On August 21, 2003, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued its Triennial Review Order (TRO), which adopted new and revised rules aimed at promoting local telephone and broadband competition in CC Docket Nos. 01-338, 96-98, and 98-147. In its revised rules, individual States were required to implement crucial aspects of the TRO related to the unbundling of the incumbent local exchange carrier's (ILEC) network pursuant to 47 U.S.C. § 51(c)(3).On June 16, 2004, as a result of USTA II, the D.C. Court of Appeals issued a mandate to the FCC vacating the rules concerning mass market switching, high-capacity loops, and dedicated transport.

On July 21, 2004, the FCC adopted an Order and Notice of Proposed Rulemaking adopting interim unbundling rules and requesting comment on permanent rules. On December 15, 2004, the FCC adopted new permanent unbundling rules and the text of that order was released on February 4, 2005.
