                                     ORDER

   Adopted: September 1, 2009 Released: September 1, 2009

   By the Acting Chief, Enforcement Bureau:

    1. In this Order, we cancel a proposed forfeiture in the amount of twenty
       thousand dollars ($20,000) issued to Pilgrim Telephone, Inc.
       ("Pilgrim"). On February 24, 2009, the Bureau issued to Pilgrim a
       Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture ("Omnibus NAL") based on
       Pilgrim's apparent violation of section 222 of the Communications Act
       of 1934, as amended (the "Act"), section 64.2009(e) of the
       Commission's rules, and the Commission's EPIC CPNI Order  by failing
       to timely file an annual compliance certification with the Bureau.

    2. Upon review of the record, and based upon additional information
       provided by Pilgrim, we agree with Pilgrim that it was not required to
       file a CPNI certification for calendar year 2007. During the 2007
       calendar year, Pilgrim was not a telecommunications carrier.
       Accordingly, we find that Pilgrim did not violate section 222 of the
       Act, section 64.2009(e) of the Commission's rules, or the Commission's
       EPIC CPNI Order. Consequently, we conclude that no forfeiture should
       be imposed.

    3. ACCORDINGLY, IT IS ORDERED that, pursuant to section 503(b) of the
       Communications Act of 1934, as amended ("Act"), and sections 0.111,
       0.311 and 1.80(f) (4) of the Commission's rules, that the proposed
       forfeiture in the amount of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) issued
       to Pilgrim Telephone, Inc. in the February 24, 2009 Omnibus Notice of
       Apparent Liability for Forfeiture IS CANCELLED.

    4. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that a copy of this Order shall be sent by First
       Class Mail and Certified Mail Return Receipt Requested to Pilgrim, to
       its attorney of record, attn: Walter Steimel, Greenberg Traurig, LLP,
       2101 L Street, NW, Suite 1000, Washington, DC 20037.
