ORDER ON MERITS
HINKLE, District Judge.
These consolidated actions present a challenge under the Telecommunications Act of 1996, 47 U.S.C. §§ 251-52, to a decision of the Florida Public Service Commission with respect to the terms and conditions under which the defendant incumbent local exchange carrier must provide services and make facilities and network elements available to the plaintiff competitor. I uphold the Florida Commission’s basic pricing methodology but vacate its decision in certain respects for further explanation or consideration.
