   Adopted:  October 4, 2002            Released:  October 8, 
2002

By the Chief, Market Disputes Resolution Division, Enforcement 
Bureau:

     1.   On October 31, 2000, Knology, Inc. (``Knology'') filed 
a Petition for Temporary Stay,1 asking the Commission to issue an 
order staying Georgia Power Company's attempt to increase the 
annual pole attachment rate it charges Knology.

     2.   On November 21, 2001, the Cable Services Bureau2 
released an order granting the Petition ``pending a status report 
by the parties concerning their negotiation in good faith of a 
new pole attachment rate agreement in accordance with the 
Commission's rules.''3

     3.   Since that time, the parties have been engaged in 
negotiations to arrive at an interim settlement of their pole 
attachment rate dispute.  They recently reported that their 
negotiations have been successful, and, on October 2, 2002, they 
filed a Joint Motion to Dismiss the Petition with prejudice and 
to terminate the Commission's Stay Order.4

     4.   We are satisfied that granting the Joint Motion will 
serve the public interest by promoting the private resolution of 
disputes and by eliminating the need for further litigation and 
the expenditure of further time and resources of the parties and 
this Commission.

     5.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to sections 1, 
4(i), 4(j), and 224 of the Communications Act of 1934, as 
amended, 47 U.S.C. §§ 151, 154(i), 154(j), and 224, and the 
authority delegated in sections 0.111 and 0.311 of the 
Commission's rules, 47 C.F.R. §§ 0.111 and 0.311, that the Joint 
Motion IS GRANTED.

     6.   IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the Petition for Temporary 
Stay IS DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE and that the proceeding IS 
TERMINATED.
