two provisions of the 
Southwestern Bell Telephone, L.P. interstate access tariff. On November 
12, 2004, SBC filed a petition for declaratory ruling with the 
Commission seeking affirmation that its tariff permits it to use the 
telephone numbers of the calling and called parties to determine 
whether to bill long distance carriers interstate or intrastate 
terminating switched access rates for wireless originated long distance 
calls when there is no accurate or reliable information included in the 
call detail. The Commission subsequently sought comment on the 
petitions. On April 20, 2006, Global Crossing filed a letter 
withdrawing its petition. AT&T, Inc. filed a letter withdrawing its 
petition on April 21, 2006. The Global Crossing and SBC petitions are 
dismissed without prejudice. This proceeding will be terminated
