     LETTER SEEKING CLARIFICATION OF RATE REGULATORY RULES 

     The Commission has received a request for clarification of our rules from the Board of County
Commissioners of Citrus County, Florida ('Citrus County').  Citrus County asks whether a group of homes
within an unincorporated subdivision of the county would be considered a multiple dwelling unit ('MDU') that
is exempt from the uniform rate requirement pursuant to 47 C.F.R. 76.984(c)(2).  

     For purposes of our ex parte rules, this proceeding will be considered as non-restricted pursuant to
Section 1.1206 of the Commission's rules ("Permit-but-disclose proceeding").

     Parties may file responses to the Petition on or before February 25, 2000, and replies on or before
March 3, 2000.  Please place the case identifier, CSR-5514, on all filings.

     The petition is available for public inspection in the Commission's Reference Information Center,
