         STATES THAT HAVE CERTIFIED THAT THEY REGULATE POLE ATTACHMENTS

                              WC Docket No. 10-101

   The state of Arkansas certifies that it has issued and made effective
   rules and regulations implementing its regulatory authority over pole
   attachments, including a specific methodology for such regulation which
   has been made publicly available in the state. Pursuant to Section
   1.1414(b) of the Commission's rules on pole attachments, the Commission
   gives public notice of receipt of Arkansas's certification. Certification
   by a state preempts the Commission from accepting pole attachment
   complaints under Subpart J of Part 1 of the Rules.

   Also pursuant to Section 1.1414(b), the Commission compiles and publishes
   from time to time a listing of states which have provided certification.
   The following states have certified that they regulate rates, terms, and
   conditions for pole attachments, and, in so regulating, have the authority
   to consider and do consider the interests of subscribers of cable
   television services, as well as the interests of the consumers of the
   utility services. Moreover, these states have certified that they have
   issued and made effective rules and regulations implementing their
   regulatory authority over pole attachments, including a specific
   methodology for such regulation which has been made publicly available in
   the state. The Commission establishes a new docket, WC Docket No. 10-101,
   to collect and maintain state pole attachments certifications and addenda.
