In Order, FCC 03–36, the Commission adopted rules and regulations designed to eliminate operational barriers to competition in the telecommunications services market and implement certain provisions of Section 251, including the UNE obligations of incumbent LECs. In the Order on Remand, FCC 04–290, the Commission responded to a decision by the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia that vacated the ‘‘sub-delegation’’ of authority to state commissions and vacated and remanded certain nationwide impairment findings, including mass E:\FR\FM\04JAN1.SGM 04JAN1
