AT&T Says FCC Can't Dig Up Trouble in Special Access Because It's Not There

摘要

AT&T said its special access policies have been vindicated by trouble that the FCC reported nhaving in gathering information on the market. The "Commission indicated in an October 6, n2011 filing with DC Circuit Court that the lack of data from the very parties that are asking for nregulatory intervention has ‘impeded’ its investigation," Assistant Vice President Frank Simone nsaid on the company blog. "In fact, the Commission noted that ‘fewer than 10 percent’ of nCOMPTEL’s service provider members submitted data requested by the FCC. Despite this napparent hiccup on the regulatory side of Special Access Street the business side of Special nAccess Street remains bustling with activity. This activity is an indication that things have nbecome even more competitive than even I have been suggesting."
